HOW WE TEST

For our 2022 driver test, over the course of more than 400 individual sessions. 35 golfers tested 38 different driver models. Data was collected using Foresight GCQuad Launch monitors. To minimize variables, all testers hit Titleist Pro V1 golf balls. Outliers were removed and data was aggregated before scores were calculated.

Looking for the best driver for a slice?

The slice is the bane of mid-to-high handicap golfers everywhere. Whether caused by face angle, swing path, strike location, or some combination of them, watching the ball sail off the intended targeted line off the tee is one of the more frustrating golf experiences.

While no piece of equipment can completely eliminate the slice, modern drivers are designed explicitly with intelligent features to help tame that shot and keep it in play more often. Let’s look at some of the best options available.

Data was collected from the 2022 Most Wanted Driver Test. We then analyze the data to find the best drivers for a slice. We spent nearly three months collecting data on more than 18,000 golf shots to help you find the best driver for your game.

If you are in the market for the best driver for a slice, this test is for you.

1. PING G425 SFT

Too many golfers are familiar with a slice. It is a distance killer. However, PING continues to defy the odds. PING G425 SFT was once again, the most left sided bias club in our test. If you are looking for a product to potentially limit your slice, the SFT is the way to go. SFT stands for “Straight Flight Technology” and the head has some sneaky draw-bias engineered into it without being obvious. This includes a fixed 23-gram tungsten weight shifts the CG closer to the heel. The Ping G425 SFT is the best driver for a slice.

2. COBRA AIR-X

Made for the “slower swinging” golfer, the Cobra AIR-X provides a lightweight construction that benefits those looking for a more draw-biased performance. Throughout Most Wanted Testing this year, COBRA offered forgiveness for those who needed it. The most significant contribution comes from a new thin-ply carbon crown construction (8 grams lighter than the F-MAX). With its increase in offset, and ULTRALITE shaft the AIR-X is something to consider when attempting to knock down your slice.

3. TITLEIST TSi1

Fighting a slice is great, but if overcorrected, it could result in a hook. The Titleist TSi 1 year over year has proven to be one of the best options for golfers who find the right side of the fairway more than they’d like. With 8-grams taken out of the head, MOI for the TSi is far from maxed out on this model, but according to Titleist, it’s on par for those in need of correction. Together with design and performance, you have a great-looking club and one of the best drivers for a slice.

4. CLEVELAND LAUNCHER XL LITE

Shaving roughly 12 grams off the standard XL, the Cleveland Launcher XL Lite ranks in the Top 5 for Slice Correction. Additionally, there is a custom option featuring a one-inch shorter shaft and no counterbalancing which can offer more control. A game improvement driver designed for to help slower to mid swing speed players keep in in play and a little further down the fairway.

5. TOUR EDGE EXOTICS E722

While you can definitely slice the ball regardless of how fast you swing, the mishit tends to be more common with moderate swing speeds. If you’re looking for a small dose of correction off the tee, the Tour Edge Exotics E722 provides forgiveness and draw-biased performance, ranking it No. 5 for Best Drivers for a Slice. The Diamond Face VFT is Tour Edge’s approach to maintaining speed on off-center hits. Don’t count this out for your next fitting experience.
