How to fix your slice - day 212 of 24 handicap to scratch golfer in 365 days #golf

Golf creator 'That's One!' demonstrates how to use alignment sticks to eliminate a slice during his journey from a 24 handicap to scratch. The drill focuses on correcting an over-the-top swing path by creating a narrow gate that the clubhead must pass through. This physical constraint encourages an on-line delivery for straighter shots.

• Slices are primarily caused by an out-to-in, over-the-top swing path.
• Use two alignment sticks placed on either side of the ball to visualize and enforce a straight club path.
• Start with the alignment sticks wide and gradually move them closer together as your swing path improves.
• Physical barriers provide instant feedback, forcing the body to adjust the downswing naturally.
