I have a wicked slice with my 905R - never had with previous TM R7. No problem with the irons.

I think this is due to the square club face on the 905 where the R7 was slightly closed?
Anyway, prob had the same swing but the R7 masked the flaw.

I can occasionally cure the problem (when I remember) by dropping my right foot back a bit (so aiming right more). Shoulders still in line with target, so I must aim up with some sort of draw on the ball. More often than not though, I just aim square and slice OB. Muppet.

Going to the range this week so will try some of the ideas mentioned above...

Fusion #3
Big Bertha Warbird #5

Most slices are caused by people learning to swing with a STRONG grip. They must then BLOCK it and not release properly.

I have cured more slices by teaching a neutral grip and releasing to a proper finish than any other lesson I give.

Equipment, Setup, Finish, Balance, and Relax. All equal in importance and all dependent on each other. They are the cornerstones of a good golf swing.

Not just body rotation. IF you are using POWER and your right hand too much. That's what causing slices.

Focused on this on range today and hit several great shots. Thanks. Can't wait to take it to the course!

    • Day 32 (9 Apr 26) - Grandson is on spring break- puts in to play 9 at our home course.  Used it to work on top of horizon target point for drives and approaches…i.e. pick landing zone (fairway, green) , an intermediate target point and finally what standout feature do I want to hit “over” on the horizon (tall pine, home top, flag pole).    Better l-r dispersion w/5 of 7 drives in the short grass.  Nice little addition to the pre-shot routine. 
    • I managed to get the full afternoon to watch (Pacific time, so the ESPN broadcast began at noon).  I just saw the first shot I feel like commenting on:  Adam Scott's tee shot on #16 was really good, especially after having what might be the worst kind of Maltese Falcon on #15.    I didn't used to like him, but the past few years he's grown on me quite a bit.
    • I am terrible at the hip stuff so have no idea how to get it right but you look like you are trying to stall hip slide altogether.
    • I think you are right about the margin of error. I was watching the Yankees Vs Athletics the other night. They overturned multiple calls cause it was just outside the box, but then kept a few strikes that just touched the line of the box. the difference in the 2 pitches was maybe a 1/16 of an inch.
