I completely fixed my slice after watching this ▶ this video which got my standing a bit further away from the ball and ▶ this video. Before this I was driving multiple balls OB every round and now I’m pretty consistent. I was surprised by how much it changed my game. Looks like you have a solid swing but, logically, if you’re standing too close to the ball you have to come down steep which causes a slice Give it a …

Driver is all about loading that back foot and keeping it on the ground so you can push off after you let your hip turn get super deep. A comically wide stance with right/back toe flared helps a ton. This Rory video was enlightening to me and helped everything click. ▶ this video

Yeah you can use pretty much anything - just make sure it won’t scratch your driver because you’ll definitely be hitting it a lot at first! And I forgot to mention something - don’t keep your weight back in order to get club over the object (head over or shirt). You still want your weight moving toward the target, but do it from the ground up, meaning shift weight with lower body and keep your head back behind the …

If not, consistency could come just from better ball striking and practice. Check out ▶ this video of Rory helping the Barstool guys with their drives.
