Golf Swing Instruction: How to Eliminate Your Golf Slice
Is there anything more embarrassing to a golfer than the dreaded slice? I mean other than the total whiff, what golf event has you feeling the need to explain yourself to your playing partners. I’ve said or heard all of the excuses. Like someone blew a car horn, the dog was barking or even the crows were too loud to list a few. Embarrassing indeed. No wonder so many of us are saying, “Someone please help cure my slice!”
Dooley Duffer remembers his moment of desperation. He was playing a long par 3 when his attempt at a tee shot went terribly to the right. It started out briefly on the correct line, but then not far past the ladies tee it turned hard to the right. This was more than your normal slice. The ball seemed to turn nearly 90 degrees! What made it worse was that there were homes along the hole. This ball hit someone’s aluminum patio enclosure with such force it sounded like a gun shot. Folks all over the course took notice of the sound. Everyone within view was staring at me, the folks on the green, the next tee and the prior green. What a hopeless duffer.
Dooley turned that embarassment into motivation and began in earnest to seek an effective golf slice cure. He bought books, read magazines, talked to his golf buddies, searched websites and even paid for lessons. They all offered good advice but he had little success in finding a slice correction. So heI bought training gadgets and tools. Still little progress.
Then I came across a popular eBook a guy recommended to me during a golf tournament. It is written by Jack Moorehouse and has helped over 100,000 golfers improve their game. I turned Dooley on to it. After all he is my best friend and golf buddy.
You see what Dooley learned is that it is not just a grip change, or just stance adjustment, or just a takeaway or a downswing correction that is needed. What he needed and was able to do with Jack’s help was work on all the swing components that factored into his striking the ball with an open clubface causing the slice. Eureka! He found a cure for a golf slice.
No longer would heI have to aim far left and hope the ball stayed in play on the right somewhere. Golf has been a lot more fun for me since then!
Jack Moorehouse is considered one of the best golf guru’s in the country and he’s here to help you with his best-selling golf eBook, “How to Break 80…And Shoot Like the Pros.”
If you are really serious about fixing your slice I could not recommend any better source to you than “How to Break 80…”.
The best thing is that all of this help is less than most lessons with a pro, a single training aide or instructional DVD. And he is offering a 90-day money back guarantee, so if you don’t like the book simply return it. But, once you get into his drills, I highly doubt that you’ll need that guarantee. Dooley sure didn’t.

“Bill Harmon Plane-EZ Golf Swing Trainer The Plane-EZ? Golf Swing Trainer can revolutionize every aspect of your game. From putting to driving, it’s the only teaching aid you’ll ever need! — Grip — Full Swing — Bunker Game — Chipping — Putting — The Plane-EZ Golf Swing Trainer combines an internal elastic strap with a solid adjustable yoke. This technology gently restrains the golfer’s arms, yet allows a freedom of motion not found in other training aids. The unique “”push-pull”" action causes the wearer to make a full shoulder turn and to swing “”on-plane”" every time! The Plane-EZ Golf Training System includes the Plane-EZ Golf Swing Trainer?and a 35 minute instructional video featuring Bill Harmon, one of GOLF Magazine’s?Top 100 Teachers in America, and Cindy Reid, PGA and LPGA Teaching Professional. Instruction covers 5 lessons on the most important aspects of your game: Most golfers (80%) slice the ball because they swing “”over the top”", that is, on a steep, outside-to-inside swing plane. Until the golfer learns to swing along the proper swing plane or path, slicing will be a continual problem. The key to swinging on-plane is to maintain the arm triangle formed at address throughout the swing. By preventing breakdown in the distance between the golfer’s elbows, the Plane-EZ Golf Swing Trainer? maintains the arm triangle and encourages an on-plane swing time after time. You too can learn to “”defy the law of slice”" by letting the Plane-EZ? teach you the benefits of a consistent, on-plane golf swing! What is the swing plane? The swing plane can be viewed as an imaginary line drawn from the ball along the club shaft through the golfer’s shoulders. It is only by swinging the club along this plane or path that the golfer can ever hope to achieve a consistent golf swing. Why must the golfer swing on-plane? Swinging on plane is the key to good golf because each time the club shaft changes direction in relation to the target line, the club face angle changes in relation to the ball. If the club shaft strays off-plane, so will the club face – either opening or closing to the target line. And as the club face goes, so goes the ball! What is the “”arm triangle”"? In order to consistently swing on-plane, the golfer must learn to maintain the “”arm triangle”" between the shoulders, arms and hands – throughout the entire swing. If the relative position between the shoulders, arms and hands is altered or broken, the golfer can’t swing on-plane. Where does the arm triangle break down? During the golf swing, the arm triangle naturally “”folds and unfolds,”" both at the top of the back swing and in the downswing. When this folding and unfolding motion occurs (a good thing), many golfers allow their elbows to move closer together or farther apart (a bad thing). How does the Plane-EZ? differ from other training aids? The Plane-EZ’s? unique, patented design maintains the critical distance between the elbows, yet allows for a greater range of motion than other training aids. The Plane-EZ?attaches below the elbows to allow a full, unrestricted shoulder turn and is fully adjustable for right or left-handed golfers, ages 12 and up. You can practice with or without golf balls, on the range, in the backyard or even in your living room! How can the Plane-EZ? cure my dreaded slice shot? The slice shot is usually the product of an “”outside-in”" swing path. The Plane-EZ? prevents a “”flying right elbow”" on the back swing, thereby promoting an “”inside out”" swing path. The Plane-EZ? also helps pull the right elbow back to the side on the downswing. This has been coined the “”magic move”" by some experts, because without it an “”inside-out”" golf swing is next to impossible! How can the Plane-EZ? cure my hook shots? By keeping the elbows together, the Plane-EZ? helps prevent a collapsing left elbow and teaches the golfer to drive the hands through to the target to avoid a “”short arm”" st
