A slice comes from one of a few distinct causes — grip, path, or how your body sequences the downswing. Here's how to find which one is yours and fix it.
For over 25 years, the GOLFTEC Swing Evaluation set the standard for motion analysis. Now, we're taking it further. The all-new GOLFTEC Game Evaluation moves beyond the driving range to analyze your performance across every shot that matters. By combining proprietary OPTIMOTION 3D motion-capture technology with real-world simulator scenarios, we can now predict your scoring potential and rank your biggest opportunities for improvement. Leave your evaluation with a prioritized, data-backed roadmap designed to help you shave strokes off your game faster than ever.
Are you suffering from an online golf instruction epidemic? You watch the videos, take the notes, practice the drills, and somehow hit the ball worse. The problem isn’t that online tips are inherently wrong; it’s that applying them indiscriminately treats every swing flaw with the exact same broad-brush fix. Drawing from GOLFTEC's database of 14 million swings, this breakdown exposes the "scroll and try loop" that leaves amateurs confused and plateaued. Discover why even excellent advice can wreck your mechanics if it’s wrong for your specific biomechanics root cause and learn how to shift your approach from endless exploration to targeted, data-backed reinforcement.
Nobody quits golf because they want to. They quit because it hurts. If your back, hips, or shoulders are turning 18 holes into an endurance test, the problem might not be your body it might be a mismatch between the swing you learned at 30 and the body you have at 60. You don’t need a massive swing overhaul to play pain-free. By making three honest adjustments, using your knees to unlock rotation, implementing a simple 5-minute pre-round mobility routine, and matching your equipment to your current swing speed, you can stay competitive and comfortable. Learn how GOLFTEC’s OptiMotion™ data can help you identify your specific mobility limits and build a swing that works with your body, not against it.
Stop guessing why your scores aren't moving. If you’ve ever felt like your range sessions are just hit or miss, you’re missing the objective feedback your game actually needs. We’ve redesigned our entry point to focus on the full picture, looking at how you play from tee to green, not just how you move your wrists. Walk in, see the raw data on where your game stands today, and walk out with a game plan that’s built specifically for your strengths and weaknesses. It’s not just a lesson; it’s finally getting an honest look at your golf game.

The golfer in your life already has the clubs, the gadgets, and the gear. What they don't have and what every golfer at every level actually wants, is a real understanding of their own swing. GOLFTEC Father's Day packages start at $395 and give Dad a certified coach, OPTIMOTION 3D swing analysis, custom club fitting, and a personalized improvement plan. The one gift no golf store can sell him.
A slice is rarely the result of a single bad habit, it is the outcome of specific bio-mechanical breakdowns in the swing sequence. Analyzing a database of 14 million swings, GOLFTEC identifies the three primary culprits: Open Face-to-Path Relationship, Restricted Hip Rotation, and Steep Attack Angles. By addressing these core mechanics using OptiMotion™ data, golfers can move from an "Over-the-Top" move to a powerful, inside-out delivery that maximizes both distance and accuracy.
OptiMotion™ is the industry leading 3D motion-capture system that has revolutionized both golf instruction and televised golf analysis. By utilizing Markerless Motion Tracking, the system captures body movements including shoulder turn, hip tilt, and weight shift at 4,000 data points per swing. This "As Seen on TV" technology allows GOLFTEC coaches to compare a student's biomechanics directly to a database of PGA Tour averages, providing an objective, data-driven roadmap for every golfer.
Free YouTube golf tips are everywhere — but they're not built for your swing. Here's why a data-driven, guided lesson program at GOLFTEC produces results that self-guided watching never will.
Major championships like the Masters highlight the technical gap between professional execution and amateur tendencies, particularly in Short Game Precision, Vertical Launch Control, and Emotional Regulation. This guide provides 7 specific questions designed to bridge that gap during your next lesson. By focusing on metrics like "Green in Regulation (GIR) Efficiency" and "Scrambling Proxemics," students can use professional benchmarks to refine their own OptiMotion™ data and game-day strategy.
