I can't hit worth a crap with my woods. I get better the higher i go. I'm worst with a 1 off the tee. I get a little bit better with a 3 wood. I'm better with a 3 wood off of the ground, not on tee. But there are times when I do like to hit a 3 wood off of a tee. And my 5 wood is best. With my 1, i hit the ball very far, but never accurate. I slice like crazy. With my three, I usually slice also. And with my 5, i don't have the slice effect. It's usually a straight shot. I get free driving range balls with my membership, so does anybody have any driving range drills that i can do to improve my fairway game with my woods?

ttt....somebody help me.

You slice the ball. No offense intended here, but you're asking probably the most common question in all of golf. Do a search on this forum and you'll get answers.

Sounds like you are new to golf. Great. Wonderful game, but takes time to learn. Best thing you (or anyone) can do is take some lessons. Without changing things, you will be slicing the ball a year from now. Repeating the same thing, over and over, and expecting a different result is the definition of insanity. Get a local PGA pro to give you some lessons. Day one, your slice will be addressed. You need to be sure you are gripping the club properly. Too weak a grip all by itself could cause a slice. Read up on the grip and how a weak or strong grip affects your shots. Take some lessons. It will be the best money you ever spend. After your lesson, take advantage of the free range balls. But doing it the way I suggest, you will be hitting shots the correct way and learning the game. If you just go out and bash ball after ball, you are actually hurting your chance of playing golf well as you are training your body to do the wrong things over and over again.
