I dealt with the worst baseball player banana slice since I started. Couldn’t figure out what was going right when it worked because it felt the same as it did on the days it didn’t. This video helped me a lot. ▶ this video Just a simple way to think about it, and the fixes for what happens when you’re hooking it/slicing it. Helped me break 90 for the first time! Good luck man.

If you're being serious, your hands are way too close to your body and you're completely pulling in on your swing. Your arms are pointed directly downward. People are saying get a lesson, and that's fine, but it barely looks like you've watched a video on how to swing. I'd maybe start there. This one was absolutely massive for my swing: ▶ this video I went to the range for a 110 bucket after watching this and by 20 …

So I can't seem to find it but someone recently posted this video that has, overnight, fixed my slice. Look, normally I am extremely wary of these 'Just do this one thing' videos. You gotta remember, these guys are trying to bring in views, ad revenue, engagement, etc. Not every fix applies to every person, each swing is unique. That fine print aside, this absolutely fixed my slice. For context, I am in my 40s, play …

Someone shared this video in the last week. I'd felt very confident that my club face was square/aligned at setup with my grip, but leaving the club face open during the swing. This video is about tying your club face to your body. The thing I like about it is that it's teaching you the feel and encourages you to try the extreme ends as you dial in towards something more neutral or want to play with shot shapes. ▶ …

u/No_Explanation5890 2025 · r/GolfSwing · in “Major slice. Should my right elbow stay closer to my torso or is it my takeaway? Club path is super outside to”
I see lack of wrist hinge first off. Also coming down too steeply in the down swing which in turn causes you to have a club path coming from the right and hitting acoss the ball causing the slice. Struggle with the same myself I'm working on worst hinge drills such as this: ▶ this video And then looking at Danny Maude videos on wrist hinge and focusing more on unhinging the right arm more naturally. ▶ this video ▶ …

I'm far from an expert but I can see a big issue in your setup. You are setup to slice the ball. Watch this video linked below, the way he says people who often slice are lined up is you 10000% ▶ this video
