Come on man, my Mustang on Ebay thread is still on top from yesterday....go back and look at that

The video is scary. I had no idea how bad my swing was till it was videoed, but the key is to have someone to critque the video, that knows his stuff. The best thing I ever did was get a few lessons from a teaching pro.

 

Whoa, that's a first.

 

I looked at it, just never cared for white Mustangs. I prefer black or silver.

(sorry BREW)

 

No, your problem is you DO play golf.

 

I've given that some thought too. I had the chance at one point, but didn't have the money.

Imagine that, huh.

 

It wasn't about the car.. Who cares what color the car is

Poor jamz, that boy needs a vacation.

 

Ok....so I am now forced to go look...thnx.

 

HAHA, no.

 

Blue is correct Jamz -

Slice is caused by an open club face and it can be caused by a number of things (often more than one at a time)

It could be grip, or a lot of times a person will turn their wrists back during their back swing and not break them back on the down swing. Also collapsing their right side on their down swing, or bringing their arms down too quickly and allowing their forearms to lag and not breaking wrists. All these cause the club to remain wide open on the down swing. Some pros will tell you that it can be caused swinging outside to in causing side spin and swing inside to out, or rather just seriously pushing the ball (this is a lot like collapsing the right side I mentioned earlier).

The majority is caused by improper grip and turning the wrists. Also, gripping the club too hard and trying to swing to hard are also going to wreak havoc with your swing.

If you find yourself starting to slice in the middle of a round this MIGHT help (hard to tell unless I were to observe your swing but i find this quick fix works for me).

Slow your swing down, have the ball be more toward the centre of your stance, consciously shift the weight on your back (right) foot (assumes you hit right handed). Doing these three will help correct collapsing of your right side and the slowing down part helps one from turning theirs wrists.

The best way though is to go back to the fundamentals and practice.

 

OK what was this thread about in the beginning?? You guys can't keep a thread straight to save your souls!!

PS - Jamz, I thought the joke was cute

 

Thanks Kobi. Good info.

Now that you mention it...yes...grip does sound like a possible symptom. I think I will just find me a golf pro, have him look at my swing a few times, and have him tell me what to work on and do that for awhile, then go se him again, etc...


Thanks again.
