I’m having trouble pushing / push fading all of my clubs. Everything wants to go 10-20 degrees to the right. I’m using alignment rods, so I think I’m aimed correctly.
Today however I was able to create a slight draw with my 6 iron using the Ball Flight Fixes / Slices (and Pulls) / Fixing Your Slice Downswing - Swing Under The Stick and Coral Drill.
I was not however able to fix my driver using the same drill. I still hit everything to the right. There has to be something different about the driver setup and/or swing that I need to address.
Has anyone else to experienced this and what did you do to fix it?
Thanks.
@galloway8625 - You nailed my best suggestion, which is to video your swing from both angles to look for clues. If you’re still stumped then feel free to post the videos in the Forum’s Video Analysis Room or submit a V1 for my review.
Remember - club face relative to target line at impact will determine the ball’s starting direction, and face relative to path determines direction and degree of curvature.
I used to suffer from a huge slice before I started learning Stack and Tilt from Tom. Here is a list of things that helped me to minimize slicing the ball. This is for driver setup.
- Weight forward - 60% lead foot 40% trail foot.
- Maintain your spine tilt at address by pointing your lead should at the ball at the top of the back swing.
-Head still during the downswing to maintain spine tilt.
-Hips to move laterally toward the target in the downswing to shallow the club and keep it from an outside to in swing path that causes a slice.
I hope this helps some. Take care and have fun out there.
