The lagging drill has changed my game! It forces you to maintain the angle, which counters the slice. Definitely worth practicing regularly!

I think a few times a week is ideal. Consistency over intensity! You could focus on one drill each session.

Hank’s drills seem straightforward enough, but how often should we practice them? Daily practice might be overwhelming for some!

I appreciate Haney’s emphasis on body alignment before the swing. It’s easy to overlook that. Any tips for maintaining good posture during practice?

Can someone please explain why a slice happens in the first place? I think understanding the ‘why’ helps us fix it better.

A slice usually occurs due to an outside-to-inside swing path and an open clubface at impact. Haney’s drills aim to correct these issues.

Practice makes perfect, but let’s not forget to enjoy the game! Humor helps. I mean, who knew slicing would make me feel like a golf comedian?

The core rotation is crucial! If your body moves in sync, your swing will improve exponentially.

Trying to master my follow-through has helped too! It’s all interconnected. Thanks, Hank!

I agree! The follow-through reinforces a good swing path. Anyone struggled with keeping their head still during the swing?

Yes, I struggle with that. It’s tough not to peek! I’ve tried focusing on a specific spot on the ground to improve that.

That’s a great tip! I’ll try implementing that strategy next time.
