So I went out for a round today and applied your method just to remind you I’ve had a massive slice for years to the point I haven’t used my driver for almost 5yrs. Today I hit nearly ever fairway and also was cheeky enough to hit a draw. My mates were just as amazed as I was. Getting rid of the tight hands worked like gold. Thanks for fixing and making the driver a beautiful thing 😊😊
That's great. That stunned look on their faces. These are the stories I love. Hopefully, they will want to do it too. Keep up the good work. Fun times ahead for you.
Paul, I read this yesterday. I am always slicing and had for years many kinds of so called “cures”. Today I went to the golf course and played 9 holes. NO SLICE at all. I hit the imaginary tee behind the golfball and that’s it. Thank you so much!
Paul, this is one of the best tips on how to cure s slice. What's amazing is how easy it is to practice. You make golf not only fun but EASY to understand. Thanks Paul.
This is a good one for sure. Curing slices in minutes is one of my specialties. Super easy yet people really struggle. Once you get rid of the slice the game is so much easier and way more fun. Keep at it.
I'm a left handed player and just starting out. Hardly any instructional videos for left handed players. Thanks for including left handed instructions in this video. If you could please include more in your video that will be much appreciated. Thanks for the Videos 👍😎
Glad you liked the tip. I always refer to things in generic terms like top bottom, forward back so everyone can understand them. When I swing though I kind of have to do it right handed but from the front I am the exact mirror image of you so you actually have the best of both worlds.
I played the lowest round ever yesterday after watching your tempo, and this video a couple times before I went out. Hit three greens, and for the first time ever got a few pars, and birdie opportunities that I blew due to be so excited that my shots to the green were so epic. I started with a double bogie, then remembered the tempo video. Awesome videos Paul.
Great job! You are on your way. Stay focused and try to not work on too many things at a time. See the simplicity of it. Do a few drills to master a few moves and you will keep getting better and better.
Hi Paul- Really enjoy your tips. Yesterday, I hit a bucket and did the Hinge drill before every shot. A lot of shots were great but quite a few were pushes out to the left. I am a lefty. Thanks. Leon
So the ones to the left were you holding the face open. So ... roll it sooner. This is literally how simple this is. If you rolled it and every shot went straight or hooked you would not longer be a slicer. So for the ones that hooked you would be adding more body to straighten them out. So keep rolling it from the top and get rid of any slice spin. Once you can do that then work on body.
Hi Paul, when your hands cross over at the bottom of the swing, is the action of "crossing over" a result of loose wrists AND lower-body-firing (LBF) combined with perfect timing at point of impact or is "timing at impact" not a conscious thought but instead a direct result of loose wrists and LBF?
Exactly. Fix the spin. Once you do that start adding body to straighten it out if you are hooking it. I could fix you in 10 mins. No joke. Watch me do it: howtocureaslice.com/
Glad you noticed. I have been getting amazing results for years. Covid has allowed me to get back on UA-cam and post almost daily. So it was just a matter of time before golfers started getting better. It will keep growing now. I would like to get the word out there to stop hitting with the arms etc. and finally get people improving. It really is unbelievable how people are still struggling with this game but people keep trying to hit with the arms and few people are telling them not to. Let's see what I can do about that as we move into the future.

I have tons of lower body tips now posted. Try this one. It's an easy way to get you hips moving: ua-cam.com/video/j1mS5Ku8Q10/v-deo.html
As the club is parallel to the ground in the downswing it is hinged to its maximum. From here on it is unhinging. Think of it like a 2 x 4 with a hinge on the end. It would not release at the top it would compress the angle until the angle releases. In no way do I want you thinking about it unless you are trying to purposely roll the wrists (roll over drill) and get the ball hooking. If you are doing this you are rolling from the top. Once you eliminate all slice spin you stop trying to roll it and allow it to happen.
Hi Paul, I don't understand why my clubface is so open even with loose wrists. Am I not hinging properly? Am I releasing too late? I just feel like if I have to roll over my wrists, it is forcing it and hard to time right.
There is timing between the release and body rotation. If you only speed up the body of course you would blow it right. You need to hit 10 hooks in a row. This speed up the release. Now you can drive the lower harder to straighten it out. If you blow it right do it again. Do this but early: ua-cam.com/video/Xk7t9yHCO-I/v-deo.html So feel the arms. Roll it from the top and get it hooking first. This is step one. Once you can hook it you are doing half right. Then you add body to straighten it out. It is that simple.
If you are coming over the top you are hitting with arms which is leaning your forward in the downswing. Watch: ua-cam.com/video/sbE-hzTXgNo/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/2cPM_FSoHNM/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/KlffJzbskmM/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/m8FxSZSmKEw/v-deo.html (secret tip) Learn the neutral grip too here: ua-cam.com/video/jQZLp8bF-Ww/v-deo.html
this manner of squaring the clubface (at impact) seems contrary to some other popular pros who teach squaring the face in the backswing by bowing wrist (while shallowing the club), then turning your body through impact. Paul's way seems a lot simpler and easier.
Exactly. Glad you see it. I literally watch the top videos on this subject last night. None will fix a slice. I have literally cured thousands of people in minutes. For those non-believers just watch this video and how long it took my to fix 9 slicers I never met before. You don't have to buy the product just watch the video: paulwilsongolf.com/cure-slice
Hi Paul, great video as usual. Quick question, what do you think of playing with a very strong left hand to get a more solid strike ( also to eliminate slice)? Thanks, Des
I am hitting my irons really pure now, but when i hit the long irons they tend to have a fade (more than i want). My short irons and driver are straight but for some reason the long irons slice. Im am really lose and love the way i hit my shorter irons and driver. DO u have any idea why this occurs?
Thanks. Hybrids are a little easier to hit. I am old school so I like hitting long irons. If maybe you learn with hybrids then hit a few long irons into the future once you are a better player to see if you like them.
If anyone doubts the importance of loose wrists, watch Phil Mickelson swing in slow motion. He begins the downswing with extraordinary lag. His wrists are loose as cooked spaghetti which allow them to turnover (release) just as Paul describes. Also note that he keeps a secure grip with his leading hand, again, just as Paul teaches. Phil is 51-years-old and drove a ball in the PGA Championship 366 yards, after rollout, while outdriving young muscle boy, Brooks Koepka. The most important aspect of the swing is simply staying loose. If you can master that one thing (easier said than done for established hackers like many of us), the other swing components fall into place much, much easier.
Exactly, just go to convince the world to try it for 1 bucket of balls. I am getting there but need everyone's help to get the word out. Imagine everyone hitting it long and straight as well as playing without pain. Wouldn't that be good. Everyone would play in 4 hours too and rarely lose golf balls.
I’m 2 months into this obsession and the moment I started watching your videos (starting with the hip video) and applying your techniques, people started complimenting me and noting my progress. Thanks for the great stuff Paul! I hope we can coordinate a lesson together one day!!
Hey Paul, you provide me a good visual on how to make sure I hinge and re-hinge. Does the re-hinging automatically happens after you've hit the ball? And, is maintaining lag tightens your grip and arms? Thanks always!
If your wrists are tight you need to manually do this to loose up the wrists. Once loose it happens on its own. As far as the grip is concerned watch: ua-cam.com/video/Z8K3Gctkz7A/v-deo.html
I do the banana shot with my driver. I will try this at the practice range and see what happens. My coach calls it 'turning the shower off'. One questions, does it apply to irons as well?
You can do it with irons too. It can be easier because irons are shorter. Remember though ... this is just the spin. Your body affects direction which you work on after you get the spin fixed.
In order to hit it longer you need to fire your lower body way harder than you currently are. As people age they have trouble firing that hard. 220 on the fly ... yes. 250 on the fly ... that would be tough. If you were or are a better player and have hit it 250 in your life then maybe. We don't do swing analysis anymore. I do live video coaching through my app. You can find out more here: bodyswing.com/coachlink
@@paulwilsongolf Thank you Paul. I would be happy with 250 total. Doing all you exercises everyday. I have gotten much better. Been as good as a 2 20 years ago. Now a 5. I will get the apps.
If you have been a 2 hdcp is easily doable because you have done it before. You just need to get it back. This tip may help: ua-cam.com/video/8docjX_sxUk/v-deo.html

I am against the strong grip. Watch: ua-cam.com/video/Hh_uALjl_jk/v-deo.html
Thank you Paul ..... how much does that outside - in swing path add to the slice? Or should I just stay focused on the hinge ?
Get the hinge rehinge first. I have other tips on path. This is just spin.
Hi Paul, does this apply to all clubs, even clubs like fairway woods and hybrids off the ground?
Yes, anything longer though you will have the tendency to swing hard and hook it. So do it before you hit those shots.

You are sliding. Need to turn more in the downswing.

Very good. It's great when you can fix it.
Recently I had strengthened my grip too much to compensate my slice but it still spins.... Thanks!
Right. Because a strong grip doesn't mean you are going to straighten out your shots. Loosen your wrists as I show in the video.
