3 Simple Ways To Fix Your Slice | GUARANTEED
Most players when they try to hit a nice straight shot, will end up releasing the club and it won't get vertical until about waist high in the follow through. Lemme actually turn this way so you can see a little bit better if I'm hitting toward the camera. Most players visualize that that club face should be vertical or straight up and down.
When it's about waist ties, I'm coming through here. If you want to hit a straight shot or you want to hit a little bit of a draw, it should actually be about like, I know that sounds crazy, but that's the proper way to release the golf club, and you'll actually notice a lot of pros as they're coming through and they hit this golf ball.
The toe is already released around closed past parallel when the club's about 45 degrees in front. So that toe is closing and it's releasing down. So what I want you to do to get rid of that slice to start to finally hit that draw is do a few practice swings where you make a little half practice swing.
A full back swing. You pause when the club's 45 degrees in front. That would be a little bit of a fade. That vertical face. When I pause this club's swinging 45 degrees in front. Again, I'm gonna go ahead and rotate it a little bit more. That would be a power draw there that would really be turning over from right to left when I'm doing this.
So this is a little bit of a straight shot. This is a fade. That's a nice power draw. So if you're struggling to hit that, It slices a little too much. I want you to go ahead and really exaggerate hitting that power draw. Really letting that release here. So once you get that in your swing for four or five times, little practice swings.
Step up to the golf ball. I don't want you to worry about anything else other than recreating that release point out in front. And that's gonna make that ball a lot easier to get it to turn over from right to left. Let's give it a whirl here. There we go. Really nice and straight. Just drew a. Back actually into the wind.
So a really good shot there. Now piece number two is a really simple one to work on the path. I like to fix the face first. I'd like you to go ahead and get that face turning on over that face releasing like the pros should be doing. And then once you fix the face, then let's start to swing out to the right.
I find that most players have the face way too open like we talked about here, like that never squaring up as they come through contact, the face is open. So when you try to swing more to the. That ball just goes way to the right and really weak. Let's get that face releasing, hitting a couple of real good hard draws.
Doing the first one. Once you've done that, what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna take about a a foot and a half length, and I'm gonna do it right down my target line here, and I'm gonna set up a head cover about a foot and a half behind the golf ball. That would be on my target line. So if this is my target line, I don't have that lined up perfectly, probably.
I'm going to that orange flag out there. That's my target. I'm gonna put the tip of the head cover right on that line. Then I'm gonna go a foot and a half in this direction and I'm gonna put the tip of my head cover right on that line there too. Now this doesn't have to be absolutely perfect, but this just gives you a pretty good window now to where I wanna swing to the inside of this head cover and I wanna swing to the outside of that head cover.
Now that's pretty exaggerated. I like to exaggerate it first, cuz I'd rather see you get rid of that slice and over draw. then to keep battling the slice for a long time. So let's go ahead and tee one another one up here. And I'm gonna feel the same thing. I'm gonna pair it up with the first feeling. So now I'm gonna get my body leaned a little bit more to the right.
Big key here to be able to split this path. I want my hips to feel like they're closing a little bit, and I wanna feel like my upper body's getting behind this golf ball. You'll see when I do that, that closes me to my target a little bit, and that makes it easier to swing from the. So I've got these two head covers.
As a visual, I'm swinging between those head covers. I've got my release point out in front, which I'm really letting it roll. So as soon as I, I feel like I'm throwing this club, it's gonna release like that. And now with this setup, if you put both those two things together, you're really gonna hit a, a power draw here.
This thing is really gonna start to to move pretty nice from right to left. There we go. And that one was hit. Nice draw started right at the target curve, back left of the target, and that made it really easy. Now those first two are gonna make it easy. This last one is gonna make it super, super easy.
It's actually part of a drill that I have in what I call the MOVE course. So if you're not familiar with the move course, the move course is gonna teach you to shallow out this. Get it from the slot and at the same time square up these wrists very well and early. So when I square up the wrist early, what happens is it closes the club face down.
And if I square these wrists up early, it makes it so much easier now for to come from the slot, to have great lag, to be nice and shallow. And this club is in a very strong position to where now when I release it, it's automatically gonna want to turn over. Like we talked about with the pros. You almost can't stop it from turning over if you just let the momentum.
Go. You're always gonna have that nice tight draw. What you want to do is follow a video that I have in there called the tennis racket drill. I'm gonna give you the first piece of this drill, but you'll wanna go through that whole course to get the full thing. Now, when you come halfway into your downswing, I don't want this toe to be vertical.
That will be vertical, straight up and down. I want that toe to be turned down a little bit. And when you do that, that actually bows the left. And if I have my right hand on there, that cups my right hand, has it kind of bend back toward the knuckles. So what I want you to do is to go halfway down, pause there and give me four or five rotations of that club, and that's what you feel like you're doing in the golf swing.
As I'm swinging through the contact, I'm doing this, I'm releasing that face. That's what gets the toe to turn down like the pros that we talked about. That's what allows you to swing from the inside and know that golf ball is coming back from right to left. So once you do these three tips, that's fantastic.
You're gonna hit the ball great today, you're gonna be well on your way to hitting that nice draw, but let's solidify it. Let's make it to where you have a consistent draw. Every single time we get rid of that steep club shaft, we get nice and shallow from the inside. We get rid of that ball that. Weekly fades out to the right.
It's really aggravating. Have that ball drawing back nice and tight with a lot of power on it, and I'm gonna teach you exactly how to do that for a lifetime in the move course. So once you do this video, If you're a top speed golf member, go to the instruction tab, go to the TSG system, then go to the move section there, and I'm gonna talk about how to shallow that club out.
And that's gonna go absolutely perfect with what we had here today, but it's gonna build on it with some more secrets that I have in there just like we have with the tennis racket drill. Once you learn to shallow this club out, get it in the slot and release the face like we talked about here today.
Golf's pretty daggon easy. I'll see you in the move.
