Correct & fix your golf slices without starting to hook!

Some useful golf slice tips to correct & fix your golf hooks & slices:

1. Technically speaking, the slice is caused by golf club face angle at impact. In order to cure a slice or a hook, you will need to square the club face at point of impact.
   


2. Slices are also caused by an "over the top" golf swing; that is, a swing that approaches the ball on outside-to-inside swing path.
   
   
3. There is no miracle instant-cure to help you correct your golf slice. Instead it is recommended that you head to the driving range to hit a few buckets while practicing a few basic tips.
   
   
4. Remember to keep your alignment closed. Check frequently where you are aiming and where you actually hit the ball. A divot can tell you a lot
   


5. To fix or correct your golf slice, try putting the ball back in your stance.
   
   
6. To cure a golf slice, take a strong grip (your leading hand - the top hand on the club - should be turned a little more to the inside). This should hopefully keep the club face closed on impact.
   
   
7. The swing that should help you avoid slicing is the golf swing that swings from the inside-out.
   
   
8. Remember though that if you try too hard to cure your golf slice by having too strong a leading hand, you could end up with a hook. Neither a hook or a slice are desirable in the game of golf so practice makes perfect.
