How to Fix Your Slice
For Good
If you’re an Austin golfer searching for ways to fix your slice, you’re not alone. It’s one of the most common issues we see at ATX Golf Performance—and one of the most frustrating for players at all levels. But here’s the truth: fixing your slice isn’t just about grip and clubface. It’s about understanding your swing pattern, your body’s movement habits, and how to retrain them with precision.
What Causes a Slice?
A slice typically results from an open clubface at impact combined with an outside-in swing path. This can be triggered by:
A weak grip
Poor posture or alignment
Lack of body rotation
Overactive arms or hands
But most instruction stops there. At ATX Golf Performance, we go deeper—into biomechanics, nervous system integration, and motor pattern retraining to make your fix stick.
Our Process for Fixing Your Slice
Detailed Assessment
We use video analysis, 3D motion capture, and pressure plate technology to identify the true root cause of your slice. This isn't guesswork—it's data-backed insight.Movement Pattern Rebuild
Often, the slice is a compensation for a movement dysfunction. We address the mobility, sequencing, or balance issues driving that faulty pattern, using a blend of skill drills and somatic feedback.Reprogramming Through Repetition
Fixing a slice means building new neural pathways. That’s why we prescribe high-quality, intentional reps that help embed the correct swing motion—not just during the lesson, but in how you practice.Mind-Body Connection Work
Many slicers get stuck in overcorrection mode—thinking their way into tension. We teach players how to ground their body, quiet mental chatter, and build felt-sense awareness that leads to lasting change.
Common Mistakes Golfers Make When Fixing a Slice
Overcorrecting with the hands, leading to pulls or hooks
Ignoring body alignment and foot pressure
Practicing the same flawed swing without feedback
Getting overwhelmed by swing thoughts instead of focusing on feel
Why This Matters
A consistent, controlled ball flight unlocks the rest of your game. You can start attacking pins, hitting more fairways, and playing with confidence. Our golfers don’t just fix their slice—they transform their entire approach.
