Why Your Golf Ball Still Slices Right After You Aim Left

You aim left off the tee, make your best swing, and the ball still slices right. This week: how an open clubface and an over-the-top path team up, and a simple feel to start squaring it.

The rest — the part that makes it click — is for members.
Why it's worth $9.90/mo

One good week pays for a month. This saves you many.

You're not paying for 'content' (that's everywhere and half-wrong). You're paying for the tested way, the exact steps, every week — and for a real answer when you get stuck.

“For years I aimed left on the first tee and watched my slice drift right into the trees. Reading why the clubface was open made more sense than every quick golf tip I'd collected.”

“I kept swinging harder and my back paid for it. The letters finally explained my slice and my flying right elbow in plain words, without selling me another golf club.”

Fair questions
Do I need new golf clubs or training aids?

No. The letters work on clubface, path and sequence with the clubs already in your bag. There is no gadget or launch monitor to buy.

Will this be hard on my back or hips?

The approach favors rhythm and sequence over force, so the drills are meant to be calm and repeatable. If anything hurts, stop and check with your doctor.

Isn't this on the internet for free?

Bits of it, scattered and half-wrong. Here it's tested, start to finish, with the exact steps — and a fresh one every week.

I'm not as young as I was — is it hard?

No. Plain steps, big print, one a week. Nothing fancy, the way it's always been done.
