Does anyone else have their own temporary swing fix? I find that when my slice gets bad off the tee in the middle of the round, mostly with my driver, I can drop my right foot back a good amount and sometimes it actually helps until I can finish the round and get to the range. So does anyone else have a swing band-aid?

Off the tee, I either slow my speed down and/or reduce my backswing.

I don't know if this is a good thing or bad, but my fix is to slightly angle by club head a little bit away from the direction I am slicing. Sometimes it works, sometimes it does not.

when my chipping gets out of control(usually shanks or pushes)...
ill shut the face down on my wedges and use a putting stroke at various speeds...

if my driver isnt working... my only swing fix is my 3w...

when my putter isnt working... ill shove my elbows into my stomach and make my putter into a makeshift belly putter

My general fix is to try to kill the ball if my swing is out of whack and then lower it from there. Seems counter-intuitive, but when I try to kill it my shoulder turn, hip turn, and release are all timed well, so it actually helps me gather my swing. Also, the "kill" swing exaggerates many of my common problems such as overactive wrists and an incomplete finish, maing the flaws to find and eliminate. If this solution fails I resort to throwing my clubs into lakes. If my clubs are at the bottom of a lake, I can't hit them poorly.
