ORLANDO, Fla. – The dreaded slice is a plague on golfers everywhere and one of the most common swing miscues in golf. In Breaking Your Slice, a new 10-part series streaming today exclusively on the GolfPass website, app and on connected devices, swing coach and GolfPass instructor Nathalie Sheehan is on the case to offer tips and drills to help make the slice a thing of the past.
“Because it’s such a common problem, curing the slice often sits number-one on the list of solutions golfers want,” Sheehan said. “This series will provide a clearer picture of why you’re slicing and how to fix it, with tons of drills you can take to the golf course right away. You’ll be slice-free in no time!”
After tremendous success as both a junior golfer and Division I player at the University of Delaware, Sheehan began her teaching career working for PGA Master Professional and former PGA of America President Suzy Whaley. In addition to her role as a GolfPass instructor, she also is the teaching professional at The Vinoy Golf Club in St. Petersburg, Fla.
Breaking Your Slice will help eliminate the common swing flaws that often combine to create havoc in any golfer’s game. All episodes can be streamed on demand, with each highlighting a theme, such as grip and setup; proper transition and release; club path; club face; and transitioning to the golf course, among other skills to help cure the slice.
Breaking Your Slice was produced on location at Providence Golf Club in Davenport, Fla.
