Compadres, While my iron game has been going well recently (minus some issues with ball striking consistency, sometimes fat, more frequent off the toe), but off the tee I am having a serious issue with the infamous slice. I have tried a lot and to no avail. Could y'all just take a look at my swing and gimme some tips on how to improve it/fix my driver slice. Thanks [video]http://youtu.be/zWD2Yn74drg[/video]

Welcome to the site. I've included some really good resources to help you.

For now I would focus on cleaning up the set-up and then film some more swings.

- Turn both feet out at address. This will help you pivot in a way to keep your head more steady.

- Check your grip, left hand looks weak and palmy. Weak and palmy grip encourages even more of a flip or casting motion, shifting the path across the ball.

- Also looks like your shoulders are aimed left of your feet, if the torso is aimed left that will pre-set your path left.

Head moves too far to the right on the backswing. When it moves this far back, it's difficult to get the weight forward enough on the downswing. This makes solid contact harder to achieve and more likely the golfer will send the path left.

Other than turning the feet out, the first part of keeping the head steady will be feeling the left shoulder move downward longer. If it doesn't move down, the head will float to the right.
