ok,i did overreact about my slice problem that came out of nowhere. So i went back to the range today and i forgot what my pro told me i had a slight fade with my irons and drives so what he wants me to do if make it like the face of the club is looking at the golf ball so i start the backswing and turn the face to the left so its looking at the ball. it killed my slice but turning it into a hook most of the time and a massive super hook duck hook thing its nasty. What do u think about this?

It sounds like your banana slice is now a duck hook. Work in a few chilli dips and you've got the start of a well balanced diet. Seriously though, how did you ever get to 8.1? Are you and Paz playing the same course?

OP - no offence but at a h'cap of 8.1, you should be able to tell for yourself what is going wrong with your swing. are you completely not aware of how your swing is and whats causing the problems...?

well, post up a video of yourself and let's see it. we'll tell you whats wrong with your swing.

For crying out loud. Stop pretending that you are a single figure handicap golfer. Your posts indicate that you probably wouldn't break 100 on an easy course. Why on earth are you surprised that an overcorrection of a slice causes the duck hook? Of course it does. What did you think would happen?
You clearly have no idea at all about the golf swing and are looking for sympathy when all you need to do is get lessons and not expect instant fixes. You'll get worse before you get better.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

I'm pretty sure that attitude isn't going to help.

You need a new coach and a new attitude.

Do you want some cheese to go with your wine? I won't be as harsh as Shorty, but if you're a single digit guy, you can pick up a Golf Digest and figure out where the issue lies. Personally, I think the issue may lie between the ears.....which is where the majority of golf issues die a slow, painful death. Good luck though.

is there a wrong way to post? Perhaps i should work on my keyboard stroke mechanics? I know i have a tendacy to hang my pinkie a little under the line and loose leverage, causing me to miss the delete key at critical times.

Youre too quick on the way down. Shorten that stroke and work on the tempo.

try a 4h if your average posts are much shorter. I hear you can do 300 yards straight down the middle witha 4h.

Oh, David.

The aroma of this post was delicious as I could smell my ice tea as it propelled out my nostrils. Now Kevin, I think the only thing you did was over-correct you're fade problem. Try the swing where you were fading the ball, and meet somewhere in the middle. Now was it that hard to actually answer the man's question people? Jeez....
