Know how you can fix the golf slice A common golf swing fault is to "slice" the golf ball. For right handed golfers, a golf slice occurs when the golf ball starts left of the target once struck, but finishes well right of the target.

Common causes of the golf slice include an open clubface at impact, too "weak" of a golf grip, poor body weight transfer and/or an out-to-in or "over the top" swing.To fix the golf slice, the golfer should first ensure that he or she is properly aligned toward the target with hips, shoulders and feet all square to the target line.

Third, the golfer should ensure a neutral golf grip position and a square clubface at impact.Practice Drills to Fix the Golf SliceTo fix the golf slice, top PGA teaching professionals recommend practice drills that help incorporate the proper golf swing mechanics into the golf swing and...more
