You've seen how lining yourself up mentally and physically can help eliminate a slice. The next little key I want to try is understand the alignments of the face a lot of these new drivers have the ability to adjust the hosel when you adjust the house where you can open or close the face and sometimes if you're not careful you can open that face too much. If you get that face sitting in it to open condition it's very easy to leave the face open so remember you need to make sure that the ball the ball target line in the face are perpendicular.
So the easiest way to look at that is to take a club and put it down parallel to your ball target line right on the outside of the ball that should be recently parallel and set my face perpendicular to that, that I know as I look at it is a square face. So I know as I look down that's what square is sometimes when we take this perpendicular line in a way this can actually look square or this can actually square so it's very very important that you understand where square open and closed is and remember any of these clubs that you can adjust the hosel also affects the face. So remember get this face nice and square and when it's nice and square it's going to be a whole lot easier for you to shut down as the ball leaves the ball of the blade and that's going to cause you to hit the ball to the left more often.
