Diagnose it first

Your slice has a cause. Find out which of the three is yours.

A slice is an open clubface. Three things decide whether that face is open, and none of them is the thing most golfers spend their money on.

30 second self diagnosis

Three questions. Then read the cause that is yours.

Question 1
Where does the ball actually go?
Question 2
Does it get worse the harder you swing?
Question 3
Have you ever changed your grip to fix it?
Grip, wrist and connection: the three TruLink trainers across a full swing

Grip, wrist and connection. Three trainers, one swing, and the three things that decide where the ball starts.

There is a moment on the first tee that every slicer knows. You are over the ball, the group is behind you, and some part of you already knows where this one is going.

Right. Always right. Into the next fairway, the trees, somebody else's round.

You say sorry before it lands. You laugh it off. You go and find it. And on the walk you are quietly working out how many more of these there are between here and the clubhouse.

Here is the part almost nobody tells beginners. That ball is not going right because you are bad at golf. It is going right because the clubface is open when it hits the ball. That is the whole slice.

And the face is open because of three things happening in your hands and arms that nobody has ever asked you to look at.

The whole slice, in one picture
TARGET OPEN FACE · SLICE
The face is open when it meets the ball, so the ball starts right and keeps bending right. That is the whole slice.

The same swing, two face angles. Right handed golfer, viewed from above.

01
Grip

Your grip has the face open before the club even moves

Your grip does not just hold the club. It sets where the face comes back to at impact.

Turn your hands too far toward the target, what golfers call a weak grip, and the club can only come back one way. Open.

Not because you did anything wrong on the way down. Because your hands were pointed there the whole time.

You will never feel this one. Your hands have always sat there. To you it feels like the only way to hold a club. It is also why grip tips from a video never stick. You move your hands, it feels strange, and by the third hole they have crept back to where they were.

TARGET LINE BALL STARTS RIGHT
Hands rotated too far toward the target. The face is open at address, so the club can only come back one way.

Where the face points at impact decides where the ball starts. Your grip decides which of these three you begin from, before the club has moved.

The fix · Cause 01

TruGrip Trainer

$29.99 on its own $49.99 · included in the bundle

  • What it is
    A moulded guide that clicks onto the grip of any club and holds a set shape for both hands. No straps, no tools, on and off in a second.
  • The fault it removes
    A weak grip. Hands rotated too far toward the target hand you a clubface that is already open at address, before the club has moved an inch.
  • Why it works
    You cannot hold it wrong. Instead of trying to remember a grip you have never felt, your hands drop into the same hold every time, so the face starts square rather than open.
  • How you use it
    First ten balls of a session with it on, then take it off and rebuild the same hold from memory. Two or three sessions and your hands stop drifting back.

A flat wrist cannot save a grip that opened the face at address.

02
Wrist · biggest single cause

Your lead wrist cups and opens the face all over again

Your lead wrist is the one on your glove hand. Left wrist if you play right handed. Through the swing it wants to bend backward. Golfers call it cupping. The palm rolls back toward the forearm, and when it does the face opens with it.

An open face at impact sends the ball right. Every time.

This is not talent and it is not athleticism. It is one joint doing the wrong thing for about a tenth of a second. Too fast to see. Too fast to feel. Flatten it and four things change at once, and you do none of them on purpose.

Cupped
Flat
Ball flight
High and spinny
Low and penetrating
Direction
Right of target
Straight at target
Distance
Short
A full club longer
Contact
Weak and glancing
Pure compression

Here is the tell. A $345 wrist sensor straps on, links to an app, and tells you your lead wrist cupped 27 degrees at the top.

Then you swing again, and it cups 27 degrees again.

FOREARM FACE OPEN · palm rolled back
The palm rolls back toward the forearm and the clubface rotates open with it. An open face at impact sends the ball right. Every time.

Lead wrist and clubface, seen from behind the golfer. Cupping the wrist rotates the face open. A flat wrist leaves it square.

The fix · Cause 02

Wrist Trainer

$29.99 on its own $49.99 · included in the bundle

  • What it is
    A rigid cradle worn over the back of your lead hand, on top of your glove, held by two adjustable straps. No battery, no app, nothing to pair.
  • The fault it removes
    Cupping. The lead wrist bends backward through the swing and rotates the clubface open with it. This is the single biggest cause of a slice, and it happens in about a tenth of a second, too fast to see or feel.
  • Why it works
    It does not remind you, it prevents you. The wrist physically cannot cup while it is on. A $345 sensor tells you the wrist cupped 27 degrees. This one means it never got there.
  • How you use it
    Twenty half swings with a seven iron, no attempt at distance. Then off, and repeat the feel. That flat wrist sensation is what you take to the first tee.

One device reports the slice. The other one removes it.

03
Path

Your arms leave your body and you swing across the ball

An open face is only half of a slice. The other half is the direction the club is traveling when it gets there.

From the top the arms lift away from the chest. The trail elbow flies. The lead arm chicken wings through impact. And now the club has no route back to the ball except across it, from outside to in.

That cut across the ball is what puts the sidespin on it. It is also why your slice gets worse the harder you swing.

This is the one that makes the other two look useless. Square the face on an outside in path and you do not hit it straight. You pull it left. Which is exactly what happens to the golfer who fixes his grip on its own. The slice becomes a snap hook, he panics, and he goes straight back to the old grip.

TARGET LINE Ball · right handed golfer, from above CUTS ACROSS THE BALL · SLICE
The arms have left the chest and the club has no route back to the ball except across it. That cut is what puts the sidespin on it.

The fix · Cause 03

TruConnect Band

$29.99 on its own $49.99 · included in the bundle

  • What it is
    An adjustable band worn over both upper arms, keeping them working with your body turn rather than independently of it.
  • The fault it removes
    The over the top move. Your arms separate from your chest, the trail elbow flies, the lead arm chicken wings, and the club has no route to the ball except across it, outside to in.
  • Why it works
    Path is the half of the slice nobody mentions. Square the face on an outside in path and you have only traded a slice for a pull. The band holds the arms connected so the club arrives from the inside, which is what turns a straightened face into a straight shot, or a small draw.
  • How you use it
    Ten minutes of slow, connected swings. Most golfers feel where the club has been coming from within the first few.

Square the face on an outside in path and you have only traded a slice for a pull.

Fix one and the slice just finds another way out

This is why the last thing you tried worked for a week and then stopped. The three faults are not a list. They are a chain, and each one drags the next.

1

Weak grip makes the wrist cup. Hands turned under the club park the lead wrist in a cupped spot before you have even taken it back.

2

A cupped wrist makes you swing left. Face wide open, so your body learns to hold off and cut across the ball just to keep it on the planet.

3

That path bakes the slice in. Now the outside in move is your swing. Fix only the face and you hit a pull. Fix only the path and you hit a bigger slice.

Three faults, fixed one at a time, is how a slice survives ten years of trying. Trained together they stop fighting each other. The grip sets the hands. The cradle holds the wrist. The band keeps the arms attached. Ten seconds each, all in the same swing.

Ten seconds each. No app, no lessons, no $345 sensor.

Here is the whole routine.

  1. 1Grip goes on the club. Hands find the same place without a thought.
  2. 2Cradle goes over your glove. Lead wrist stays flat through impact.
  3. 3Band goes round your arms. Arms stay attached to your turn.

Then you make your normal swing. Full speed, full shots. Nothing to charge, nothing to pair, no calibration before you are allowed to hit a ball.

Hackmotion does give you a bunch of data, but frankly I do not want to wrestle with the whole calibration process and dealing with an app to work on swing mechanics, not to mention the $350 plus price tag.r/whygolf

You cannot learn a feel by reading about it. You have to be put in it. Most golfers notice cleaner contact in the first session, because the three aids are doing the holding. The point of the sessions after that is that your hands stop needing them.

What golfers say

The people using it are not talking about degrees

They talk about where the ball went, and how the round felt afterward. No star average, no cherry picked screenshot. Verified buyers, in their own words.

★★★★★

Right away when I put this on I could tell it was going to isolate my wrist movement. First time using it on the range my shots were straighter and my distance was improved. I used it on the course and it was great. There was a noticeable difference in my distance and direction. If you have trouble slicing the ball or you are not getting the distance out of your irons I highly recommend this. It is not some gimmick. It really works.

Questions people ask before they buy

Do I really need all three?
You can start with one. Most slicers who only fix the wrist find the ball straightens and then drifts back, because the grip and the path are still doing what they always did. The three together is why the bundle exists.
Which one should I use first?
The Wrist Trainer. It removes the biggest single cause, and the change in ball flight is usually obvious inside one bucket. Add the grip trainer next, then the band once your hands and wrist are behaving.
Can I use them on the course?
They are training aids, so they are for the range, home practice and warm ups rather than competitive rounds. Most people run ten minutes of swings before a round, take them off, and play.
How long before I see a change?
You will feel cleaner contact in your first session, because the aids are physically holding the positions for you. The muscle memory takes a few sessions of regular use. These are training aids, not a magic wand. Anyone telling you the slice is gone forever after one bucket is selling you something.
Will they fit me?
The wrist trainer sits over a golf glove on an adjustable strap and the band stretches to fit. If you have larger hands or a thicker wrist, check the sizing on the product page before you order. If it does not fit when it arrives, send it back inside 30 days.
I am left handed.
There are left handed options on the grip and wrist trainers. Choose them at checkout. The band works either way.
What if it does not work for me?
Every order is covered by a 30 day money back guarantee. If you are not seeing results, contact us for a refund. No hoops, no hard feelings.
