Clubface Golf – How To Correct Your Slice 1/7

By
Easy AdSense by Unreal

Dave Wesley and Steve Egbert from Clubface Golf explain what causes a slice and provide expert step by step instructions on how to correct golf your slice in this 7 part series. The basic reason is that the clubface is open to the path it is travel-ing on at the moment of impact. This in turn puts slice spin on the ball causing the ball to curve to the right

This is worth watching. I watched all seven and my slice is gone. Not joking, and I don’t work for them! It’s all in the grip.

Hi Dave,
Thank You,
I’ve been sliciing for 25 years off and on.
Even with Cleveland Hibores. Tried changing my grip to what you recommended this morning.
I have stop slicing my woods, in fact I had a slight draw. Used my old grip on irons as I alwats hit them straight.Just could never figure it out with the wood. It’s so nice to hit one down the middle after my first try. I’m look forward to play again later in the week. No more slicing woods off the tee = a more enjoyable game. Thanks.

What he show as a ‘closed’ position is the actual SQUARE position. Align like that, and you get things right.

But, then, many golfers LIKE to use an somewhat open clubface in the backswing, since it’s an power acc closing it going into the ball. Many pga players was taught this (oldschool) way, and has the coordination of hands to use it. Most amateurs don’t, and benefits most from totally passive hands in the swing. What I meant is, there’s really no rights or wrongs in golf swings as long as they do the stuff for the player using it. :)

forget opening and closing the clubface; it is all pre determined by the way you set up whether or not you will slice the ball – in particular the grip – if you don’t know how your grip affects your club path/clubface you will never really GET GOLF!!!!!!!!!!

I’m a novice golfer. My slice was so bad but very predictable. If I had the room I could get it in the middle of the fairway……but the ball would go 250 in the air to land 190-200. Using this set of videos…..my grip was all wrong. (again i’m a novice….never a lesson) I just played a round on Friday and was hitting my 3 wood straight as an arrow. Once 235 and once 220. Still slicing my driver a bit but I think i’m going to stick with the 3-wood until I get a little better. Thanks!

the best lessons is geting to the range and practicing and trying to fix it on your own.
i have a wicked slice and it helped me to slow it all down a little and try to swing smother the ball may not go as far but at least its straight.
get out the and practice thats what really helps your game.

These videos are great! Since watching these videos about a month ago my game has improved dramatically! The ball is going straighter with my long irons and woods and I have been able to reduce my number of strokes per hole because I am not losing balls and having to take a penalty. I am now working on getting more power but I am definitely playing more consistently. Thank you so much for these videos.

It doesn’t matter if your clubface is open half-way back, or at the top of the swing. The clubface position is only ever important at IMPACT! Simply turn the hands to the left (Anti-clockwise) through the shot to instantly cure a slice! Peasy!

The reason for the slice is the open club face, but the hard part is knowing how to consistently and correctly close the club face during the swing. Interesting tips in the video though, thanks! :)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, It could be your grip or an outside in swing or your stance or bla, blah, blah. The simple fact is that whatever your swing flaw might be when your coming through the ball your club face is creating negative side-spin. The best way to eliminate that is to use some sort of lubricant to reduce that side-spin. There are plenty of new anti-slice coatings on the market that will help reduce your slice that don’t take months of practice or cost hundreds maybe thousands of dollars to correct.
