eagle, don't feel too bad, the driver is the easist club to hit badly. There's more than one way to hit a slice.... If you are still taking lessons, perhaps your teacher can video your swing and show you why you are slicing. There are swing theories out there which don't rely on a conscious rotation of your wrists. If your pro cannot communicate effectively what you need to do, maybe you need a new teacher. Finding someone who you click with as a student/teacher relationship will definitely further your game.

And there's always the 3 wood....

Make sure you are pulling the handle downward for your first move. Don't try flopping the head towards the ball. That can cause a over the top move which will result in some very crappy golf shots. Makes sure when you desend down you are literally pulling the grip butt down towards your target.

Anyway there are a lot of reason why you could be slicing. Just keep practicing and get some lessons. Lots of them.

Hi Eagle

If I may add...there is another factor that may contribute to your slice in addition to the ones well discussed above.

The grip size of your driver do play a part. If the grip is "too big" (relatively), it will result in a slice due to the difficulty in the wrist rotation as you have mentioned.

Please let me know if you need more details.

Cheers
