Please help

[Boeing777]

Ok, here it goes, max putts i took was 2 putts all day no 3 putts. From 100yrd in i'll hit the green or get close. But when i bring out the driver or 3 wood, i always tend to slide into the ball and slice the hell out of it all i could muster up was a 96. My long clubs are kicking my butt, please help.

My favorite drill to get that inside-out swing is to do half-swings with short irons.

it may take a coach to teach you the right positions, but the movement from hands at your waist level in the downswing, through impact can be repeated over and over and over. Hit a whole bucket doing a half swing. For reference on body position, here is an image: http://forums.iseekgolf.com/images/adamscott_swing.jpg Make your swing go from pane #7 to pane #8 with about an 8 iron. Don't feel like you need to have THAT much "lag" on the swing, but even if you have a smaller angle with the wrists, note his body positions and try to emulate them in those two panes.

Try this (preferably on the drivng range first)

Set up aiming right down the middle of the fairway.
Try to hit the ball out of bounds to the right (swing towards the out of bounds).

This will force that inside to outside swing.

If you've ever played baseball, it kind of feels like when you are trying to hit to right field.

Don't get frustrated. I was a big time slicer with the driver when I started. After a couple of years of frustration I went out to the driving range determined how to hit a draw. Surprisingly I found myself able to do it the first day or two of trying. I still have to watch myself as my natural swing just wants to go left to right but if I concentrate on the inside to outside mechanic, I no longer have an issue. In fact, I rarely hit the ball out of play with my driver these days.

Have you taken lessons? If not, I would recommend that you find a pro and take a series.

With that being said, here is what I do when my driver goes wild on me. I go to the range and warm up with some wedges and short irons. When I am loose and relaxed. I will hit the driver for a bit, starting with what feels like a half swing. Then I will step up to 3/4 for a few. If those aren't going straight, then I know I have a set up (grip, stance, etc.) issue and will review those. When I get that corrected, I will start going back a little further to full. Once they start going a little wild, I will back off and that is my swing that I try to repeat a few more times. Then I will hit some more wedge and iron shots and come back to the driver. Then wedges, then driver, and so on.

I think that's a horrible image to use. It's so far behind (left) of the target line that it's drastically skewed and doesn't "look right" at all.

That's true. I'm not even sure that hole pictured is where he's aiming.

I didn't have a ton of time and couldn't find a better one. If you have one, that would be awesome. To Boeing777, remember, he's aimed quite a bit left of that flag in the picture. on your downswing, the club head should be substantially inside the target line made by your feet.
