If you have been slicing the golf ball, this tip is for you. Here's how to cure a golf slice.
The way I grip the golf club enables the club face to return square when it comes back down to the golf ball.
I don't have any challenges with slicing the golf ball. But if you've been slicing the golf ball and when you look down at your left hand and you don't see any knuckles, your club face is probably wide open at impact.
So, the next time you go tee up, give this a shot. Turn your left hand over towards your right hand. Make sure you can see one or two knuckles and make sure both palms are facing each other. This is a great way you can cure a golf slice.
With that, I guarantee you that the club face will now start to square up at the bottom.
Now I'm going to tell you the most common fault with a driver. It's slicing it, that's a given.
But let me tell you the reason why I believe that so many people slice it. If you turn when you go back and you swing your arms up, in the downswing the arms have to come first.
So many amateurs open the shoulder up in the downswing. And that makes the golf club cut across it.
From the top the arms swing first, and your shoulder never opens.
So, let me teach you something that I think will help fix a golf slice.
I cannot tell you how many golf balls I have hit with my feet and knees touching each other and making normal, real golf swings. Everything else stays the same.
It is a wonderful way for you to start feeling that the arms swing away from the body. And they aren't connected to it when you turn into it with the left shoulder.
The arms are free to swing past you and you don't have to worry about the body.
You can play golf that way. I shot 71 on a really good golf course ten years ago with my feet and knees touching each other the whole way around.
You will hit about 80% of your regular length this way but have 100% better contact with the golf ball and fix your golf slice.
Give that a try the next time out.
Thanks.

You will find all types of golf simulators in the market. They come in various shapes and sizes. You would have noticed that some golf simulators are very cheap and are available for less than 10000$ while some cost more that 50000$. Have you ever tried to figure out why is there such a huge difference in the price when all of these simulators are meant for the same purpose of playing simulated golf. I will make things easy for you guys by pointing out the main differences.
Many enthusiastic golfers like to be out on the golf course everyday to either have fun or to keep their golf game in shape. But due to work or sometimes weather it becomes impossible to visit the golf course everyday. But this doesn't mean your game needs to suffer, there are many alternatives which can help you keep your game in shape
Every golfer knows that having the right irons in the bag is a vital part of improving their game and, as a consequence, those all-important scores. Whether it's getting that extra yardage and accuracy from the long irons on a meaty par five or having the feel needed to chip to within a couple of inches from the cup, better clubs can often mean higher levels of performance. It proved to be a bright day for Australian golf as Bryden Macpherson ended his country's 57-year winless drought in the British Amateur Championship.
So finally you have decided to get a golf simulator for your home. While most of the golf simulator companies would install it in your house for a very little extra charge, still if you are planning to install it yourself to save some extra bucks, you are at the right place. I will explain some common setup used to install your golf simulator. As you know not all simulators are same, so there might be a little changes in this setup which you can figure out yourself by going through the product manual.
The G20 driver has a heavier head than G15 for greater force at impact. Additional backweighting and a more elongated face shore up misses.
I've heard some pretty good players say that they thought the Ping K15 Driver was going to be too unforgiving for them to play. While the K15 Driver is not going to be confused with game improvement models (like the G15), players looking to be able to work the ball off the tee and who regularly find the fairway now should still be able to find it with the i15, as well.
Golf simulators have been in the market since decades. With the advancement of technology, there have been continuous improvements to the golf simulator to give more accurate and realistic game play. There is a continuous debate about golf simulators whether they improve your game or not. According to my personal experience the gap between playing on golf simulator and real course is decreasing day by day and I won't be surprised if huge golf tournaments start to happen on golf simulators instead of real courses.
