Tuning your club to your swing is a decent temporary fix. But for long term, I would much rather tune my swing. Right now I have to place my driver’s head on the far side of the ball, and the face parallel to the ground to correct for my slice. That is some severe closure on the club. I have been watching many videos to fix this issue, and think I have found one. I hope it’s just in my grip and release. We’ll see next course.
Warning these tips are ridiculas for beginner golfers, Its better to fix the problem rather than buying equipment that does that for you, then what happens if you actually improve and become a good golfer? Your left with Clubs that will give you a hook, What an idiot!
Actually, I think they are really good tips for any level of golfer. Having less tension & making smaller swings without a ball can both help address the “problem” of an open club face. I also know numerous professional tournament players that employ strong grips to help straighten out their ball flight. As for custom club-fitting, much like fingerprints, we all have our own unique swings. Professionals grind & bend their clubs to their liking…it’s only smart for amateurs to do the same.
You can also be a good golfer and still have a swing with “problems”. Watch “The Strangest Swings in All of Golf” video on YouTube.
Warning you are a fucking idiot. Why don’t you learn to spell before trying to give other people advice? (ridiculous you moron) And he gave 5 tips, not the only one you mentioned. He told you 4 things to fix before mentioning the equipment. You sir, are an idiot, stop making posts.
Hi, I played yesterday and followed your tips. I cut my score by a 3rd and won the game!!!! Not sure who was more suprised, my mates or me
Many thanks!

Serious question. Wouldn’t an open club face make you push the ball directly of the tee? What if the ball starts in the direction you are aiming and dramatically slices right from there? I do this. Could this be that my club head is square at impact, but I’m putting an outside to inside swing on it? If so, how do I fix this?
Have you ever been custom fit for your lie angles? If your shots are going to the right, your swing “may” be fine and your clubs are just a little too flat. Tiger actually has his irons bent up 1 degree of standard to fit his swing.
An open club face relative to your swing path could cause a push…it could also cause slice spin…or both.
Hehe, I keep running out of space trying to answer this. :-p Send me a private message if you like and I can explain further and answer your questions.
C’mon dude. Everyone knows the fastest way to cure a slice is to aim way left.
great video!
i agree i like my fade
I had the exact same problem, it’s likely an “over the top” slice, caused by your hands/club taking the backswing on one plane, then swinging down on a different plane that is much more vertical than the backswing. what made immediate improvement on mine was to involve the torso more on the back swing. make sure your rib cage and shoulders turn away from the target on your back swing, and concentrate on a less vertical downswing
@sertshark the more left you aim the bigger the slice
all this guy is telling you is to cheat around the problem doing inconsistant little changes that will in turn, make things worse. why doesnt he address the hips gettin thru first? why doesnt he address swing plane? wtf is this guy doing?
@treyknafla – What I am doing is providing perfectly legal suggestions based on good logic and reasoning to help people address their slices.
I don’t talk about the hips getting through first or the swing plane because one can get their hips through first and/or be on plane and still hit a slice. Doing either of these won’t necessarily straighten out a golfer’s ball flight.
@jaacobbowden – no, what you are doing is putting out improper ways to create even worse habits for people to create. the hips are the cause of the inside out swing plane…. 95% of the the golfers out there come over the top because the swing plane is off. the other 5% swing to hard to even worry about the plane and have to do these little bad “habits” you are talking about. just saying, if you are going to give advice, give solid advice on how to really cure the slice, not temporarily fix it
OVER THE TOP is the most common cause. Here’s a tip to feel what it’s like to come back on plane. Assume the address position with only a golf ball in your right hand. Imagine a line about five inches in front of your feet parallel to your foot alignment. With a shoulder turn, swing your arms back then come through and roll the ball down the line with an under hand bowling type roll. This is what your right arm and right shoulder feel like in the swing.
Good tips, except for the closed club face, you are assuming that the swing is consistent. Most of the time the issue is with inconsistency with the swing but none the less some good stuff here and good explanations.
@sertshark eh no say a person who slices the ball gets on like the pga tour they arent going to being aiming like 40 yards left while all the other competitors are hitting the ball straight
@sertshark also sometimes you may hit the ball straight and end up out of bounds or in the rough etc.
@sertshark work for me today!
Also, great way to help get your club face closed WITHOUT changing the angle of your club face is using the SPLIT HAND DRILL.

That is a great video. I normally have a weak grip and when I try and power my driver I have a huge banana slice. I think a stronger grip for my driver will be great but keep my weak grip on my irons because I hit my irons dead straight.
Thanks you so much
