sounds to me that your hands are getting ahead of the club head to far which at contact the driver face is still open creating a slice. usually this happens due to trying to hit the driver to hard,try some half swings at the range at a slower speed to understand where your driver comes into contact with the ball in relation to your hands. |

Daniel, i had the same problem with the driver (and still do occasionally if i dont check everything !), check your stance first, then check hand positions, try doing everything in slow motion with regards to the approach on the ball, again as mentioned above try half swings and not going for the leathering shot (heaven knows we all want to crack it one like the pro's), always worth draging alone a cam corder or setting up your phone to check your swing. |

Dan, I don't wan't to sound too harsh but it won't be your driver. They aren't, generally, designed to go right! As JP said, invest in a lesson! Richard |

Probably not the driver but could be if the shaft is too stiff for your swing speed. If its stiff shafted you may need regular. |
