The Legendary Golf Instructor, Hank Haney, Who Coached Tiger Woods To 6 Major Championships, 31 PGA Tour Wins, And 9 World Golf Championships Finally Releases His… 1-Shot Slice Fix That eliminates your slice after just...

Okay, I've seen the "Fix your slice in 15 shots" thing advertised for years. But apparently we can't wait to hit 15 shots. Now Hank will fix our slice in 1 shot! 

Seriously, one shot?

I can name that song in one note! I guess the snake oil sales have been slow lately.

I think we've gotten to the point in our society where we need instant gratification. Why do I have to wait? I want it now? Do you really want me to have to hit 15 shots to fix my slice? ... Who has that kind of time? Can't I fix it in just one?

Or how about no shots like the “Think Method” from The Music Man?

Great reference. 

Yeah, my mom and dad think I'm great at golf. It's all those other golfers that are terrible.

What he isn't telling us is that his one shot cure for the slice is a snap hook. 😂

That's usually my answer. Generally on the very next tee box.

Sounds like this is a “big miss”.

The commercials are terrible and snake oil, but I found an old Golf Digest article (mid 2000's) that basically goes through his clockwise and counter clockwise practice swing method that seems to be basically what the video is. I saw people in the background of the ad doing the circular swing exercise.

Has anyone actually tried his sequence out ? Is it worth spending some time with the exercises from the free article , and obviously more than 15 shots, with?

The forward swing into the backward swing thing works because the backswing gets so across the line at the top you move the club “under” in transition.

If that can translate to your regular swing, more power to you. It doesn’t for all.

So, if I'm reading this correct. Hank gave this information away back in the early-mid 2000's. Now he's charging for it. 

That's a good catch by you. @DCCarpenter

By the way, I'm not begrudging Hank for selling his idea. If its his idea, he has every right to make money off of it. It's just interesting when you consider the timing of what Hank was up to back then compared to now. 

I do think the "1 shot" thing is at best misleading. At worse an outright lie. But that's just my opinion. 

I've always preferred the "Hey, this is going to take some work on your part to fix." I've never been a fan of "Everyone who does this becomes a tour pro with in one swing." Because what does that say about me if I can't master it right away?

Wait, I do this and become a tour pro?  Count me in!  I’ll take Phil’s spot on the PGA tour, as he doesn’t seem to want it.

So I printed out the Golf Digest article today, I am going to do the drills tomorrow and am scheduled for 18 tomorrow. I have my Arccos data for my last 3 rounds at this course and other notes so I know where I had bad drives and/or sliced.  I will carefully follow the exercise outlined and do it before each round.

I have rounds scheduled Tuesday and Wednesday as well same place. This is a short course but actually has a decent slope rating because it is very narrow with no parallel fairways and every dogleg favors a draw.

I will update back here as I go. I've been bouncing between 3 wood, even 9 wood and 3 hybrid off the tee. For these rounds I'll stick to 3 wood exclusively for every non par 3 off the tee to be consistent. I'll start clearing my calendar for next year's US Open as well as this should set me firmly on the path to qualify.

I have a better stop slicing fix.

That is the one, good to see the video. Article was pretty easy to follow but the video is even better.

    • Day 8: 12/17/2024 Okay I took my new PPJ swing thought to the range today. I wasn't sure I was quite ready to do so, but I'm glad I did.  When I got it right it was good... really good. When I got it wrong it was a major fail. I hit lots of really ugly ones. But I didn't let that deter me. I stayed committed and focused on the PPJ and I avoided any temptation to go back to what I was doing before just so that I could "look" better at the range. I'm pretty excited about what I saw when I got it right.  I hit the 6 iron mostly (nearly all block work today). I also hit about 6 balls each with the PW, 8I, 5W and Driver. Those had varying degrees of success. I did crack one drive that let me feel and see what the changes will look like once I get fully trained.  Anyway, I'm going to go back to the mirror work for a couple of more days before bringing it back to the range. I do feel like if I can get this right my swing will improve a lot. So I think its worth the effort. I liked the way it looked on GEARs when I get it right, and I like the results I got at the range when I got it right. Now the goal is to work towards getting it right more often. 
    • So I think it's that they can't just bend the shaft or hosel to get it to a new lie angle. They adjust that and it changes the weighting, so they have to then adjust all the weights to get it balanced again. I get the impression that it's a bit of an iterative process and they do it all in the US, so they're paying US labor costs to build it and make it work how it's supposed to. Whether you believe in the tech or not, I think that's a true statement.
    • Ah, the old EE in the backswing move. Chest going back and staying down doesn't help.
    • Extremely outward path with a very closed club face. Maybe unless you have a stupidly weak grip, like right hand way over top, I don't think the grip is necessary highly correlated to this.
