Fix your slice

Fix your slice by fixing its cause.

For right-handed golfers a slice curves hard to the right because the clubface is open to the swing path at impact. That is the symptom. DeepSwing shows you on video which move in your swing is behind it and gives you the drill for it.

Ball flight

How a slice happens.

The start direction comes mostly from the clubface, the curve from the difference between face and path. If the club comes from out to in and the face is open to it, the ball curves right.

Slice

How it flies
Starts straight or slightly left, then curves hard to the right.
Common cause
The clubface is open to the swing path at impact, often from too little lead-side rotation or early extension.
What helps
Improve hip and torso rotation through impact and keep the lead wrist flatter.

Hook

How it flies
Starts right and curves hard to the left.
Common cause
The clubface closes fast: a strong hand and arm release with limited body rotation.
What helps
Keep your posture and let the body clear through the ball earlier.

Push

How it flies
Starts right of the target and keeps flying straight right.
Common cause
Face and path both point right, often from sequencing drift: head sway or throwing the arms too early.
What helps
Keep the head stable and sequence from the ground up: legs first, then torso, then arms.

Fat

How it flies
The club hits the ground first and the ball comes up short and weak.
Common cause
The low point of the swing sits behind the ball, from an early trail-side drop or too little shift forward.
What helps
Shift pressure to the lead side earlier and keep your spine angle stable.

Thin

How it flies
The ball is struck too high and flies low along the ground.
Common cause
The low point is too far forward, or you lift up through impact.
What helps
Keep your posture, allow slight lead-side flex and extend only after contact.

Flights simplified, for right-handed golfers. DeepSwing measures body and clubhead motion, not the clubface itself: the app derives the tendency from your checks.

Over the top

See the path of your clubhead.

From the down-the-line view DeepSwing measures swing plane and over the top on the detected clubhead path. You see whether your downswing sits above your backswing path.

Body

The move behind the curve.

Too little hip turn at the top, a bent lead arm, missing weight shift or early extension: the app links these checks to the slice tendency and shows you which one applies to you.

  • Lead arm
  • Weight shift and early extension

Drill

Practice, film, compare.

Every check comes with a drill video and step-by-step instructions. After practice you film again and compare both swings phase by phase.

    Game changer!

    I have been using this app for several months and it has helped me so much. … One of the things I like most is that I can experiment with different grips or moves and see the impact immediately. … I have never hit the ball better and my consistency has improved dramatically.

    Helpful AI analysis for better golf

    I have been using DeepSwing for a few weeks and I love it. The app analyzes my swing, especially my tee shots, and shows me right afterwards what I can do better. Much better than ordinary video apps. …

Questions, answered

Why do I slice the golf ball?

Because the clubface is open to the swing path at impact, usually with an out-to-in path. Behind it there is often a downswing over the plane (over the top), too little lead-side rotation or early extension.

Can an app fix my slice?

It shows you the cause and the matching drill. You fix it on the range, but with a clear direction instead of trial and error.

Which camera angle do I need to see a slice cause?

Ideally both: down-the-line shows swing plane and over the top, face-on shows weight shift, sway and head movement.

How long does it take to fix a slice?

It depends on the cause. If you do the matching drill regularly and film again, History shows whether the value moves toward the ideal range.

Does this work for a driver slice?

Yes. Pick the driver as your club, the matching ideal ranges apply, and the speed estimate shows whether the change costs you speed.
