Just because it’s going right doesn’t mean you’re hitting a slice—it could be a block.
Here’s the difference: A slice starts left and curves right, and a block flies straight right. Blocks occur when you slide too hard with your lower body on the downswing .
The club drops behind you and swings too much from the inside. You have too much lateral motion and not enough turn through the shot.
To promote turn, take a narrow stance, about a foot wide, and hit drives at 75 percent. With a narrow base, you won’t be able to slide much without falling over.
You’ll make a better turn, and the club will swing straighter down the line, with your arms turning over to square the clubface
