How to Fix a Slice in Golf: A Simple Drill That Works in 5 Swings

How to Fix a Slice in Golf: A Simple Drill That Works in 5 Swings - golfswingshirt.com®

Stop Slicing the Ball — Fast

Few things frustrate golfers more than a persistent slice. You line up right, aim left, and still watch your ball sail off to the trees. If that sounds like you, you’re not alone — over 70% of amateur golfers battle a slice at some point in their game.

The good news? Most slices are caused by one fundamental issue: a lack of connection between your arms and torso during the swing. And once you train that connection, the slice can disappear — often within just a few swings.

This article will show you a simple 5-swing drill that targets the root cause of your slice and helps you develop a more repeatable, square club face at impact.

 

Why Do Golfers Slice the Ball?

Before we jump into the fix, let’s break down what causes a slice:

  • An outside-in swing path (commonly called “over the top”)

  • An open clubface at impact

  • Poor arm-body synchronization

  • Casting or early extension in the downswing

All of these stem from a disconnection in your swing — when your arms separate from your torso, your swing path steepens and your clubface opens.

 

The 5-Swing “Connection Drill” That Fixes Your Slice

This drill is built around the concept of arm-body connection — a foundational move used by pros like Ben Hogan and Padraig Harrington to eliminate slices and build consistency.

Goal: Eliminate excess arm separation, shallow your swing path, and square the clubface — fast.

The Drill: 5 Connected Swings

You’ll need:

Swing 1: Feel the Connection

  • Put on your Golf Swing Shirt (or place a towel under both armpits).

  • Make 3 slow-motion practice swings without a ball.

  • Focus on keeping your arms “attached” to your torso throughout the backswing and downswing.

Feel how your arms move with your chest — not independently.

Swing 2: Half-Speed With Ball

  • Set up to a ball.

  • Make a 50% speed swing with full connection.

  • The goal: Hit it solid, even if it doesn’t go far or straight yet.

This step trains your brain to associate connection with ball-first contact.

Swing 3: Commit With Tempo

  • Take another shot at 75% speed.

  • Keep arms quiet — no throwing or slapping.

  • Focus on your body turning the club through impact.

Tip: The Golf Swing Shirt will naturally prevent casting and over-the-top moves.

Swing 4: Full Speed, Still Connected

  • Now go 90–100% effort while maintaining connection.

  • You’ll likely notice:

    • Straighter ball flight

    • More centered contact

    • Smoother tempo

Your swing path is now shallower, and your clubface is more square — key ingredients to fixing a slice.

Swing 5: Repeat and Lock It In

  • One final swing to reinforce the feel.

  • Try filming or comparing before/after contact.

Many golfers feel immediate improvement — even within these 5 reps.

 

Why the Golf Swing Shirt Makes This Drill More Effective

Without feedback, it’s hard to know if you’re staying connected. That’s why The Golf Swing Shirt is such a powerful tool — it physically guides your body into the right movement pattern.

Benefits of Using the Golf Swing Shirt:

  • Compression fit keeps arms synced to torso

  • Prevents casting and over-the-top swings

  • Improves swing path and contact in just a few reps

  • Works with every club, from driver to putter
