A traditional slice, which 90% of all golfers have, comes from a swing path that is out to in (in baseball parlance for a righty, swinging to left field) with an open clubface.
A push-slice comes from an inside-to-out path.
Both are compensations due to errors earlier in the swing, but a push slice can be fixed with a better release. Most golfers are terrified of actually releasing the clubhead, IMO due to the nature of short game instruction, which too often promotes a block release.

Push-slice. I've worked on my club path as I did have what you'd call a traditional slice ( years of playing baseball and softball will do that
). My ball flight usually starts straight or to the right and way high.
