I’ve also heard that using a heavier club can promote a better swing path. Does anyone have recommendations on which brands offer heavier options for beginners?

You might want to check out Ping! They have solid options with customizable weights. It’s worked wonders for reducing my slice.
Gear aside, practicing alignment is crucial. I’ve been trying to align my shoulders and feet more consistently, and it has helped with my slice. Anyone else notice that?

I totally agree! Having a solid pre-shot routine focusing on alignment can make a world of difference. It’s all about setting up correctly to hit that straight shot!
New here! What adjustments do you all recommend for the putterbender’s slice? I’m thinking of trying the new TaylorMade Sim2!

I’ve heard mixed reviews about the Sim2—some love it, while others still struggle. Best to try it out first if you can.
Don’t overlook the role of the ball! I switched to the Titleist Pro V1, and it seems like it delivers a better spin control, which has helped keep my ball straighter.

This has been so insightful! I’m going to explore some of these clubs and also focus on my technique. Thanks, everyone!
I’ve been working on the 1-Shot Slice Fix for a while now. One common mistake I see is not adjusting your grip correctly. It can really affect your clubface at impact!
Absolutely, tuckertina! I struggled with my grip too. I found that a slightly stronger grip made a huge difference in controlling the fade.
Another issue I’ve noticed is golfers thinking they need to swing harder. It’s more about smoothness and technique. Anyone else experienced this?
Couldn’t agree more! I used to overswing and that just made my slice worse. Focusing on a controlled swing was key for me.
Timing is crucial as well. If your backswing is rushed, you’ll lose control of your downswing. Have others had timing issues?
Exactly! I learned that the hard way. Taking my time helped me find better rhythm in my shots.
I’ve read that foot placement is often overlooked. What stance adjustments have helped you improve your shots?
For me, widening my stance helped stabilize my swing. It felt much more balanced.
Don’t forget about follow-through! Many golfers cut theirs short when applying the fix. What do you do to ensure a full follow-through?
