How To Fix A Golf Slice - 2 Keys To Fixing A Golf Slice

Key 1-Grip

Key 1-Grip

Many amateurs, in a vain attempt, to copy their professional heroes adopt a grip that is suited to a, well, a professional. Amateurs must realize that the pro golfer has been hitting golf balls from a very early age. And millions of golf balls.

So they have a fast hand action and release through impact that they don't have to work at. They do it subconsciously, without thinking, because of the millions of balls they have hit and don't have to think about it. But the amateur golfer, with a job and a family and other demands on his time, may well get into trouble with this ultra neutral grip and will see better results with a strong grip.

A strong grip is one which involves you turning both hands to the right on the grip of the club..and the 'v' formed by the thumb and first finger should point to the right shoulder, or even further right if you are trying to fix a bad slice.

Key 2-Swing Path

A lot of the time the slice is caused by a cutting action across the ball, with the path of the swing from outside the ball target line to inside this line in the through swing. This swing path must be corrected and you will have to swing from in to square to in or even from in to out initially if you have a bad case of the slice or banana ball.

There is no doubt whatsoever that if you employ a strong grip and an inside to out swing you will NOT slice the ball. Indeed you will start hitting a hook pretty soon. But the extra distance you will gain will make your corrections to fix a golf slice well worth while.
