Most golfers, men and women alike, tend to hit a slice. The most common cause of a slice is a lack of clubface rotation through the ball at impact. This opening or holding back of the clubface puts a clockwise rotation on the ball and causes the sometimes-dramatic curve to the right. To correct your slice you first must learn to hit the anti-slice (a.k.a. a hook). Feel the toe of the club pass the heel through impact and the ball will move from right to left. An excellent drill to feel this release of the clubhead and your arms is to set up as if the ball were teed up three feet off the ground. Make a few swooshing swings and begin to sense how your right arm crosses over the left naturally.
Gradually lower the bottom of the swing until you are making swings at ground height. If you can get this rotational swing to happen through the ball, Kiss Your Slice Goodbye!
