If you are a golfer that has a natural slice or even just slice the odd time, you will know just how frustrating it can be, in fact, it can be the part of your game that has the biggest negative affect on your overall performance, a bad golf slice really can ruin your game.

In this article I am going to be writing about how to correct a slice in a golf swing and give you some tips for correcting a golf slice, I hope you find the information useful and helpful to the development of your game and good luck.

The first tip I would give you is to make sure that you have the proper stance when swinging, this may seem like a very obvious point, however, it is actually quite a common problem and not just for people who are completely new to the game, if you’re slicing quite often then make sure that your stance is correct and if not, work on it. Again, this may seem obvious and pretty insignificant but just think about it, you may be surprised at what a few changes can do for your swing.

The second tip for you is to simply study the experts and follow their advice, there’s a simple reason why certain golfers are so successful, it’s because they know what they’re doing, yeah it’s another obvious point but so many golfers don’t regularly learn from other golfers, they try to improve their game on their own and it often is a much slower process this way, read, learn and study other golfers to improve your own game and especially your swing, if you’re slicing.

The third tip is how you grip the club, this can be very important when it comes to getting the best swing possible and avoiding a slice, this is another very simple thing that you can work on and practise improving, you should eventually end up with a grip that is best suited for you and that usually gives you an excellent swing, just work on it and make minor changes every so often to test and tweak.

The last tip I would give you is to constantly learn and improve your swing, this is , in my opinion, one of the most important points, if you are constantly improving your game then you should find yourself progressing at a very fast level and your scores will just get better and better, things like slicing will become a thing of the past, just never stop learning and improving.

These are just some tips that I thought might be helpful to you if you are having problems with your golf swing, as mentioned above, a slice can be extremely frustrating, especially if it happens often, so hopefully these tips will help you to overcome that problem and get to the top for your game.

Most high handicap golfers dread going into the bunker. However, getting out from a bunker is basically a very easy shot.only if you know how.

Always remember that you are not supposed to hit the golf ball clean. Do not make contact with the golf ball itself with the club.

The sand is actually going to act as a cushion between the club head and the ball when you hit the shot out.

Most people when going in a bunker they try to pick the ball off the top of the sand with a chip shot action as though theyre on the grass. Now the problem with that is that the grass is very firm so youre not going to dig in with the club. This means you can quite easily hit the golf ball first and get a decent strike out of it.

In the case of a bunker shot, most people tend to just duff it in front of themselves because the sand is fluffy and it breaks up. In order to hit a good bunker shot, what youve got to remember is that youre actually going to take out the same amount from underneath the ball.

For good bunker shot, when you swing the golf club, the swing needs to be a lot longer and have a better tempo than with a chip shot, because youve got to allow for the sand which youre going to take out with your shot. You must allow for that sand to actually take the power out of the shot.

If the ball is sitting up on the surface, your sand wedge takes less sand with it during your swing. If it’s buried you’d have to dig deeper, and the club will barely make contact with the ball. The following steps would help you to consistently hit good bunker shot:

1) As you are aware, the sand wedge has a wide sole. This is called the bounce. It will make is easier for you to lift the ball out of the sand and get it up quickly.

2) Place your feet squarely in the sand and make sure you have solid footing and balance. You have to take a firm swing to overcome the resistance of the sand.

3) Use an imaginary line just ahead of your ball. Open the club face and aim at a point about 3 inches behind the ball if it is sitting on top of the sand. The sand wedge would slide through the sand just under the ball and would loft the ball over onto the green.

4) If the ball is partially buried in the sand, focus at a point just behind the ball taking more sand with the swing

5) With all bunker shots, allow your follow through of the club head higher than the front of the bunker.
