iv been just aiming left but its just to much of a slice to keep duing that <im fourteen and i use adult clubs>
A slice with the driver is caused by the club head approaching the ball from an outside-to-inside path, with the clubhead "open." You are probably strong and perhaps used to play baseball, which promotes staying well behind the ball through impact, and hence the open clubhead.
Instead, when you reach the top of your backswing, try to feel yourself moving to your left side (if you swing right handed), while your club moves closer to your body, and then allow it to release from an inside-to-outside path, which will promote a draw spin, or a straight ball. You will be hitting it great in no time.
In order to correct a golf slice, a golfer needs to look at his grip to make sure that it isn’t too much on top of the club. Take a stronger grip of a golf club to correct a slice with help from a member of the PGA National Teaching Committee in this free video on slices in golf.

What drills, visualization, etc. have helped YOU fix your golf slice (with a driver)?
Posted by admin
I, like a lot of people, slice my driver more than my irons. What have others out there done to fix similar problems?
Put a headcover or towel under your left (assuming you’re right-handed) armpit. This keeps you connected, and guarantees your hands will turn over and release the clubhead, bringing you at worst a straight drive, at best a nice draw.
A little side drill for weight transfer is to place a golf ball under the outside of your right foot. This will teach you to push off with the back foot, so you should have at least 80% of your weight on your left foot in the finish.
These two drills should get you into an in-sync swing that’s dynamic and finished properly, which will encourage a straight drive.
how do I fix that everytime I lose an average of 5 golf balls it ticks me off even if I have the clubface the right way it always goes to the left
could this be because I stand to far away from the ball I need to stop loosing so many golf balls I have to go buy golf balls every week or 2 and I waste money buy them and sometimes I have to borrow golf ball from other people it makes me feel like a doofus please help me
There are so many things that can cause the ball to go left as you are describing that any advice is just going to be guessing, and taking a chance of messing you up even more.
You could have the ball too far back in your stance, too far forward, your alignment could be off, your swing plance could be off, grip could be the issue, etc. The golf swing has alot of variables.
Honestly, the quickest and most painless way to fix it is to take a lesson from a certified PGA professional. It will probably run $35-$60 depending on the pro, but it will help your game more than any $400 driver ever could.
If for some reason a lesson isn’t feasible I would recommend finding a friend who is a skilled golfer to take a look at your swing. It might not be as accurate as a pro looking at your swing but it is much better than just guessing at what is wrong.
If for some reason getting a lesson is not feasible and a friend isn’t available, get a mirror and a video camera and look at your swing yourself. What you feel happening and what is actually happening are often two different things, and visually seeing yourself will give you a strong indication of where the problem lies. Compare your swing to professionals of a similar build to yourself and work from there.
Good luck!

r7 draw
I play golf and I play regularly. My handicap is 15 but off the tee box I almost always slice the ball almost 30 yards from where I intended. I take nice, smooth swings but I think it’s my setup.
The usual cause of a slice is a clubface that’s open at impact. In terms of setup, you need to check your grip; you want what’s known as a "strong" grip.
You might also check your equipment. A driver with more offset can help; so might a club that’s weighted to promote a draw. You also might look at one that’s higher lofted; the greater spin will produce more accurate results.
Finally, reconsider the driver off the tee altogether. For most 15 handicappers, the 3 wood will produce nearly as much distance (some studies say more)… but with the higher loft, your shots will be straighter. Ask yourself. Would you rather be 250 yards out in the rough, or 230 in the fairway?
Golf
A draw in golf is when your ball starts out right after contact then turns slightly to the left(for right handed golfers) as opposed to a hook that turns more pronounced to the left.
A fade is more or less a mirror image of a draw, starting out left with a turn to the right. A slice is more pronounced right turn than a fade.
A pull happens when you hit the ball and it goes straight left with no turn, usually due to the swing or the ball staying on the club head face too long.
