Like the rest of the golfing population, I fight the slice with my driver at some point during the season. Usually, this happens when I'm hitting my irons great . Swing out to the right more? I still slice. Keep your back turned longer? Sometimes it works, usually it doesn't. Strong grip? Somehow that makes it worse. Crush the can? Crush a slice (crush the can is excellent for my irons though).

Earlier this week, I stumbled across a solution at the range. I simply feel like I'm pointing the toe of the club towards the target at impact. Somehow this gets me into the right position and fixes my swing path, I'm guessing. I played 9 yesterday and couldn't believe how straight it was flying with my driver.

I'm not going to speculate why this is working for me, but it is. I know club face manipulation is generally not advised, but I can't argue with the results.

I want to emphasize that his is only for my driver.

I go from hitting lasers dead straight to hitting a massive slice it's very annoying to say the least. I think my problem is I'm not shifting my weight to my left side all the time and maybe this is giving me a reverse pivot.

The driver is my Achilles heal.  Sometimes it works and sometimes not so much.  I will get a weak fade now and then .  My go to thought is to flatten out the swing a bit gets me coming more from the inside.

I runs is parallel with a saying, Women we will never know.
