Slice?

[airbarrett]

hey guys i need help straightening myself out... i constantly hit the ball like 220 (yes only 220) but it'll go 10-15 yards right... anyone have tips on figuring out my slice?

Re: Slice?

only 200? LOL...but thats odd...i seem to remember out of the box driving 250-270, but i could be wrong.....as for the slice, try slowing down your swing until you can hit straight comfortably...i know thats not the greatest advice, but its hard to tell what you may be doing to cause it without actually seeing it

Re: Slice?

i agree, try slowing down your swing, and messing around by doing extreme bad swings, so you can see which way you're pulling back or pushing the analog stick towards...once you learn that (by color, I forget exactly how they work out, but I figured out I was favoring one side in my backswing and then fixed it). Whenever I get frustrated I start swinging harder and faster, and make more mistakes...a smooth stroke is key too.

Yes TEMPO is very key.

Take it back 1/2 as fast as you push it forward.

Or BETTER yet....push it forward no more than twice as fast as you take it back, making sure your takeaway is smooth and easy....just like real golf.

Slow back, fast forward. That's the simplest advice I can offer when swinging with woods or long irons.

Take care,

Man, last night I was slicing like a madman. I think I was hurrying too much and kept hitting it in the rough. My putting was also killing me. Some of the greens in this game are brutal. I am in the middle of my first under par round though. I'm at -2 after 9 holes on the Hawaiian course.
