Free Golf Lessons - What a Cheek!

Free golf lessons. Get outta here!

How many of us would have the cheek to approach a world leading golf coach and ask him for a free golf lesson?

not many, I suspect.

Well it turns out that the idea is not so far fetched after all - that is if you don't expect a belly to belly consultation with a guru of the game such as Steve Bann, Coach to Stuart Appleby and KJ Choi.

But, that does not mean you have to lower your expectations. If the objective is to really improve your game, as opposed to having a chit chat with the man and allowing him to witness you belt out an embarrassing bucket of balls, then the answer may lie with this one.

Bann takes the golfer through a pretty insightful little 10 question online quiz, you hit the submit button (probably not expecting very much!) and lo and behold your golf game gets sliced and diced before your very eyes. Out pops a personalized analysis that sends a shiver down the spine.

Was he really sitting behind my screen in cyberspace, ready to pounce with all this wisdom on how I can get my game on track?

Surely it wasn't that obvious that I am a 27 handicapper hack, afraid to own up to a pot belly and an old set of Pings - the ugly ones - remember the baby boomer sticks with the huge heads. Did he notice that I was decked out in my crocodile PJs when I took the lesson? Oh Dear, I should have been more careful. this virtual reality stuff is getting scary!

Anyhow, Steve Bann may be a golf guru but he has no right to get that insightful with something as personal to me as my golf game.

Aidan Montague used to play golf. He therefore considers himself an authority on the subject.

But, rather than listen to what Aidan has to say it would be wise to get a free golf lesson from a real expert on the subject - someone like Steve Bann, Coach to pga tour players, Stuart Appleby and KJ Choi

What Is The Golf Swing Slice

There are a couple of different types of slicing. Although basically, the effect is the same, you miss the target and end up with a higher score.

So you ask, how many types of slices are there and what are they? Although the figures may vary, there are at least 3 forms of slicing. All the rest are just variations of these 3 and produce more or less the same effect on your swing. These are:

1. Straight Slice

An initial straight path characterizes this slice once the ball is hit. However, midway in its flight, the ball will swerve either to the right or left depending on the individuals swinging hand. This is the most common type of slice; since most golfers aim to drive the ball straight through the course and take great pains in ensuring the downswing path is straight.

However, even with a perfect aim for the downswing, if the golf club hits the ball with an open clubface, this will cause the slice. So the goal is to not only hit with a perfect downswing but to ensure that the clubface is 'square' once it hits the ball.

2. pull Slice

The downswing path for a push slice starts from the outside going in, and also includes an open clubface. Thus causing the ball to fly towards the left upon impact, and then gradually swerve to the right. This is due to the 'spin' generated by the open clubface hit on the ball.

3. push Slice

This last form of a slice is characterized by an inside to outside swing path plus an open clubface hit. again this produces a spin on the ball upon impact, but this time the ball flies immediately to the right. But due to the additional spin generated, the ball will swerve drastically to the right even further.

Based on the information we have discussed about the various forms of the slice, the only common denominator between them is that they will always include an open clubface hit.

At its most basic, an open clubface will not induce much of a spin on the ball to cause it to make an extreme turn. However, if combined with an improper downswing, the effect will be destructive enough to cause the ball to entirely miss its target.

So the key here is practice, practice and more practice. Correcting a slice cannot be done overnight and the learning curve is different between each individual. But if you're willing to put in the work to fix the problem, you will be reaping the reward in the end. A perfect game may not be too far out of the horizon.

You might not get in the PGA tour, but at least you'll enjoy the game more and that's a reward in itself.
