A slice is when the ball travels from one direction to the other [depending on the left or right-handedness of the golfer], generally not in the direction you want it to go. This contrariness of the ball not to go straight toward the hole is the bane of the golfing world. Correcting a golf slice is not difficult, but may require plenty of practice, patience and more practice. There are three ways to correct a slice. Hire a golf instructor, purchase some DIY books and/or grab a golfing buddy to follow you around the fairways and tell you what you're doing wrong. In the meantime, practice these simple guidelines in the backyard or out on the course. 1.
