To cure a slice, golfers will try almost anything. We’ve taken a long look at all the crazy devices people have put together to try to accomplish that seemingly impossible task – from pool floating devices to lip balm to a miniature helicopter-looking device, it’s all been done. But what about changing the ball itself …
In golf, the slice is probably the most infuriating of accuracy problems golfers can have.
