When you ask some average golfer what is the most common golfing error they generally do around 80% of them will point out to golf swing slice. Due to this error they always lag behind in the game. Even if they have good chipping or putting skills the poor slice shot always takes the game away from them and ultimately their scores remain poor. Some of the golfers take years to figure out what causes this slice shot, but they never really can find out. That is why golf slice has been the number one enemy of millions of golfers around the world. But if you want to be a good golfer then correcting your golf swing slice is a must.
If you are able to correct your golf slice then you can easily be able to shave off few strokes of your golf game and improve your score. The reason for this slice shot is due to the unnatural rotation of the body during the swing. Now, one must think by what ways you can cure a golf slice. The first thing that you can do in terms of correcting it is to trying to develop proper swing mechanics. You can also choose some other things like the Anti slice golf tees.
Anti- slice golf tee is a plastic tee with a conventional stem like any other golf tee. The thing that makes it different from normal golf tee is its special design. This tee has a curved flap wraping around the striking surface of the ball and acting as an insulator to spin, hence reducing the slice. The flap on the tee protects the ball from spinning which is caused by the open club face and as result of the ball goes straight.
How does it Work
The anti-slice golf tees are specially designed to help prevent you from slicing the golf ball. The slice generally occurs due to excessive side spin on the golf ball generated from the club coming out and inside the normal swing plane. The anti slice golf tee has a backstop which covers the side of the ball. So, the club hits the lip of the tee which reduces the spin on the ball and the ball follows a straighter path.
These anti-slice golf tees not always solve your problem especially if you have horrid slice. It can reduce the slice up to some extent but not totally. The truth about these anti-slice golf tees is this that they are not legal to use on the PGA, USGA LPGA Tour or any USGA sanctioned golf event. So, it is always advisable not to get used of these tees and always try to minimize their use.
