How to fix a golf slice is the thought on many, many amateur golfers' minds as they step up to the tee. Studies by interested parties have shown that over 80% of all amateur golfers slice the ball, and I'm certain that the majority of these players have searched high and low for a way to solve this problem.

Most people will seek advice from their local professional, buy training aids and so on, but do you know why you're constantly slicing the ball?

The way how to fix a golf slice is to understand what causes it to happen. A golf slice is caused by the clubface moving across the ball from outside the target line thus creating side spin on the ball.

Ok, you may think this is a mechanical problem, and to a certain extent it is, but upon investigation you'll find it a physical issue too.

Your golf swing is effectively dictated by your body's flexibility and movement. If you are not physically mobile then your swing will be limited to what your body allows. If you can not swing your shoulders through 90 degrees other parts of your body will compensate for this failure, though your hips will rotate beyond the desired 45 degrees to help you to make a full backswing. Unfortunately all this does is take away some of your stroke power.

The same thing is happening when you slice the ball. Your upper body is getting ahead of your lower body, thereby creating a movement which causes your clubface to slash the face of the ball, creating side spin – just what you do not want. Lookout here comes the out of bounds – again !!

This problem probably makes you take another lesson, maybe buy some more training aids. Maybe you'll even go so far as to buy a new driver. Possibly a bit extreme, but hey, you've got to fix a golf slice, have not you?

The real way to fix this problem is to start working on your core rotational flexibility. This will enable you to correctly enter your swing, that is with the lower body first so the upper body just can not get ahead. It really is that simple. As soon as you learn to separate the upper and lower body movement at your initial point of movement you golf slice will be fixed.

Is not that easy and as an added bonus your drive length will increase as will your roll on.

When you have worked on yourself your golf will take care of itself and, as you approach the tee you'll no longer have to worry about how to fix a golf slice. It will be fixed!

How’s your golf chip shot? You don’t need to be a golf theorist to know that the short game is the key (and often the downfall) of your golf score. This is especially true when it comes to putting, but also true when it comes to getting the ball on the green: chipping. Leaving a drive thirty feet shorter than your average on a drive can be made up for on the next shot. However, sending the ball skipping across the entire length of the green on a golf chip shot is definitely going to add an extra stroke to your score at the end of the day.

With chipping, unlike driving, the difficulty is in deciding how far you should hit it. Many amateur golfers just pull out the pitching wedge, aim for a few feet in front of the cup, and swing. You might as well be trying to make the ball land directly in the cup. When chipping, no more than half the distance the ball travels should be through the air. The rest should be on the ground, rolling. This is because the only part you can control is how far you hit the ball. The less distance you have to hit the ball, the fewer mistakes can be made.

“But how,” you ask “am I going to make the ball roll more than half the distance to the cup with my pitching wedge from 30 or 40 yards out?” The answer is that you probably can’t, but you can use different clubs. Just because you’re making a chip shot doesn’t mean you have to use your pitching wedge. You can use clubs as high as your 6-iron when you’re making a golf chip shot.

You should use your pitching wedge when you are very close to the green, either on the lip of the green or just a little bit back. In these cases, you should try to hit the ball halfway to the cup and let it roll the other half, taking into account factors like the incline of the green and whether it is playing fast or slow on the given day.

If you’re using your 6-iron, you should attempt to hit the ball one-quarter of the way to the cup and let it roll the other three quarters. Because you’re using a higher club, the ball will get less height and will travel on a trajectory closer to the ground. Therefore, it will roll further when it meets the ground. If you are using a club between the 6-iron and the pitching wedge, you should adjust accordingly. This is an important tip to execute the golf chip shot.

Remember, when it comes to chipping, the more roll you can get on the shot, the more control you have over the shot. Choosing the right club and then how far to hit the ball with that club is half the battle when it comes to your golf chip shot.
