How to Work on a Golf Slice

A slice is a common shot pattern where the ball curves sharply away from a right-handed player’s target. The useful first step is understanding your own swing pattern rather than chasing a quick fix.

Start with setup

Check grip, alignment, and ball position. A consistent starting position makes practice feedback much clearer.

Work with a qualified coach

Ask a PGA professional to look at your swing. A lesson can separate clubface issues from swing-path issues and give you one focused change to practise.

Practise with a purpose

Use short, repeatable sessions and one target. Track the starting line and curve of the ball, not just whether a shot felt good.
