Never clicked on a video so fast in my life
Cause of the slice? Same here hahaha
Same lol
Hope it works
Same man 😂
Is this bubbies burner?
Grant is a big asset to GG. Great lesson
Hes a bit lippy though 😆 🤣
This did not age well 🤣
This has to be the best breakdown video of how to correct a slice I've seen on TH-cam. Keep it up Grant!
So true
I’ve watched hours of “how to’s” to fix your slice and none have ever worked for me, until I watched one video and it clicked… I’ll get to that in a second. Coming from playing baseball when I was younger your taught all your power comes from your hips to start your swing, that explosive burst of twisting hips and then you “pull” the bat through. In my golf swing I found the harder I tried to rotate my hips the more exaggerated my get my slice would get, because it would end up opening the face of my club (driver) and when I would pull through it would bring my hands forward and rotating them in a clock wise fashion on my down swing. For you baseball players it basically felt like trying to swing at a ball just below knee height over the plate. Here is what clicked for me in the video I watched. I found out it wasn’t my stance, wasn’t my grip, wasn’t I didn’t tuck my elbow. It was bringing a different sport I never played into the equation. It was actually making my swing replicate that of a Hockey player. Where your lower body stays square, but on your backswing your arms stay straight, but your shoulders turn. Just imagine holding your club normally but slide your bottom hand down the shaft till your elbow locks out and then bring it back just like a hockey player does. This was the “ahh ha” moment for me as when I would come on my down swing it was my shoulders turning first, keeping my club head in the exact place I had it and not opening up when I brought my hips first. Once I started my downswing my shoulders would turn and my hips would then follow, and as I got used the the swing change I could then bring my hips with my shoulders to rotate even faster. So now instead of having a ball off the tee that went 200yards straight and did a 90* turn another 100 yards, may go 10-15 yards to the right, or on occasion a draw. I swear my slice was so bad I could’ve entered a trick shot competition with it. I would love to go on a simulator and just how much changing my backswing has changed my approach angle and other things.
You should make a video showing this 👍
Grant needs to have a Lab coat either when doing the labs or in his logo. my slice is only on my drives
Check your shoulder alignment with driver. If your ball position is correct (off left instep for right hand player) make sure you're not turning your shoulders to the ball as this can exaggerate a slice. I had this issue for many years myself. It feels super weird at first and you'll feel like you're aiming way far right. The best way to check this is set up to the ball with driver and then lay the driver shaft across your shoulders and have someone look down it. Your shoulders should be parallel to your feet. I started lessons this summer and in my opinion it's more than worth the money, much more than any equipment I've ever bought! Hope this helps!
Just very much focus on hitting up on the ball. This helped me a lot curing my driver-only-slice.
I know you probably won’t see this but I am so mad that it took me this long to find this video. But I’ve taken numerous lessons and tried too many different drivers to fix my slice. This video literally fixed it. I’m still slicing it but instead of almost every hole it’s only 2-3 times through 18. I appreciate this so much ❤
I played 18 for the first time in years, and I tried the new grip about the emblem facing up with a stronger grip. For the first time in my life, I hit more straight shots than slices. Thank you so much, Grant. Now, I just need to work on my ball contact.
Grant, you are such a huge asset to the GG team. Thank you for sharing this info with all of us.
Been watching good good for like 5 months now and never new about good good labs !!! This is fire
Great video and easy to understand. I don't slice any of my clubs except my driver. I'll take these easy tips to the range tomorrow and see how it goes.
I’ve watched a lot of videos on this and this one is by far the best and easiest to follow!
So so so good! Love the vibe, Grant best coolest golf coach on TH-cam by a mile
Wowwwww y’all really only uploaded this video after I needed it. Got beat by my coach, started slicing after the first 8 holes
Really simple (great) instructions here.
i like how simple and to the point the videos are guys. one critique i would have is the excessive "alright guys so..." its like every cut back to grant he's doing an intro. other than that keep up the good work
I think a lot of younger gen love that. I'm in my 30s and I watch a lot of content from educators and it's night and day how they talk through a video.
Which, I don't expect these guys to do that. But I do think they could tone back on repeating themselves (they do this a lot) and they all do the Mr Burns hand thing where they bridge their fingers together. Feels a little like they're suffering from Ricky Bobby syndrome "I don't know what to do with my hands"
But I still love em. They're kids living their best life.
@@Real28 I mean I’m 22 and I get annoyed af when I hear them repeating themselves. Like it’s mainly when the camera cuts back to them, it’s like they feel they need to do an intro for everything, they all do it but I love the videos and the group dynamics are great. Just a minor criticism I have.
Absolutely love and appreciate the GoodGood Labs videos. Grant makes it easy to understand and explain body position feels that you should have.
Through your guys videos, my slice/fade is a baby draw on command! And now, hitting a fade just feels gross… thank you very much! Keep it up! 😀
Everybody KNOWS the intro music for good labs is 🔥🔥🔥
Awesome lesson….. will be working on this as I have played a slice long enough!
Most useful video I've seen on youtube
Could you do a lab on how to fix a hook with the driver? I’m struggling with that. I’m looking like Garrett out there haha
Hook is exactly opposite to slice, you're too far inside on the downswing and closing the face too much. Often shoulders rotating too early on downswing can cause both if it's only your driver doing it
@@callumalderson5109 thanks! What would you recommend I do to help with that? Any drills or something I need to think about during my swing?
@@benstoddard1040 I would suggest taking a video of your swing first, find out if you are rotating early. If you are work on turning your hips through first and then follow with shoulders.
It could be that you are also hitting the driver in a similar way to your irons, meaning hitting down too much. Again take a side on video to look at attack angle. Driver swing should stay wider of your body and be on an upward trajectory when you make contact with the ball. Being wider doesn't mean to move towards an out to in swing btw, think of your swings as 2 circles of different sizes. Your iron swing is smaller and further forward resulting in a downward impact with compression. The driver is a bigger circle further back leading to an upward impact.
Hope I've not confused you with the wording. If there is somewhere you can get data like they're using here from the trackman that's also very helpful as you can see the numbers and most simulator software can show you the club at impact both with open Vs closed as well as trajectory
You’re lucky. Just open the face. If the ball is starting too far right, you just need to swing more left instead of out
@@callumalderson5109 swinging down on a club, like an iron, will help you fade the ball. Sweeping up on a club, like a long iron or woods/driver, will help you draw the ball.
When Steve gets fit. Game over!
u guys are doing great, thanks for ur videos
Grant you should do a video on how to get a consistent golf swing
I had this problem when I first started playing this summer. Now more often than not I hook my driver, but have no issues with Irons. So I have invested into a 2 iron and can stripe it but would like a video breaking down a duck hook maybe it will help Garrett as well.
Could you do a video going over the best way to read the greens?
Love your content! Can you plz do a video about how to stop hooking/snap hooking! (Driver)
This helped me out so much. I still slice it, but now I don’t slice as much lol. So would that be a fade? Am I hitting a fade now? Lol
I don't have a slice but I'm still watching 'cause it's Good Good!!
Great stuff, very useful for beginners like me!
People will be kicking themselves in few weeks if they miss the opportunity to buy and invest in bitcoin while Edward Morris is till there for them to start investing.
Couldn’t click on this fast enough. Help us out Grant!
I’d love to pay for some lessons. Currently still in the military but I get out in 10 months. Originally from Houston & will be moving back when I’m out! Would love to visit dallas!
love ur videos. didnt know where to ask, but can you guys do a vid about fixing chicken wing on follow through please?
I'm 49 seconds in. These boys are tired or they've had a couple beverages. The sunglasses for Steve makes me think it's the latter. Either way, I love to see it, thank you for the lesson 🍻
Edit: I'm 2 minutes in. These boys are buzzin.
Definitely a few beverages. Grant stumbling over his words. But Bubbie when they were at Top Golf was the loosest I’ve seen any of the GoodGood boys
Oh they are high as fuck
@@blakeedwards1888 bubby is sober, he has touched on that in the past
@@blakeedwards1888 there was a Sunday match with Micah and Garrett on G's 21st birthday. THOSE boys were LOOSE.
What the preferred angle for club path and club face?
Grant makes it so simple
Good job bruv! I love you for doing this video
please do front view of the swing!
Can we see a video on body rotation?! I have no problem getting my hips to rotate but keeping my shoulders in line with them on my back swing is tough. I have a Jon Rahm-ish style swing. Short and compact. Want to see if they’re are any drills on how to get a further and more in sync back swing!
Great presentations! Thank you!
Awesome video! Gonna go practice and maybe now my future father in law won't hate me as much
You should make a video on how to work the ball both ways. I think it would really put this stuff into perspective.
Great video
Quick one..I'm hitting the ball centre club and I'm constantly getting the ball go straight left. Great strike but as far as 20-40 yards left of target . Wtf
Can you please do a how to fix a hook video next?? I have a beautiful swing but have been getting a nasty hook ever recently
If I'm pulling the ball to the left straight, but I usually hit a fade, does that mean that I am coming with a close club but an outside-in?
Grant something I would like for you to shed some light on is club degrees and driver degrees. I currently use a 10 degree driver and when I was fitted for irons he told me I need to be hitting 9 or less. I kinda understand why but think clarification from you would be a helpful lesson.
The takeaway part is the most important part and takes the longest amount of time to get the hang of. Making sure u don’t take the club back too outside and then making sure u stay connected on the back swing. Like when ur hands start going back, make sure u start turning with ur hands, kinda keeping ur hands in the center, like even with ur sternum as u turn. Otherwise ur shot will be really inconsistent.
I'm gunna say this again good good really might be tokin that good good
Camera quality is crispy
Nice store/lab.
Question for the Lab: I hardly ever hit a slice but I do Block out my drives a lot with the ball flight being straight but my direction is 40-50 yards right of where I'm aiming. That's probably my hips getting quicker than my hands but how can I keep my hips in Sync with with my hands, I've tried widening out my stance, Opening my front foot, Playing the ball more in the middle of my Address. How do I fix this without consciously trying to Lag my hips?
At what point can you go to a neutral grip and still close the face at the correct time?
I don't understand step 3 and how swinging to the right. If you swing in the direction of that alightment stick won't you miss the ball?
Come on out to NC and fix my slice lol
Later. Heading to the range
PLEASE DO ONE ON SHANKS
If anyone wants cheap alignment sticks, go buy driveway markers from a hardware store. Take the reflector off and bam you have an alignment stick
Id like to know how to fix a hook!!
Any way you can do a driver specific video? I can draw my irons but not my deiver
How do I fix my draw?
Love your coaching Grant, but damn dawg you look like you just woke up in the bar you closed down.
I have only been hooking the ball lately. Can you do a video on how to fix a hook.
Use spray or impact tape on the face of your driver and see where you typically strike the ball in the club face. If your tendency is high toe like a lot of people that will take a draw and turn it into a hook from gear effect. Hope this helps! Regardless it's always good to know how you're striking the ball!
Try leaning back more at impact and see what happens.
At first I thought that was Dillon Danis!
5:20
Man. Let’s gooooo
Maybe Grant can fix Sharff's hairline too!

"its not negative so that means its positive" - Grant Horvat - 2022
Dang I’m early
This is a great video but another huge reason people struggle to fix their slice is because they don't know how to release the club through impact correctly, and I'm not talking about getting "handsy" and flipping. A stronger (technically neutral) grip helps but if you're not releasing the club you'll get very confused like I did. I can hit a fade or draw now and I release the club on both shots, I just adjust my grip a few degrees stronger/weaker and make the same swing because I was never able to control my club path consistently enough to work the ball that way. Hope this helps someone!
just clicked for me as well. game changer
@@jacobphilpot1458 Yes it most certainly is a game changer! I finally broke 80 this fall and shot the low round of my life, a 78!
@@Reffitt2 nice man! that’s awesome! i was getting fitted for irons and the fitter just told me in a short sentence how to release the club and hit a tight draw for the rest of the fitting it was amazing
@@jacobphilpot1458 No joke?! That's incredible! I would love to get fitted for a set of irons. Well, I'd love to get fit for every club but one step at a time. I started lessons this summer and it's made such a big difference in my game. Well worth the money in my opinion. Now my buddies that I play golf with get mad at me sometimes. At first they were impressed with the dramatic changes then they started getting frustrated. Lol! Especially since they've spent $2-3k on clubs and I'm using an entire set of the new(ish) Tommy Armour 845 series clubs, all except my Odyssey Stroke Lab putter. Honestly the 845 stuff is really good and I hit it just as well as anything else when I got them for less than half the price of big brand. Although I wish I could afford Taylormade, Callaway, Titleist, ect. clubs.
So I'm brand new at golf, and 2 days ago I shot a 132. So frustrating because almost every shot was a slice. Came home, watched this video, and went out yesterday to shoot 100 even. Felt so much better. For some reason this video just clicked with me. Thanks a lot man.
You will break 100 in no time dude. Keep killin it
Shooting 90’s now?
@@CartierGolf 94! Can't wait for the snow to melt so I can keep at it! Break 90 in my sights. :)
@@Underground308 awesome
Grant is one of the better TH-cam instructors I've ever watched. I think the huge difference comes from watching him implement all the tips and instruction from these videos into his personal game on the main channel. I always root for Grant on the challenges, he knows his stuff!
Spent 4 hours on the range yesterday implementing Grant's tips and it is insane to see my swing completely change for the better.
This channel is exactly what beginner and intermediate golfers who want to improve their golf game need. All thanks to you, Grant!
This is good for everybody. Even high level golfers.
Good Good alignment sticks! Hello! You're Welcome....I'll take a free pair for the suggestion. Thanks for the info Grant.
This video changed my game forever
Bubbie`s slice was so much worse, no? xD
Was? Jk. I love watching how good Bubbie is getting. Every match he seems to come up with a putt, drive, chip, whatever to save or win a couple holes. Clutch with a idgaf attitude.
Now it's time to make the inverse video, how to fix a hook!
The editing of the video makes my brain seizure with all the quick shot changes. What's up with the editing?
The grip and the takeaway are huge my coach worked on that with me this year and it’s working!
The problem for me is I hit a slice 50% of the time and a hook 50% of the time 😂 great vid tho
Awesome job, Grant! Another point I would add to this would be alignment, and how to visualize aiming properly. I'd estimate that about 90% of beginners/slicers are aimed 10+ degrees right of their intended target, and have no idea that they're doing it. But your brain knows, and tries to pull the ball back to the target. The out-to-in path naturally occurs, as it must. This is a crucial step to curing a slice, imo. Apart from that single omission, you totally nailed it. 👌
Great point man!
next video please on how to fix a hook
How to fix a hook please
This all makes sense to me but I have been playing golf a long time and is a great explanation on how to fix the slice. I think it would be helpful to explain what impact the swing path and face angle are having on the ball. With a slice the ball spins clockwise looking down, with a draw counterclockwise (right handed player). The spin is what causes the ball to move left or right from center. Thanks for the great content Grant and GG
Steven has come so far since the OG gm golf days. It’s honestly impressive as fuck
The alignment stick drill totally helped to cure my slicing! Was so refreshing it to see it here. Awesome vid as always, boys!!
"This is the man who turned my slice into a draw" I'm. pretty sure Steve sliced every single drive in the last video😂
When I mix my closed face with the swing path.... YUGE hook. I think I may be the least consistent golfer created.
Grant I noticed I fade my long clubs and draw my short clubs. What do I do? 🤷🏻♂️
I was hitting a massive slice every shot in one of my rounds. Then, all I did was close my glove hand a tiny bit so I could see more of the logo and the very next shot was dead straight. Obviously now I’m working at a better swing path but just that slight grip change made a huge impact.
Great video! Common problem for most golfers...simple tips but very useful and educational.
Does this just apply to irons? How would you adjust for woods / driver?
Hit the simulator today, inside clubpath by 3-5 degrees, tried to have a strong grip still banana slicing it. Open club face by 2-6 degrees. Wasn’t going straight left either ( I’m a lefty ) but actually slicing. No clue
Can you make a video of how to put spin in the ball?
I have changed my swing like you show. I can hit my iron well, but I now cannot hit my hybrids and 5, W 3W. How do I set up for woods Etc
Hey Grant, would you please help me by explaining to me on the downswing, do the arms and chest move together down to and through impact or do the arms drop independently on the downswing as the chest opens at impact? I am 72 and can only get my left arm to halfway in the backswing. Thanks.
I draw all my clubs(irons,hybrids,woods,wedges), except for my driver which i slice horribly its super frustrating, if anyone has any advice i would really appreciate it🙏🏻
Use a more neutral grip, look at Rory's grip vs DJ, dj is super strong anti left while Rory has that right hand more turned over to the left covering the grip, then just release it slighty more and from the inside, not a lot just enough to turn it
I have a draw based driver with closed face. With this driver I can’t hit very good but it is very old. I got the mizuno stz driving and having major issues on closing the face. Could you do a video or someone give me tips on how to close the club face
No offence, but the first guy sounds like he’s slicing while he talks. Fix your talk slice. Slow down a bit, bud
Thanks to Grant I’m slicing the ball less and lowering my score rapidly. It’s mostly putting that ruins me
