In this CardioGolf® Online Studio lesson, we break down the Anatomy of a Slice so you can understand exactly why the ball curves to the right (for a right-handed golfer). You’ll learn how the relationship between the clubface angle and the swing path causes that frustrating side-spin—and why even a small difference between the two can send your ball off target.
Through simple explanations, slow-motion demonstrations, and easy-to-follow drills, we’ll show you:
How an open clubface and outside-in path create a slice
How your grip, setup, and swing plane influence the ball's curve
Common swing mistakes that lead to slicing—and how to fix them
Drills to square the clubface and improve your swing path for straighter shots
🎯 Even if you don’t slice often, it’s important to understand why it happens—because the more you know about your swing tendencies, the easier it is to self-correct when you need to.
Join us and learn how to take control of your ball flight with CardioGolf®!
