Stop slicing with the correct swing path

One of the biggest reasons beginner golfers can't stop slicing, is because they keep swinging on an out-to-in swing path.

1. The above image is one of a typical slicer's action - the shoulders and arms throw the clubhead outside the correct line.
2. From this position, the clubhead chops across the line on an out-to-in path, which causes the ball to move left and slice wildly through the air.

Try the following steps out on the range, to nurture an in-to-out swing path for fixing your slice:
1. Take a wood or long-iron and assume your address position, by dragging your right foot back from your left.
2. If you were to put a club along the line formed by your feet, the shaft would point to the right of the target.
3. This address position will encourage a much better turn away from the ball - it will also prevent your upper body from throwing the clubhead outside the line from the top.
4. Make a full backswing and then let your arms swing down from inside the ball, to your target line - see picture above.
Practice these steps out on the range, and you will see your slice disappear - you may even develop a nice little draw!
I you are still struggling with a slice, after trying the great tips above, you may want to invest in The Dave Way Anti-Slice Swing System - he guarantees to destroy your slice!
