I'd like to get some ideas on what is going wrong with my swing. I have seeing a right to left (fade) trajectory and this is what's happening with my driver lately. All my other clubs have my natural baby draw but for some reason, I'm struggling with a fade/slice with the driver. Here's a link to my swing: What is the cause of the problem? Thanks for the help.

I have trouble with this too, I cast my hands out from the top cutting across the ball, maybe because i'm trying to hit it harder.

It would be nice if you would cut out the extremely long times between each swing, it would certainly make more people want to help you, most people will probably shut it off by the time you take your first swing. Maybe a slow motion version too so I don't have to download it and slow it down myself.

And just to help you not get this deleted, I believe this type of post is supposed to go in a thread called My Swing (yourname), but i could be wrong.

Thanks for the suggestions jshots. I'm going to do what you suggested and edit the first post if I'm still in time.

so basically what's happening is you're losing your inclination(spine angle), straightening up and it's making you push slice the ball out left. keep your back foot down and don't let your chest rise up and bring you out of the shot.

Thanks for the suggestion. I had noticed that when looking at the video, but didn't know if that was a cause of the slice or a result of something else. I'll work on that tomorrow morning before my round and hopefully I'll finally be able to hit my driver well.

yeah... your body is getting in the way of where your arms are supposed to go. since they cannot occupy the same space, the arms go out and left. so you're left with two choices, push slice it or flip hook it.

    • I had a few tweeks in the bag. I took out my Mizuno pro FliHi 3 iron replaced it with a Titleist GT2 7 Wood. what a change that is, so easy to hit, it goes so high without it ballooning on me. I couldn't get rid of my callaway woods ( Rogue ST Max LS ) but changed the shafts to Diamana BB 63 stiff for the driver and 73 stiff for the 3 wood. Than i got myself a new putter Odyssey S2S jailbird yes i joined the centershaft family
    • First off all i think you should use the same ball all the time. We all strive for consistency on the course, the only factor you can be sure it will be always the same is your ball if you always use the same. So i think we should always use the same. I recently switched from Titleist Pro V1x to Srixon Z-Star Diamond because it i get a bit softer feel around the greens and same results on driver and irons
