I currently use a macgregor driver with stiff flex and a 9.5 degree loft. most of my drives are either slices that hit the woods to the right or i pull it way to the left. Any suggestions on what im doing wrong/ if i should change flex or loft? (16 years old, righty, 6 feet/ 150 lbs, drive 265-285 yards)|||Your flex is ok if you swing around 95-110 mph which based on your size, age and distance you probably do. Since you are pulling and slicing you are probably casting the club outside-in.
Start by flexing your knees and keeping them flexed through the entire swing to keep your body in-line. Shorten your backswing to stay avoid overturning your arms. In your swing, your shoulders must turn on a plane that points at the ball, not level... Try to hit the inside 1/4 of the back of the ball and focus on a high finish to get to an in-out-in swing path.|||take a slow swing. Think mentally about the swing. If it goes left the clubface is shut and your going to far inside. If its going right at impact the clubface is open and your swing is too up and down. also try closing your clubface slightly to get rid of going to the right. going left is always better than right for a righthanded golfer.|||It sounds like your are relying on timing, rather than turning. You could try keeping a golf glove or towel under your forward-side arm pit. This will help you to turn your body, not just your arms, which makes your margin for error much smaller. Good luck.|||You cant really help much without seeing your swing in person, but lining the ball up with your left foot which means scooting back on the ball a little.
