Golf Slice Advice

.

Read this article for information on how to fix your golf slice.

Slicing is the golfer's worst nightmare. Admit it, playing golf with a slice takes away the joy from the game, yet some people keep on slicing for years. The problem is not that complicated, all it takes is will to do it and knowledge, otherwise you will never experience golf to the fullest. So if you want to reach higher levels in golf, pay attention to the lines bellow.

Let's start with an explanation of what golf slice is and what are the causes. Here is the mechanical explanation behind a golf slice. Slice is a term describing a specific left-to-right type of trajectory of the golf ball for right-handers, opposite for lefties. A right-hander or a lefty, when a slice occurs, the ball ends up way right or left from the target area. If you examine the game of pro golfers, you will notice that they try to hit the ball squarely and straight, otherwise the ball wills spin which ultimately results in a slice.

To avoid slicing the ball, try to keep the club face squared during the swing until the very moment of impact. If you twist the club in left or right direction, you will slice. To achieve the ideal direction of the club face, you must have a correct grip, proper body setup and good body action.

To produce the perfect shot, you need to hold the golf club with the right pressure, position your hands correctly on the handle and perform a smooth swing. It's very important how you make the swing. Under or over-swing results in a slice.

To achieve a consistent and sharp golf swing, it's all about balance and rhythm. If you are nervous and perform the motion too fast, then you will loose your balance resulting in poor ball flight. Expert golfers usually say - "swing easy and hit hard." Having a right setup is also an essential element. You must have your weight equally balanced between your left and right foot.

At the end of the day, don't forget that golf is a mental sport. 90% of your game depends on your level of concentration. You must clear your head of all problems and stay focus on the golf course. When you become one with your swing, then you will produce the perfect shot.

Of course, nothing happens overnight. Even the best system doesn't provide instantaneous results. A lot of good and proven systems can be found online, but just buying one or several of them won't fix it for you. Practice makes perfect.
