Q&A

What causes a slice in golf?

A slice typically occurs when the club path is outside-in and the clubface is open at impact, causing the ball to curve to the right for right-handed golfers.

How can I fix my slice?

To fix a slice, work on improving the club path to be more inside-out and closing the clubface at impact. Addressing the setup and body rotation can help achieve these changes.

Can adjusting the setup really make a difference?

Yes, the setup plays a crucial role in the golf swing. Proper alignment, ball position, and body posture can help you achieve a more efficient swing and hit the ball more consistently.

Should I focus more on the arms or body in the golf swing?

While the arms play a role in the swing, it's important to focus on the rotation of the hips and torso. Getting the body involved in the swing can lead to better control and power.

Will fixing my slice also increase my distance?

Yes, fixing a slice can certainly increase your distance. When you fix your swing path and clubface angle, you can strike the ball more efficiently, resulting in longer shots.
