A good
example of this would be to rotate your hips beyond the desired 45
degrees to enable your body to make a full backswing. What this does
is rob you of power. You have no torque built up in your core to
unleash into the ball at impact.The same thing with a golf slice.
A golf slice is caused by the upper body getting ahead of the lower
body, creating an “over-the-top" move, which in turn results in your
clubface slashing across the ball and creating side-spin. Here comes
the banana ball!
Your first inclination will be to take a lesson to fix this. If
that doesn’t work, you might buy a training aid. If that doesn’t work
you’ll buy an “offset" driver to help eliminate your golf slice.
Does this sound familiar?
Now the real answer! Take a break on your lessons. Don’t buy
anymore training aids. And keep your normal driver in your bag.
You need to work on you core rotational flexibility to be able to
initiate the downswing with your lower body first, to avoid the upper
body getting ahead of it. It’s that simple. The minute your able to
separate the upper and lower body upon initial move down…you’ll see
that golf slice improve dramatically.
Doesn’t that make sense?
Along with fixing your golf slice, you’ll add up to 30 yards to
your drives. You will get more roll when the ball lands from a draw
ball flight. A golf slice is a weak shot that does not penetrate the
air for maximum distance.
All of my programs, dvds, and books focus on core rotational
strength and flexibility which will improve your power output and
eliminate swing faults. You will not experience compensations on the
golf course anymore.
When you work on your “machine", your golf swing takes care of
itself! You will finally eliminate the thought, “fix golf slice".
