Hi all, I've been hitting a nice draw for about 2 years now but all of a sudden, the last 2 rounds, i've been slicing it all over the joint!

I haven't deliberately changed anything so have you any ideas what may be causing it?

In my Sun Mountain bag :

Driver : R7 Superquad
Irons : MX-900 3i - PW
Wedges : CG14 52 & 56Putter : 'Fang' #7Balls : TP Red


try gripping your right hand tighter, and/or do a bit of an in-out swing path. Another tip, keep a line from the club shaft to your arm Straight! one big long line!

Driver: Hippo Hex2, HL
980F 3, 5 wood
X-Forged Irons, 3-Pw
50 deg wedge
58 deg wedge Futura putter PTS carry golf balls Green-joys


Well, you have begun to hit it in a fashion that is producing slice side spin. There are a whole load of things that could cause that. Over the top, out to in path, open face, stuck, we could go on and on. Let's a see a video of your new swing.


if your swing feels the same as usual, and your using the same clubs, one subtle thing that can creep in is alignment changes -- i.e. you might be aligning your body slightly more open to the clubface, which could certainly lead to a slice without other major swing changes. Easy to put down some clubs on the ground and see, and/or get a buddy to tell you what your body is aligned to at address compared to where you think it's aligned.

Driver: Cleveland Classic 270, 10.5*
Fairway Woods: Adams Speedline LP (3 & 5)
Hybrids: Wilson Staff Fybrids 21*, 24*, UST V2 stiff
Irons: Callaway X-20 Tour, 5-PW, Rifle Project-X (flighted) 6.0
Wedges: Cleveland CG15 DSG 52* & 58* +/- 56* Niblick

Putter: Yes! Amy

    • A strong grip cups the wrist (lead) and then it wants to flatten through impact, something I used to be able to avoid to keep it from going left and protecting my forearm (the main premise of my set up). Longer the club, harder it is becoming. Either way, yes, I need to transition to gripping it open. 
    • Why don't you grip it "open" so you can return your hand to the place where you're comfortable/not sore, but the ball won't go left? It's effectively weaker… without actually "being" weaker?
    • Day 47 - 2024-11-16 Light backswing work with about 3 or 4 rehearsals for every ball hit. Only about ten minutes while waiting for a potential member to show up (he was 25 minutes late). 😛 
    • Idk but I would have to imagine that a putter that is aimed where you think it's aimed would be the most important aspect of a putter
