Golf tip: Quick feet will stop you slicing

Golf tip: Quick feet will stop you slicing

When a right-handed golfer slices, the left-hand side of their body opens up too much and stops the weight from transferring onto the front foot. (Odyssey crimson series 550 Putter )Think of the classic finishing position of someone in your regular group who slices. Their weight is trapped on the back foot with the right foot firmly planted on the ground.

There are two ways to control a slice, either by disciplining the shoulders to stay square, which I'm sure most of you have probably tried, or by changing the way the feet work which stop the shoulders from spinning open.

If you can copy the foot action of a natural drawer of the Odyssey Crimson Series 660 Putter - like Tom Watson or Greg Norman - it will tend to make the shoulders stay squarer for longer.

As Norman comes into the ball his right foot starts to slide towards the left. Rather than being trapped on the back foot, this foot action drives the weight forward stopping the shoulders from spinning open.

When you next hit some balls try sliding the right foot directly towards the left along the ground so that at the moment of impact it actually touches the left foot. It will require only a few shots to understand the feel but when you do, you will find your shoulders working in a much better way.

Odyssey crimson series 770 Putterfeatures tour-inspired head shapes and Odyssey's patented insert technology, giving golfers putters that provide great feel and performance on the greens. Each putter is constructed of 431 stainless steel and features the Crimson Stronomic insert that generates firm feedback and responsiveness. Alignment lines on each putter increase accuracy and consistency so more putts can find their way into the cup.

In words, it is amodified mallet with a crank-neck hosel and full shaft offset featuring aiming channels for more ease in lining up putts to increase confidence and accuracy.
