How You Can Quickly Cure a Golf Slice

Let's get straight down to business so you can fix your golf slice quickly and effectively. The first thing you need to do is understand the contributing factors.

Somewhere within you swing, grip and posture you're cutting across the ball. So you will need to address each component so that you can correct the problem.

Let's start with your address; you need to get your body aligned with the target line. Start with your shoulders; visualize a ladder pointing to the target with the ball on one side and your shoulders and hips on the other side.

To help with this, in the case that you are a right hander keep your right foot pointing straight at 90 degrees, you can open it slightly once you are aligned so as to enable more hip rotation.

Keep your shoulders and body aligned with the other side of the ladder where the ball is positioned. The ball should be in a position where it helps you to remain square.

The next thing you need to check is your grip, if it is weak or strong you may continue to slice the ball. To prevent this, grip the club in your fingers and get your V's pointing to your right shoulders.

Do not grip the club too tight so you can let the club do the work and not your hands. Get the big muscles into your swing as they are more consistent than the smaller muscles and are less likely to deviate throughout the swing.

Practice this on the driving range and you will see big improvements.
