slicing the driver

I have developed a slice with the driver, and began to incorporate a drill into my practice routine by setting my driver outside of my ball, and then swinging in to hit the ball. I believe that this will help eliminate the "over the top" chronic problem that I have had. Any truth to this?

in my relative newcoming to this damnable but addicting sport, i have always had an ugly slice (or maybe a push?) off the tee...non playable for that matter as it goes 90 degrees to the right after first bounce so even compensating by facing 45 degrees left is of little help (makes for ****py day of playing up the opposing fairways)...anyway, i was lamenting this fact to a friend at work who regularly shoots in the low 80's (in my dreams) and he mentioned that i should try to set my stance w/the ball at the heel of the driver ( i think this is what you are refering to) and my right foot about a half a foot length behind the left....low and behold...much of the slice disappeared from my next bucket of balls...i need to go out again and see if it is repeatable science, or just the alignment of planets that day...good luck in your search for a straighter drive...bg
