There are hundreds if not thousands of tips out there, especially on the internet, that are falsely promising to help you fix your slice, add distance to your swings, and add accuracy to your shots, lowering your scores in the process. Sometimes it is difficult to tell which of these tips are worth following and which tips are simply wastes of your time. Slicing is not fun, and it is especially not enjoyable to deal with the embarrassment of having a golf game that is not "on par" with those you're playing with. Obviously slicing is a big source of embarrassment if you are dealing with it often, but how will you know which tips are going to help you fix your slice and which are going to make matters worse in the long run?
One of the best golf swing tips that can work wonders on helping you fix your slice has to do with taking two basic steps based around a single principle. The one simple principle that you need to keep in your mind when you are golfing is to swing soft, swing smooth and swing all the way through the ball. In other words, you should absolutely not be trying to add swing speed simply by trying to put as much power into your swing as you possibly can. One of the worst things that you could ever do in trying to perfect your swing is to try to swing as hard as you can, because swinging as hard as you possibly can is not what is going to put power behind the ball. So how do you prevent slices or gain better control of your slice in general? Keep reading.
1 - Begin by only lightly gripping the club.
One way that you can ensure that your grip is right is by holding the club out so that it is perpendicular from your body using your arms, then pointing to the sky, and only gripping enough that you prevent the club from falling out of your hands, and not any harder than that. This is going to give your arms significantly less control over your swing, allowing the club to do the work instead, which can work wonders when it comes to curing your problem with slicing.
2 - Follow all the way through.
You need to make sure that you are holding your balanced through all the way until the ball manages to hit the ground. If you do this, in no time at all you will begin to notice a serious difference in your game.
These two basic golf tips may seem simple, and they may even seem insignificant in the grand scheme of things, but they can work wonders when it comes to fixing your slice, as well as fighting higher scores and problems relating to inconsistency. Basic tips are usually the most advantageous, as they can be implemented one by one until your game improves.
