00:00:04 video number two this one's kind of important this is we're going to control really the face angle of how you've hit this club so if the balls keep starting too far to the right this is the video to start with we're gonna talk about how to grip the club and make this so much easier for you to stop slicing the ball let's go over there and take a look so one of the most common problems though was slicing is having your hands on the club and they're turned too much the

00:00:25 wrong way so let's talk about how to do this the absolute worst way you could if you slice you'd start with your left hand grip and you turn that to the left side of the shaft to the point where you've got this little dimple on your wrist right where your wrist and forearm come together if you push down on that just real gently you can see how far to the left of the shaft that is that is the beginning of hitting the worst slice ever so while there are a lot of

00:00:48 different things you can focus on with your left hand grip the position of where that dimple on your wrist is should be the number one priority so I know if you're watching and you slice the ball this is something you probably haven't thought of meanwhile with your right hand this would be the worst way to do it as well the index finger on your on your right hand right here in that very first joint the more that you start to place that on top of the shaft you can start to see how my shoulders

00:01:12 tilt more to the left but ultimately I'm just setting myself up to hit the ball with the face way to open to the target and with no chance of hitting and pushing a draw so the far better way is literally to take both of your hands and turn them as far to the right as you can the way that you can measure that is to find that dimple on your wrist turn that to the right side of the shaft so you can see how far over from the edge I've got that now don't worry about

00:01:38 necessarily how your fingers are wrapped up on the club just start with that then that same index finger on your right hand start to put that on the side of the shaft and if you want to make sure this ball draws which is what you're trying to do right now put that underneath the shaft as much as you can now you can see the difference in my shoulders and how they're tilting but also when I hold this club up how it's much easier to aim that towards the ground and actually hit the ball to the

00:02:00 left of the target you've got another problem in there though if you do start to grip the club with your left hand too far to the left and your right hand too far on top of the shaft and that's when you set up to the ball you can start looking at these swings and you'll see the first one where I've got some space between my right and my left arm my shoulders are relatively open or to the left of the target as I do that I am setting myself up to swing across the

00:02:24 ball and you'll certainly see that in this swing

00:02:30 so the more that you begin to turn your hands to the right you can start to see the relationship change and when I move my left hand to the right as far as I can my right index finger underneath the shaft now you've got the exact opposite relationship with your with your forearms and then that one on the backswing and the downswing as you can see starts encouraging you to swing more to the right which is such a critical part of drawing these balls so the worst way hands on top slicing

00:02:58 across the ball best way move your hands to the right as far as you can and then that will help you swing more into out and close the face to the path so this is a huge element of how to grip the club to help yourself stop slicing the ball this is almost the one that's wrong done universally wrong all the time on the driving range and the friends that you have who also slice the ball into the trees this is the start of your problem now so far we've talked about how the ball flies and now we just

00:03:30 covered a little bit about how turning your grip and where every position that on the shaft has a huge variance and how closed the faces to the target and to the path you need to swing it on so the next step is to start to build an actual swing that will keep your swing direction from getting too far to the left it's real easy to do on to the next video
