Imagine playing golf on a beautiful afternoon; the fairway gleams like a green sea before you, and then the terrible thing happens: your drive makes a disastrous veer right.

The slice is the most common culprit. A slice generally occurs when the clubface strikes the ball at an angle, creating excessive, unwanted spin. What is the goal? The goal is to square the clubface up with the ball, and then send the shot straight down the fairway. Spend a few minutes practicing your grip. Your grip is often as telling as your poker hand. A weak grip-where the hands rotate toward the target-can be the silent culprit. Your knuckles should be saying hello. That is to say, grip the club so that you can see two to three of them. Consider holding hands with a friend instead of strangling the garden hose. Your grip should be a balance between firmness and flexibility. Imagine that you're about to take a photo, just for argument sake. Perfect posture is important. Set up with most of your weight on your back foot; as you make your swing through, shift your weight forward. The pendulum rocks back and forth without jerking this way and that, much like an old grandfather clock. That balance will take even the scrawniest of swings and make it more graceful than chaos.
