how bad a slice

Posted by: user270701 | Tue 5th Jan 2010 22:07 | Last Reply

Hi there just got my new set of clubs at xmas.

Not played in 15 year. 29 year old now.

Went to world of golf driving range in clydebank and oh my god, what a hell of a slice.

Any tips of what i should do and what to try before i get stuck in a rut and cant get out of it.

Lewis said: After a while putting these basics into practice, I am now in the middle of another course of lessons to JUST sort out my slice and swing

Lewis. I can do all of that in ten minutes, stop throwing away your hard earned.

If you are happy with your progress, Lewis then fine, but let me just mention that, IF you are going to improve, then improvement should be rapid under the correct instruction.

If you are still off your current  handicap come the summer then you have been instructed incorrectly.

Exactly DM because at the moment he's supporting the south ,    actually Lewis we could do with being straightened out as there are 9 dogleg right holes at Abbey

You will be fine trust me, anyway you cant do any worse than last years captain and his partner who got slaughtered

 Andrew, that lengh of time lay off could mean that your swing was not what it used to be. Unless your new clubs have extremely whippy shafts and you're trying to leather it, it would seem that you need some pro advice.
