focus on the toss. keep it as low as possible to leave you little room for error. don't pull your swinging arm back too far also... again, leaves less room for error. hit the ball with the heel of your hand. think 'quick and accurate' while your serving. it'll help.

Woods – \nHave you tried the new Hybirds out?  If not hit a 3 and 4.  They take the place of long irons.  I think you will like it, almost everyone does.  \n\nWedges – Your wedge should be a 52 or 54 and you have the 60.  I suggest you get a 56 or 58.  Check the length, I purchased a Ben Hogan SI and it was the same length as my 9 iron, so if went just as far as the wedge.  When it comes to bounce if you 60 has a lot, do the opposite with the new one.  \nGood Luck

The long straight drive. \n\nWhy?  I'm not a pro.  I play for fun and in the occasional scramble.  \nHow do you feel walking 20 yards to whack your second shot after worm-burning your drive up to (but not past) the ladies tee?  Or how about yelling "Nooooo!" as you watch a high slice fly off into the distance O.B. and another lost ball.   Compare that to missing a 2 foot putt?  Sure, "drive for show and putt for dough" but I sure feel a lot better driving for show.  Which shot do you remember the most as you drive home... the 280 yard tee shot smoked right down the middle on the par 5 or the 20 foot luck-@ss putt?\n\nLastly, If people know you smack a consistent long-ball, you'll see plenty of best ball scramble invitations.

You need to be able to hit all the clubs.  There are plenty of golf holes that require a longer drive.  If you only drive the ball 210 yards, you will never have a chance to reach a par five in two for example.  For me, I'm most happy with a slight draw because I know that when the ball hits the ground it is going to run.  \nMaybe what you need is a new driver with a little more loft to get the ball flying through the air a little longer?  Or perhaps try teeing the Calloway up a little higher and playing it more toward your left foot?  Not sure what you are doing now but just a couple things to think about.  With a 200 yard 5-wood, you should expect more out of your driver.

Try the Tour Edge Exotics driver.  It may be expensive, but it is supposed to be one of the best drivers available.  Tour Edge clubs in general, are excellent but somewhat underrated in the US, even though word of mouth is changing this quickly.  Their fairway woods which have been out for a few years now and have achieved a reputation for being the best woods available.\n\nGive the Exotics driver a try at a range and see what you think.

The best thing would be to see a professional golfer and he can advise you on how to improve your game. Yahoo's golf tips suggests selecting a target area and focussing on that. \n\n# Stand behind your ball on the tee and pick out a 10- to 15-yard landing area, then picture an imaginary line from that spot back to your ball.\n# As you address the ball, focus on an intermediate target a few feet in front of you. Align your ball square to that point, and don't worry about hazards, distant mountains or anything else.\n# Right before you pull the trigger, take one last look at your landing area. Take a cue from the Tour players, who by this point are only thinking about getting their ball to that spot.\n# Make a confident swing, knowing that you've done what it takes to line up the shot. Practice this on the range, and you'll be ready to conquer any intimidating visual tricks.\n\nThere are also plenty of training aids available see Yahoo directory.

There is a golf ball for each type of player.  Better players want more spin and control.  Most of the better and expensive balls have this, and they usually go about the same distance off of the driver.\n\nMediocre players(like me) usually want balls with a little less spin, which promotes hooks and slices.  Also price is a big factor since most mediocre players lose some balls during play.\n\nAnd there are also balls made for people with a slower swing speed. These tend to be softer balls.\n\nAccording to tests done by Consumer Reports, best balls for low handicappers include:\n-Nike One Black\n-Callaway HX Tour\n-Titliest Pro V1 and Pro V1x\n-Ben Hogan Tour Deep\n\nMid to high handicappers include:\n-Nike Power Distance Super Soft(Ranked very high and also affordable)\n-Callaway HX Hot\n-Pinnacle Gold Distance\n-Pinnacle Exception\n\nFor Lower Swing Speeds:\n-Titleist SoLo (Which I like cause I don't really lose distance off the tee, but it is soft around the green. Also I have a normal swing speed)\n-Precept Lady\n-Pinnacle Exception\n\nI say just try different balls that you feel suits your game. It will make a difference.

You should try Luxilon Big Banger Alu Power (with or without Rough - the textured version).  It's the new craze right now and it's being used by a lot of top pros (Federer on his mains, Safin, Hewitt on his mains, Agassi, Dementieva)  It's good because it is partially made out of polyester, which is normally very durable.  Other polyesters may feel a little boardy, but this string is a bit softer as long as you follow their stringing instructions. (10 lbs. less, I believe)  It also has a lot of spin on the ball because the strings practically don't move when you hit with them.  This adds to how much you can bite into the ball to produce that spin.\nWell, hope you have fun.

Answer: Yes, it is possible to cure a slice. \n\nHow/Why?:\nSquare the clubface at address, stop swinging across the ball (that is, from out to in), and hit the ball at impact (don't try to 'hang on'). Just hit it.\n\nAvoid those 'anti-slice' golf clubs to cure a slice. It's not the club, it's the swing. \n\nThe swing plane (shaft plane) is flatter than most people realize. An upright swing (which is taught by teaching "professionals") is just wrong. Watch Vijay, Phil, Tiger, Sergio, etc. and you will see the correct swing plane.\n\nHint: Practice swinging the club very, very slowly. Hit the ball squarely and not at a glancing blow! Only then will you see and feel what you need to be doing. Gradually (very gradually) speed everything up. Eventually you will develop a feel for hitting the ball squarely. Not only will you  stop slicing, the ball will go much farther and be less affected by wind.

I'm also a 7 handicap and I would say that most players at this level play the following irons: Titleist, Cleveland, Taylor Made, Muzuno.  I would go with irons with some game improvement features, but that still allow you to work the ball. \n\nMy bag is almost exclusively Cleveland, but that is personal preference.  I'm looking for new irons and looking at the following clubs:\n\nCleveland CG4\nTitleist 804's\nTaylor Made rac OS\n\nBottom line, make sure you demo your clubs at an outdoor range.

This depends on how well you hit, as well as what lies ahead...\n\nFor instance, I use a 7 iron to hit 150 as well. Not every time, butr most of the time. However, if Im hitting up hill, I would use a 6 or 5 iron, depending upon the difference in height. Similar, in shooting downhill, I would use an 8 or 9 iron. \n\nWhen chipping, it is also important to pay attn to the lie - if youre chipping uphill, dont use a 60* wedge! It will be a 80* wedge! Instead, use your 8 iron and hit it softly - takes the extra loft off the hillside lie....\nPretty much, there should be roughly ten yards difference between clubs. I go 100 with a PW, 110 with a 9, 130 with an 8, 150 with a 7, 160 with a 6, 160 - 170 with a 5, etc. As my iron length increases, my distance drops, as I am not great with long irons... But I have this new Nike CPR rescue club - it is AWESOME! Replaces my 3 & 4 iron, and goes around 180 almost every time! 3 wood, around 200, driver around 220 - if I can keep it from slicing...\n\nFeel free to hit me up about golf anytime - IM ADDICTED!

Check you right elbow on your downswing. You could be bringing it closer to your body causing you to open the club face. I developed a simular slice a few years ago and a shoulder problem was causing me to bring my right elbow in, causing the slice. My shoulder muscles was not keeping the ball in the socket properly.\n\nA simple exercise of using a 1lb can of Veggies solved the shoulder problem. I would bend forward at the waist and extend my right arm down. Then raise the can until it was almost under my armpit.\n\nAfter solving the shoulder problem the club pro helped me stop the habit of drawing my elbow in. That low slice went away. I still slice the ball at times, but they now have some nice loft.
