Start Your Swing With Your Lower Body to Stop that Slice

LPGA and PGA Master Professional Alison Curdt tees off on a dogleg par five with a great tip to take the slice out of your drives.

Often the slice move starts with the upper body first because you are trying to hit your driver really hard. When the body starts first the golf club gets out in front and moves towards the left (for right handers) creating the side spin of a wicked slice.

Instead, go the top of your backswing count to two and begin the downswing with your lower body and as you do you’ll notice that the golf club stays more behind you not out in front.

Starting with the lower body puts your golf club on the right plane which will help you hit the fairway.

The advantage over other lesson websites are the member groups: the lesson one for a quick lesson or two and the fun of feeling connected to female golfers around the world through the social group.

I’m really enjoying this membership. The lessons are helpful and the camaraderie is unique and special.

I joined a couple of weeks ago. I really like that the lessons are short and only address one thing. So often you are tied in knots after getting too many instructions. Glad I joined.

A year later...and I still love all I’m learning from this group!

I am really impressed with Women's Golf and couldn't be more pleased with my membership and all of the great resources I can access.

Thank you for such a wonderful resource! I just joined and am so thankful for you and the other women golfers in this community.

I just wanted to pop on and tell you how grateful I am that you have a lesson on the scorecard and handicap! I am really enjoying your website and the facebook social group.
