tightly. Remember the basics and only hold the club tight enough to keep control. You should not have any tension on your wrist and forearms.

         You may want to try increasing your swing speed by pulling the club farther back before swinging to fix your golf slice.  When you increase your swing speed you can gain yardage and will hit the fairways more often. 

        Make sure not to bend over too far or round house your swing similar to a baseball swing. Bring your club back straight and follow through on the swing.

         Point the label on the ball in the direction you want it to go when teeing it up. This way you can concentrate on the ball without looking up.

 

         Then, when you tee up your ball, follow this checklist faithfully:

• Stand Straighter
• Bend Knees Slightly
• Keep Feet Shoulder Width
• Line Up Ball with Front Foot
• Tip the Club Face in Just a Bit
• Loosen Your Grip
• Keep Your Eye on the Ball
• Clear Your Mind
• Now Hit the Fairway
   

Draw/Fade

 

The less extreme version of a Hook is called a "Draw", and the less extreme version of a slice is called a "Fade". Many golfers find that they are only having a draw or fade with their longer clubs, and they are very accurate with their shorter clubs.

 

Both the draw and the fade are both products of a stronger swing and can be normal. Many golfers use the fade and the draw to their advantage. Slight modifications to your swing will correct both problems, but be careful; tampering with perfection could lead to disaster.
