Cure Your Golf Slice Quickly

Cure Your Golf Slice Quickly If you are out on the golf course and develop a golf slice, here are 3 quick ways to cure that dreaded left-to-right banana shot. Sometimes even low-handicap golfers can suddenly start slicing their tee shots without warning. The driver is a very unforgiving club, so even the smallest flaw in technique can be exposed and amplified. So, what do you do if you are halfway through a round and out of nowhere start slicing the ball from the tee? Well, the first thing to do is stay calm. As you are probably aware, if you become tense about things your muscles in turn become tense - and tense muscles are one of the main reasons why someone can develop a golf slice in the first place. So. assuming that you keep yourself relaxed about the situation, what can you do to cure your immediate problem? Well, one thing that you must not do at this stage is start to analyse your golf swing. The time to make any adjustments to your swing is when you are practising, not during a round. All you will achieve by changing your swing during a round will be to become more tense and disjointed. This will lead to worse shots, even more tension, and a basic downward spiral leading to a bad round. Here are 3 things you can do if you if you develop a go lf slice during a round: 1. Strengthen your grip. Even experienced players who know that a weak grip can lead to slicing will often think to look at their swing during a round rather than making a simple grip change and looking at their overall technique later on the practice range. For, novices to strengthen your grip you need to shift the "V" that is made by your thumb and index finger of your right hand. As you look down at your right hand on the club you need to shift this "V" to the right so that it points up more at your right shoulder turning it away from your chin. (Reverse for left-handers) 2. Do not show your chest to early to the line of the shot. What do I mean by this? Well, this little tip can just help you to keep you attacking the ball on the right swing path. At the finish of your golf shot your chest should point in the target that you were aiming for. With this tip just try to delay letting your chest follow through as quick to point towards the target. This will just help to keep the club on the right path and prevent a golf slice. 3. Aim further left. "Are your serious!" I hear you ask. Yes - even though nobody likes playing with a slice, as mentioned previously the practice area is the place to work out what is going wrong in your swing. During a round it is much better to accept the swing that you have for the day and play with it, compensating accordingly. However, one thing that you must be careful of is that if you do decide to aim further left is to align your whole body towards this point. The reason being if you just aim the clubface further and leave your stance pointing straight you will more than likely change your swing path and accentuate your golf slice.
