downloaded an app on my android and lined up my adress shaft angle at 44degrees and then frame by frame untill my down swing was at the impact position and it was at 49degrees
hand where a little higher and my head raised a bit during my swing
is the angle of the club from address through the swing the reason for my nasty god awful slice?

Read. It will tell you why you slice.

You've changed the lie angle of your club, your club face can be square to your target but because your shaft is more upright your effectively pointing the sweet spot to the right of the target, this will be one of the reasons your ball will go to the right

Key there being "one of the reasons." It might add a bit of slice, but it won't make it, as you say, "nasty god awful."

    • A hair under 190. It was pretty downhill, though, so I think we were playing between 180-185 to the pin. My 6 iron went 187 according to shot scope and ended up 18 feet away.
    • That's a tough pin on 14 at TR, had to make the hole play much longer, how far was that shot? I've only played that hole with a front pin.
    • No, but I spent (marginally) less time in the trees at Southern Pines, so it definitely played wider for me 😆. It definitely felt wider.
    • Have you measured? 🙂
    • I'm bad about taking pictures, but here are a few Hole 1 on Duke, looking toward the green. The elevated green with bunkers surrounding it was a theme. The other theme was pin placements that were tough - this one is pretty far left. There were basically no easy pins on this day.     Hole 3 at Pine Needles. An extremely cool hole. Hole 5 at Pine Needles. The picture doesn't do the green site justice. Green of 6 at Southern Pines. A wild green, and a really cool setting at the edge of the property: Hole  Tee shot on 5 at Tobacco Road. Flag is on the flag, the huge fairway is to the right. Hole 8 at Tobacco Road. Downhill, medium length par 3 with this pin in the front part of the green. Really cool looking shot. A look at the pin placement and cottage on Tobacco Road 14. I hit one of my best shots of the trip here, to about 15 feet.
