The Tips to Fix a Slice: Use Your Right Palm

Let's use your right palm to fix your slice. If you are left- handed, focus on your left palm.

 

Clubface Angle and Your Right Palm

 

The cause of your slice is the open face at impact. If you can control your clubface angle during the swing, you'll be able to hit any kind of shots you want. But it's hard to do.

 

The clubhead moves at a fast speed during the swing, and it's hard to control. So focus on your right palm instead.

 

In this drill, you don't need a club. Pretend that your right palm is your clubface.

 

1. Put your left hand on the waist.

2. Swing back with your right hand.

3. At the top, try to face your right palm toward the sky.

4. On the downswing, you will have to close your right palm.

5. When your right hand reaches waist height, try to face your right palm toward the ground.

 

At impact, you should feel like your right palm is facing the ground as well.

 

David Leadbetter said that the right palm mirrors the clubface. So by squaring up your right palm, you will be able to square your clubface.

 

Some players have stronger grip, so your right palm doesn't exactly mirrors the clubface. But it's close. It's a good idea to use your right palm to control your clubface.

 

When you actually hit balls, you should recreate the feeling you got from this drill. If you do exactly, you should be able to turn your slice into a draw.
