Golf Slice, Fix Your Golf Slice Quick and Easy.
How to fix a golf slice is going to be a thought on many amateur golfers' minds.
Reports reveals over 80% of all amateur golfers slice the ball. Right now there
have been more training aids, drills and tips to fix the golf slice that I can't
even begin to count.
If you hit a golf slice, have you considered training; paid for any kind of
teaching aids, and done several drills only to still hit a slice? What a
frustrating situation! Do you fully grasp what's producing your golf slice?
A golf slice is caused by the clubface coming across the ball from outside the
target line, creating side-spin on the ball. Upon first thought,a golf slice may
seem like a mechanical issue. And it is…but if you dig a little deeper, you'll
find it's a 'physical' issue.
You see…your body dictates your ability to swing the club efficiently. If your
body has 'physical limitations', your swing will not be mechanically sound and
swing mistakes will certainly show up.
In the golf swing there are various compensations for shortage of proper
mechanics. If you cannot make a 90 degree shoulder turn on the backswing, you
will do what ever it takes to feel like you are making a full turn.
A good example of this would be to rotate your hips beyond the desired 45
degrees to enable your body to make a full backswing. What this does is rob you
of power. You have no torque built up in your core to unleash into the ball at
impact.
The same thing with a golf slice.
A golf slice is caused by the upper body getting ahead of the lower body,
generating an "over-the-top" move, which in turn results in your clubface
slashing across the ball and creating side-spin.
Your first tendency will probably be to take a lesson to fix this. If that
doesn't work, you might buy a training aid. If that doesn't work you'll buy an
"offset" driver to help eliminate your golf slice.
Does this sound familiar?
Now the real answer! Take a break on the instruction. Don't purchase anymore
training aids. And keep your normal driver in your bag.
You need to work on your core rotation flexibility to have the ability to
initiate the downswing with your lower body first, in order to avoid the upper
body getting ahead of it. It's that simple. The moment you are able to separate
the upper and lower body upon initial move down…you'll see that golf slice
improve substantially.
At this point doesn't that make sense?
Together with repairing your golf slice, you'll add up to 30 yards to your
drives. You will get more roll when the ball lands from a draw ball flight. A
golf slice is a weak shot that does not penetrate the air for maximum distance.
