Mostly golf beginners surrounded with golf slice problems and they always trying efforts to resolve the golf slice. Here I am going to mention the main reason behind the golf slice.
First I would like to discuss what’s golf slice?
The golf slice most commonly occurs when the clubface is open relative to the swing path and/or when the swing follows an “out to in” or “over the top” swing path.
Reason behind the golf slice –
1.Your body is aligned too far left of the target (which may cause you to swing the club from out to in or “over the top” causing the golf ball to start left, but spin far right after impact – due to clockwise spin imparted on ball).
2.Irrespective of body alignment, you swing path can be out-to-in or worse, out-to-in with an open clubface again starting the ball left but spinning it far right.
3.Your grip could be too “weak” which means your golf grip position is left of neutral which tends to open the clubface. If everything else is correct in your golf swing and you have a weak golf grip, then you may simply push the ball to the right of the target – not a big deal. But combined with improper alignment or swing path, an open club face can result in a killer slice.
How you can fix the golf slice–
1.Align parallel to the target line. To help visualize, think of standing on a railway line where the ball is placed on the furthest rail (the “target line”) and your body is set up parallel to the target line along the closest rail (the “body line”).
2.“Strengthen” your grip to a neutral position with a square clubface.
3.Take a slow motion practice swing and ensure that your swing path is not “over the top” or out to in, but rather down the target line toward the target.
4.Check your impact position and make sure that your clubface is square at impact.
I hope all these golf tips will help you to improve your golf slice and to hit perfect golf shot.
