I'm so frustrated with my drives. At least 80% of them are slices.
I've tried changing my driver
ive tried changing my stance
ive tried changing my grip
ive tried changing my swing
ive tried closing the head
ive tried changing my wife
nothing f%#€$g works. Help please.
Is there something I've missed ?

A fix from the "golf doctor". See a qualified professional that you feel comfortable with and ask what you want to achieve specifically .
Good luck and tell us how you get on in the future.
Regards
Brigitte

Like many of us on here, 'seen it, been there, done it'.
Listen to Gary and Brigitte. First, just because you have a driver doesn't mean you have to use it. You could do what I did for 6 months.... Leave the driver at home and only take a 3 wood and irons. Decide in your mind before hand, that you are going to use an iron to drive, but should you get the 'a wood is going to work this time', thought, then try it. If it doesn't, we'll back to the irons. Trust the grey lump between the ears, it'll steer you in the right direction eventually.

Focus on swinging through to a finish. Let the club do the work. Try 3/4 swing and see how that goes.. Much easier to control...
A swing analysis from a trusted pro may help...
I find that if i try to hit the ball too hard it is out of control... Better to hold the pose..

Forgot to ask, slice or fade... There is a subtle difference...
