Gerry James gives us great insight on how we won the Long Drive Championship. By basic fundamentals and a good open at address stance he believes power can be created much more than squared shoulders to the ball.

Take a look at the video in the Source section of this awnesr. It may not directly awnesr your question about fixing your slice, but it talks more about the swing timing and take-back. I fixed my slice by drawing the driver straight back from the ball until my natural body rotation lifted the club from the ground and then behind me. Do not pause in your backswing, go directly but smoothly into a forward motion. As you strike the ball, try to throw your hands towards your target, following through with your swing high and above your shoulders, not behind you like a baseball swing. The video shows an excellent practice method that should help fix your slice. Set up like normal, then lift the driver just above the ball. Like a pendulum, rotate your upper torso to swing the driver towards your target, then directly into your backswing. Without stopping your backswing, make a smooth transition into your forward swing and followthough by turning your torso toward your target (belt buckle facing target). If it sounds confusing, watch the video below. It really will help. Good Luck!
