re: What was the key to fixing your driver slice when you started golfing?

An honest 94 is probably better than 75-80% of most weekend hackers, so don't be discouraged.
I've dealt with a slice since I started playing at age 16, and switching to a 10 finger grip on my woods a few years ago changed it to more of a fade than a slice.
I've been working and playing with my brother in law, who was a college golfer and can absolutely hammer the ball (he drove Carter #1 pin high at 327 yards last weekend and had a six foot putt for eagle). What he's taught me is that your feet should aim where you want the ball to start, and your shoulders and club face should align with where you want the ball to finish. For years I've always manipulated the club face to force draws & fades, and that shite is feast or famine. So far it's working, and I'm generally able to hit fades and draws based on whatever the hole calls for
