We’ve been taught the wrong way to stop slicing. I mean, think about it. How many times have you come across the tip, you’ve tried it out to try to improve your slice, and it simply hasn’t worked?

Now you’re a great athlete. I guarantee if you were taught the right way, you’d be able to fix your slice just like that. What is it about the traditional way of trying to stop the slice that doesn’t work?

We’re going to get into that, and then we’re also going to talk about my very simple four-step process. When you follow this, it’s the quickest, easiest way to improve your slice. It really works like magic.

Why does the traditional method of not slicing not work? Well, what’s happening when you slice is you’re coming a little bit over the top, or your swing path is coming out and your club is moving right to left across the ball.

Now I’m exaggerating there, you may not be doing it this much, but that club is moving from right to left across this golf ball. Now when you do this, you’re keenly aware that you have to have your face open.

If this face isn’t open, that ball’s going to go a mile to the left. If I’m coming over the top and I release that face, that ball’s going straight out of bounds left. So I’m not going to do that.

Again, you’re a good athlete, your body senses this, so you hold that face open as you swing to the left, that allows the ball to start kind of down the left side of the fairway and then face into the fairway.

When you do it well, it’s right in the middle of the fairway, you lose a little bit of yardage doing that, but you can still hit some good shots.

Every once in a while it goes a little bit haywire, you lose even more yardage, you don’t hit it very solid, you end up to the right or to the left. It can really cause a lot of problems in your golf swing.

Now the traditional way of saying stop the slice, is by saying let’s swing more inside out, or to the right. Get that inside out path, get this club in the slot here as we’re making the downswing.

The problem with that is as a slicer, you’re aware that the face always needs to be open. Remember, if I swing to the left and I release the face, that ball’s going out of bounds.

By being used to having that face open, now when you sling inside out, that ball not only starts to the right, in the right rough, but then it still slices. We haven’t gotten rid of the slice, and it’s a terrible shot to the right.

Well, again, being that athlete you are, you realize that’s not what you want to do, so you start going back to that over the top again, to get the ball back out in the fairway.

It’s kind of a never-ending cycle between trying to swing inside out, it not working, and then going back to what you’re comfortable with. We’re going to break that process today.

Now one thing that nobody else in any other programs have, and you’ve probably seen a ton of slicing programs. I’ve seen a lot lately charging $97 to teach you how to fix your slice.

I’m not going to do that, I’m not going to charge you anything, you’re going to get it all for free here today. They’re still missing something in those programs. It’s the way that your body naturally learns.

It’s called interleaving practice, and it’s one of the most studied topics in motor learning. I’m going to talk about that in my four-step process, and I tell you what. If you follow along with these drills it doesn’t take hardly any time at all, and you’re never going to slice again.

Let’s go ahead and get started.

All right, so we’re about to jump into this four-step process, but before we do, we really have to understand why we’re doing these four steps.

If we don’t understand the why, what’s going to happen is we’ll try these out, we’ll forget about it a couple days later, we’ll be right back slicing again.

I want you to eliminate the slice forever, and understand the why is a big piece of that. So piece number one is going to be controlling this club face.

You remember that I said when you’re coming over the top, traditionally you have to have that club face open to be able to get that ball to start toward the fairway and not go way left if you’re coming over the top like that.

So you’re very used to having the face open. What we’re going to do, is we’re going to employ a technique called interleaving. It’s also called random practice or variable practice.

It’s been highly studied in motor learning, and what you’re trying to do here is you’re trying to feel the extremes.

We already are used to having the extreme of having the face open, now I need to have the extreme of really closing that face and having it super closed.

I’ve got a couple easy tips that are going to get you to close that face really to extreme. Now hen that’s happening, balls are going to go directly left. That’s a good thing.

We have to get those balls going way left, so that now when we do step two which is going to be swinging more inside out, now it’s going to make sense of why we’d want to swing inside out.

So when you swing inside out now you’re going to be releasing that face, it’s going to start to the right side of the fairway, and then draw back in to the middle of the fairway.

You’re going to have more speed and power, because you’re going to have less loft coming into the club, it’s going to really, the ball’s going to pop off the face, it’s going to be way better.

So again, we’re going to employ interleaving practice there, we already know how to swing to the left, but we’re going to go really extreme and swing way to the left so we can feel that extreme.

We’re going to go really extreme swinging way to the right so that we can feel that. That’s the fastest way to learn. Using those interleaving techniques will takes and weeks off your practice versus hours.

You can really change it like that if you use this. The third step is going to be getting to the ball.

We’re going to talk about why there’s a problem when I use my inside out technique, my inside out swing, now all of a sudden it’s difficult for me to get to the ball for what I’m used to.

There’s a specific way you move your body, some specific drills to be able to reach the ball so you feel comfortable hitting it with some power.

Then finally, the fourth step is we’re going to take that hook that we’ve developed, really starting that ball down the right rough and drawing it back big-time right to left curve, and we’re going to tone that down to a draw.

You follow these four steps, and the whys, you’ll never struggle with that slice again.

All right, so now we’re ready for the fun part. Let’s jump right in here, let’s learn the first piece which is controlling that face.

If I can get the face to open as much as I want and close as much as I want, and really get those extremes, no I have control over this club face, I can get it to do whatever I want it to do.

That’s the goal of this, that’s why we’re going to these extremes so we can feel both ways. Now you’re already comfortable having the face open. So I want you to feel that even more extreme.

Now I’m not going to hit this one very hard, because it’s going to go right into the pond here, but I want you to make a little mini swing.

You could use a driver, you could even do this with a 6 or 7 iron if you want to, we don’t have to do this with a driver.

If you feel a little bit more comfortable, you can start with that and then move to the driver which is a little longer, not as easy to hit.

But I’m going to feel like the face is wide open, so as you swing, I want to feel like the face is pointing directly to the right, and I’m just getting a little 30 or 40-yard shot.

You can see that ball shot off to the right, I still hit it in the water, lost a golf ball, but that’s all right. The second piece here, and we’re going to alternate these.

We’re going to do 10 balls, excuse me 10 swings each, so 20 total swings, in the second one I’m going to really get this ball to go dead to the left, which means my club face is going to be very closed as I’m coming into the shot.

This is not going to be a good golf shot, it’s not even supposed to be really a golf shot, it’s just a face awareness drill. Once you get awareness of this face, now I can do whatever I want to with it.

Here’s the steps to make this work. Number one, you’re going to feel like in the backswing you really rotate these hands clockwise.

If I had a door handle, I’m going to rotate the handle to the left and now the logo of my glove is facing now. If I had it with my right hand, I’m going to turn it to the left, the palm of my hand is facing down.

This would be kind of a normal backswing, I’m going to rotate everything down, now the face is really closed.

If I do that with a golf club, you’ll see that as I go back this would be a normal swing, I’m rotating it until everything’s very closed here.

If I went back down to my impact, that would be face pointing way over to the left there, that’s exactly what we want.

So you’re going to feel like the logo of your glove pointing out, again your hands are turning that doorknob to the left, and everything is very closed here.

As you come down and swing, I want you to visualize the sweet spot of your golf club being all the way on the outside of the golf ball. So if I swung, it would just go almost graze my left leg is the feeling that I’m going to have.

So very closed, closed, closed, closed all the way through. Get to the outside of the golf ball so it goes straight left. Let me show you what that would look like on just a little mini swing here.

So just dead to the left, again, 30, 40 yards is all we’re doing. If you’re seeing this ball barely go to the left, so if I make a swing and the golf ball looks like this, so just a little bit to the left, then I’m not doing nearly enough.

Again, I want to feel like this thing is shooting past my left leg. You’re going to alternate 20 sings. One to the right, one to the left. One to the right, one to the left.

Now the alternation is what’s really key here, because that’s what’s going to allow your brain to feel the differences between face open and face closed. If I just try to do the closed one, and the closed one only, it’s not going to work.

Now if those drills don’t work, and you need to get even more extreme, here I’ve got a couple more tips for you. That was the backswing.

That’s the easiest way to do it, you kind of set it closed in the backswing, and keep it closed coming on through.

If you’re still struggling, we’re going to close it in the backswing, just like we talked about, hands turning to the left, this club face closing, and then we’re going to close it even more in the downswing.

So as you come through, imagine the hands rolling on over. So if you had something between your forearms, I want my forearms to roll over each other, and now you’ll see the face of this club is pointing directly down to the ground.

If I’m going toward the camera here, that would look like this. Close, close, close, everything closed in the backswing, then in the downswing it’s going to look like that.

Face is down, this is logo down, forearms rolled over each other. Closed going back, even more closed coming through to really hook it. Now if you do that, that ball’s going dead left here.

Let me show you one real quick. So again, I’m trying to go more and more extreme. Whatever my feeling has to be is completely fine to make this happen.

So I’m very closed, and then I’m rolling it on over, almost like you’re taking the logo of your glove and twisting it this way.

High handicap golfers tend to take the glove and turn it this way to move the club through contact. That’s a back and forth like that.

Low handicap golfers tend to bow that wrist and turn it this way, so the palm of my hand is up and I’m releasing it. When I add the right hand in there, that’s releasing it that way.

So again, I’m very, very extreme, very exaggerated with this. You can see it’s just going dead to the left. That’s very key that you do that. Do those 20 swings and we’re ready to move on to the next step.

All right, so once we’ve done those reps, and to be honest with you, you don’t have to do 20, 10 would be completely fine as long as they’re successful.

If you’re making them go left, and you’re making them go right, that’s really all we’re after. Once you’ve learned that and done it a few times, it’s pretty easy to do.

You don’t have to just go out there all day and hit a whole bucket like that. Few shots just to get awareness of the face, now you’re ready to move on.

Now the second piece we have to get an awareness of the path now. We know how to close and open the face from the drill we just did, turning the hand closed in the backswing, rotating on through closed in the forward swing.

Now we’re going to have to understand how to get that path way to the right, and then also what causes a path way to the left.

So imagine I’m swinging at this tee here, and I’m going to actually make my path go way to the left.

Imagine that if I was going to keep my feet basically lined up like toward the target here, but I wanted to swing directly 90° to the left.

Well, what I’d have to do, is my upper body would have to shift too far forward. Now all of a sudden, my shoulders would have to open up this way, my foot would obviously have to come off the ground there.

Then I would be able to swing directly to the left. What I want you to do here, seems a little silly, but go ahead and put a tee down as though you were going to hit that ball 90° that way.

So I’m going to set up to where a normal golf shot would be. I’m going to rotate my body to the left, and now all of a sudden, I’m going to swing that direction.

You’ll notice what happens here. Look at my hips, very open. Look at my shoulders up over my front foot. They’re pointing to the left, and that allows me to swing in that direction.

You’re doing that a little bit when you come over the top. Over the top players tend to get out in front of it, the body starts going this way.

My shoulders start getting more over this lead leg, and that promotes in a right to left over the top type path. Let’s go the opposite direction now.

I want you to turn 90° this way like I’m going to hit toward the camera, and I’m going to go ahead and put a tee down there also, just outside my right foot. So again, here’s my normal ball.

Feet are set up like I’m going down the fairway, and now I’m going to go ahead and rotate and I’ll move because I put the tee down in the wrong spot.

I’d have to lift up my left foot, now my chest is way over my right foot. I’d really be able to swing out to the right and hit that way. My weight would be more on my back foot.

If you’re over the top, your weight’s on your left foot. If I’m coming from the inside, my weight stays on this back foot a little longer, and then shifts forward. So you’re naturally going to do all these things.

I could sit here and go over every single little tiny detail about what your feet, your hips, your shoulders, everything would be doing different, but I don’t need to do all that.

All I need to do is put a tee over here, an imaginary ball over here, and get you to make some swings where you’re going to swing directly out to the right. That’s all you’ve got to do, it’s that simple.

So again, 20 swings. We’re going to do one way left, and then immediately go one way to the right. You don’t have to hit a golf ball when doing this, and you don’t even really need the tees, you can do this right from your living room.

Just try to get the swing path 90° that way, 90° that way. Then we’re ready to move on to step number three, because now we’re going to have complete control of the extremes of the path.

All right, so finally there’s an obvious problem with what I’ve taught you so far. When I’m making my swing path to the right, that’s fine, and we all could swing to the right.

But now all of a sudden, our ball would have to be way back here in the stance. If you’re going to swing with a really inside out path, I’d have to have the ball way back here so that I can make that kind of swing direction.

If my ball’s up here where it should be kind of on my left foot with a driver. Now my body’s kind of in the way, I can’t really get to that golf ball.

The reason for that is this, whenever you’re taking your normal swing and we’re a little over the top, remember now my hips are often behind my upper body and my shoulders.

When we did that swing where I was way to the left, that’s exactly what’s going on. When you’re having your over the top swing, that’s what’s happening.

It’s a little bit the upper body is in front of the lower body, and that’s promoting that over the top swing. So this is blocking you, my hips are blocking me from swinging more to the inside.

So try to swing to the inside but I have this bad body alignment, and now my hips are hammed up and they’re in the way. By making the swing 90° to the right, we fix that.

There’s no way you can swing this direction with your hips in the way. I’ve had to clear my hips back this way, my shoulders got to the right of my hips, and now I could swing out in that direction.

That’s something you naturally do when you just try to swing that direction. But, not really going to transfer over to hitting a good golf shot, because I’d have to have my ball way back here to get that big inside out path.

If I wanted a little bit less of an inside out path, I’d have to have it there, and by the time I get back up here again, it feels awkward. So here’s what we’re going to do.

We have to learn to get the body out of the way to promote that inside path. I have to make a lot of room here so that I can hit this ball from the inside and have plenty of room for my club to travel that way.

There’s a very simple drill I have for this. Number one, I’m going to go ahead and set up, this will be my imaginary golf ball that I’m going to hit.

I’m going to put one tee six inches behind that, and another one six inches behind that. I’m going to set up as though this is the golf ball I’m going to hit, this front tee.

Then I’m going to gradually work on swinging to the right and hitting each of those tees as I’m doing that.

So again, I’m going to get the same feeling I had when I was swinging this direction. Really out to the right. I’m going to try to clip this tee.

Now in order to do that, I have to get my hips out of the way. So I really want you to feel like this leg is angled in, and now you’ve created all this space here to allow your arms to swing to the right.

You’ll see I can still get this really extreme, for now let’s go really extreme and get that ball swinging way, or that club swinging way out there to the right and I hit that back tee.

Now I move one tee forward, then I’m going to have to go even more. My hips are going to have to go even more out of the way.

My shoulders are angled back, and now I’ve created all this room to where I can still swing say 45° to the right, and hit that second tee.

There we go, so now my body’s getting out of the way for the first time. We’re getting rid of this motion, and getting in the opposite of that, which is again, I’m going extreme here.

I’m taking advantage of this interleaving to make things faster. Then finally, I’m going to go to this front tee and do the exact same thing.

Again, I have to make huge amounts of space, let my body clear out of the way to be able to hit that tee.

I’m going to swing again, 45° to the right, and you could see now how I could really make an inside-out swing that my hips are out of the way. Let’s put this together now.

We have the club face closing, we now have a new feeling of how to swing inside out, let’s just do both of them at the same time. So let’s grab a golf ball here, and I want you to make a huge hook.

I want you to feel like you’re swinging 45° to the right, way toward this house, I don’t even know if you can see that in the frame, but almost out of the frame to the right.

Then I want to have that club face closing down so that ball really hooks back. If I do this correctly, I’m going to start this ball way over that pond, and I’m going to try to hook it back all the way into the left side of the fairway.

Now I may not get that extreme, but that’s the feeling that I’m trying to get. I’m closing in the backswing, creating this room in here to swing to the right, and I’m really letting that thing swing.

Let’s go ahead and give it a try. Oh, awesome. So that ball was a huge hook. Started kind of out on the right side of the fairway, and it hooked all the way over to the left side of the fairway.

So you’ll see from my flight scope numbers there, the path or the direction I was swinging is way to the right and my face is closing down to the left of that. That’s how you get that big hook.

I want you to go ahead and repeat that five more times. So again, if I’m noting swinging far enough to the right, my goal is to get those shoulders lined up more behind my body, clear the hips out of the way, and then I can really have that path to the right.

I want to feel like, and this isn’t actually happening, but I want to feel like my club almost grazes my leg as I’m swinging through here coming so far inside out.

Let me go ahead and try this one again. I’m going to try to start it even more to the right and hook it even more on this one if I can. Let’s give it a whirl.

There we go, so I start that one kind of in the right edge of the fairway, and it probably hooked a good, I don’t know, maybe 50 yards, something like that.

If we look at the FlightScope again, we’re going to see the same thing. Pathway to the right, and the face really closed, that’s what creates the big hook. Don’t be afraid of that.

I want to see big hooks from you at first. I want the more the better. If you can hook it 60 yards, hook it 60, that’d be fantastic at this point, because the next step we’re going to straighten this out into a draw.

So here’s the cool thing, now that we’ve got these extremes and we’re really trying to swing out there, I bet you can make what feels like a normal swing and because you’ve made these such extreme exaggerations, your normal swing is going to be pretty straight now.

I bet if you go ahead and you just take a normal swing, whatever you feel like, don’t worry about any instruction, you’re probably going to be geared a little bit more toward a draw.

Let’s go ahead and give that a whirl. Yeah, and you can see there, I just hit a nice draw right down the middle of the fairway, couldn’t have hit one much better than that.

Now the cool thing about this, is that you now have control of it. We haven’t thrown a band-aid on this, we’ve actually learned how to control the face.

We’ve done some drills where it’s really closed, we’ve done some drills where it’s really open. You’re starting to develop a feel of what your hands and arms feel like to create an open and closed face.

We also learned what it means to swing more from the inside out, how we have to create this pocket back here by angling our body so now we have room to swing inside out, and if we want to go the other way, we even know what we have to do to come over the top.

We create this pocket in the other direction. Shoulders get ahead, hips get back, and now I can swing to the left. So you have control over how to make a path to the right and the left.

Now when you have control of those two things, you can do whatever you want to do. If the ball starts to hook a little bit too much, you go a little bit more toward your fade swing and straighten it out.

If the ball starts to slice a little bit too much, you go a little bit more toward your hook swing, and start to straighten it out. So now you have the real tools to be able to solve any problem that you want to.

Now here’s the cool thing. Now that we’ve gotten a taste of hitting that draw, we’re ready to add some power to it. This is where the Top Speed Golf System comes in.

What I want you to do is go over the Power Turn section, and really work on one of the biggest keys to hitting it farther, which is loading up those hips and loading up those shoulders so that really now we can wind up.

See before when you tried to swing hard, or when you tried to load up your body, it only made that slice into an even bigger slice.

The ball actually went a little bit shorter. But now if we’ve got that draw, or even that nice straight shot, the harder we swing the farther that ball’s going to go.

So as you work through those Power Turn drills, that’s going to help you to increase your speed more and more.

Now don’t worry, if you’re not very flexible, I have some tricks that go in there that show you how to load your hips and your shoulders, even if you have no flexibility at all.

So as long as you work through that Power Turn section, you’re going to get more and more speed. So combine that with what we worked on today.

Today we got that ball to straighten out. That allowed us to add the power to the swing and not make the shots even worse.

If you really want to have that long-term lasting effect, go into the Top Speed Golf System, work through the Power Turn, it’s going to help you to hit it farther and farther every single week.

Best of luck, and I’ll see you in the Power Turn.
