Do you struggle with trying to correct golf slice in your game? Your not alone the majority of of amateur golfers especially just starting to play the game of golf have this very same problem.
Well, I'm here to tell you there is hope! In this article I'm going to give you 3 things that you can use that will help straighten out that dreaded banana ball.
1) Set Up Square At The Address Position At address, your shoulders, hips, knees, and feet should be parallel to your target line (the imaginary line from the ball to your target).
Practice Tip - place a club across your toes and the other key spots to check for proper alignment.
2) Use A Stronger Grip Most players who struggle to correct golf slice in their swing typically use a weak grip.
By using a weak grip it doesn't allow the hands to roll over at impact, so the club face is open.
When you first make contact this is an issue when it meets the ball.
By strengthening your grip will encourage a proper "release" of the hands.
Practice Tip - - Turn your hands away from the target so that at address you have the "Vs" formed by the thumb and forefinger of each hand pointing toward your back shoulder.
3) Hold The Golf Club Like An Egg The last tip on how to correct golf slice is to treat the golf club like an egg.
You may think that this contradicts the last tip of using a stronger grip.
Well, it doesn't you can still use a strong grip but still hold the golf club loosely.
By holding the golf club like an egg will allow the hands to properly get through the ball at impact.
This is critical when it comes to closing that club face at impact.
Practice Tip - When your on the range take a bucket of balls and just lightly grip your club and practice rotating the hands at impact.
Swing slowly during this drill because the harder you swing the more chance you have at leaving the club face open.
