Golf Swing Mechanics – Discover How to Fix Your Slice Fast
and Easy
Are you a beginning golfer or an avid golfer that is sick of
slicing the golf ball? There are certain golf swing
mechanics that cause you to slice the golf ball and having
the knowledge of what causes this will help you correct it.
Here is an explanation that should help and a drill to help
you as well.
Before we get into the explanation you should know that in
order to really get good enough to stop slicing you will
need much more than just this article. You either need to
get professional instruction from a club pro or you need to
get yourself a good step-by-step plan of attack like the one
at the bottom of this article. It is worth the few minutes
of your time to check it out.
So what is causing you to slice the ball?
First, you have to understand that there are only two things
that control the direction of the golf ball and that is your
swing path and your club face angle. The path is responsible
for you pulling, pushing, or hitting the ball straight, and
the face of the club is responsible for the hook, draw,
straight shot, fade, and slice.
Now with knowing that you need to fix your face angle at
impact. If you are pull slicing, then you also have a path
issues and your path is outside in. If you are push slicing
(very ugly!), then you have an inside out swing path. Both
of these have an open face, which is causing your slice.
The Drill
Now to work on learning how not to slice we have to fix your
face angle and your path, most likely. You can do this by
setting up a shoebox about a half inch from the ball and
hitting the ball without hitting the shoebox. You may go
through a few shoe boxes before you perfect this, but it
will work.
