Collar Drill

Problem

You want to draw the ball without making any adjustments to your swing or have a weak slice.

Cure

Try using thinner grips to encourage a better release. A little head movement is necessary during the golf swing. However, sometimes a player will try so hard to prevent any head movement that their head only moves forward, towards the target and causes them to pull or slice the ball.

Therapy

If you do not want to make any adjustments to your swing at this time, try simply keeping your head back, behind the ball. An easy way to practice this is to put the collar up on your shirt and keep your cheek touching the collar throughout the swing.
