I use a product called the divot board that shows where your divots would be if you are hitting off a mat. It has a sequin like substance that reverses and shows a clear impression of where your club contacted the surface. You simply swipe your club across the surface in reverse to return it to a blank slate. I like the instantaneous feedback and highly visual outcome with every shot .
Says it’s name it’s not called divot board. Say it
It's funny, I was just looking up golf training aids about 20 mins before this video dropped. My favorite aid has been the Garmin R10, I can get rough numbers (range) and play more golf (sim). Playing more means I can gain more experience and make better decisions. Hitting from a perfect lie means I can improve my swing by removing inconsistencies of a course. Love the videos!
One of my favorite training aids are a short weight grip trainer with molded grip which does the same thing for learning proper grip the device you featured does but also has the advantage of being short enough to be swung anywhere in the house. Because it hangs freely without contacting the ground it made me realize that if it was gripped in the air and lowered and allowed to swing freely and find pendulum balance with gravity before swinging the swing path that resulted was also ideally balanced on the way up and back down. That gizmo also made me realize why the Vardon grip, applied properly with pad of trail hand up over lead thumb works so effectively. At the bottom of the swing it allows the hand to turn over without allowing the club force to pull it outward away from the body like an under-handed grip with trail hand or hands placed too far apart does.
The second most helpful training aid was a set of 1970s blade irons I found at a thrift and re-gripped. They where the most unforgiving of the various sets I played over nearly 40 years but if your goal is identifying and correcting swing faults instead of putting a “tech band-aid” over them they are the ideal tool for the job. I started with just the 7 iron on the range with the swing drill Hogan suggested in Five Lessons, learning to hit straight with 1/4 shots then gradually increasing the swing arc and swing force. That drill made me realize as I increased the swing arc the force was pulling me on my toes at impact due to my poor posture and that pulled club head outside target line leading to a reflexive attempt to square the face back to target and slice spin on the ball. The fact the club had such a low MOI and small ‘forgiving’ sweet spot made any swing error obvious.
The third is an old tire like an impact bean bag. Henry Cotton is credited with that idea which I read about in George Peper’s book ‘The Secret of Golf’ which reprinted an excerpt from Cotton’s book ‘Thanks for the Game’. It works best with a small tire like from a golf cart. It helped me groove the feeling of hitting down on the ball instead of trying to sweep it up.
Of course the best training aid was my public library where I found dozens of good golf instruction books. The advantage of books vs. ‘cherry picking’ information off the Internet is that it puts the advice into a logical progressive framework. The first books I read in the 1980s were by Nicklaus, Palmer and Tom Watson. Before cell phones with browsers when shopping with the wife at the mall I’d head for the bookstore bargain rack looking for golf books, by one and read it cover to cover while waiting. I discovered Steve Bann’s ‘Simply Golf’ and Hank Johnson’s ‘Winning the Three Games of Golf: Swing, Stoke, Score that way.
What an amazing comment thanks
Commenting so I can find this later
My favorite training aid has been the Lag Shot club. It has really helped get me learning synchronicity in the swing. I also use alignment sticks and a towel a lot on the range, to work alignment and swing path (towel set up to target next to ball). All these you mentioned are great - gonna look at them. BUT, nothing beats a professional coach and lessons.
Lag shot is legit. Really helps me calibrate my tempo
My favorite training aid is your teaching videos. Overall, that is the best resource for me. I am a visual learner and I like the personal connection with visual communication and the opportunity to interact via comments, questions and responses. Thanks for all of you help.
Message of prize is a scam
I’m brand new at golf. I’ve played many sports as a young woman but never golf. Now I’m just beginning and I’m 62! So I’ve not tried any of the golf aides you’ve mentioned, but what has helped me most is the “Y”. I’ve practiced practiced practiced keeping my arms in this position (rather than trying to kill the ball). I also have practiced keeping my head down. I thought about using duck tape to help but…lol. The key word too is to practice as often as I can! Now I’m swinging like I know what I’m doing. Sure. I completely miss the ball sometimes but I’m trying. Now I’m interested in moving on to the aides you’ve suggested!! Thanks for a great video!
My favorite training aid is all of them. I need a lot of help and I give all of them a go to see if I feel like they will help me improve. I'm really focusing a lot on putting at the moment so the putting mirror is my go to currently.
Interesting Mark. My fave training aid is my pair of alignment sticks (as they're all I can afford 🙂), I use them for aligning (naturally), but also for swing plane and body movement/rotation etc.
And if you want to save some money on those, hit up your local hardware store and find the orange reflective rods. $3 each vs. $15-20 for a pair of golf-specific alignment sticks.
@@JasonShiplett yes or go to bunnings and buy 2 pieces of dowel for $3 paint orange, they work same a $35 one from pro shop.
I have used the Ledbetter swing setter for over 20 plus years. Helps me warm up before round and help remind me the tempo I need for my swing
I suffered from terrible slice with my driver and corrected it with a strong grip and swinging in to out… trouble is that crept in to my irons game and with offset game improvement irons resulted in a terrible hook. The grip training aid has been a god send and, like you say mark, has allowed me to not only practice with correct grip at the range, but also play practice rounds at the course. I then had the benefit of seeing actual results in a course setting. Old habits are hard to kick so I keep a club with the grip aid next to my work desk and pick it up every now and again to register the correct grip - it’s working so far!
Offer of prize is a scam
My favourite aid has been a putting mat in my office. It means I've been able to practice my putting throughout the year when stuck on boring calls. Specifically though it has a measuring grid on one of the lines, so I have been drilling into my putting a back stroke of x cm = a putt of y distance. It's really helped me with my putting consistency.
what mat are you using please?
The stack system is definitely my favorite training aid. I have been using it for the last 18 months and have jumped in driver club head speed from 112mph to 123mph average (per Trackman). Ball speed is now consistently in the low to mid 180’s with a max of 190mph ball. Intelligently designed and provides loads of feedback within the app. In my opinion, this speed system is a notch better than SuperSpeed. Cheers, Mark. 👍🙏🙏💪💪💪🙌🙌🙌🔥🔥🔥🔥
This device brought me down from a 35 handicap to a 24 handicap this year by helping me in not only my swing speed but even gave me an understanding of how to shift my weight to produce more speed with my swing. Love the stack system.
Agree the stack system is great. Far superior to other speed training systems that I have used. It’s addictive and fun
Lol … so now you have some of the fastest ball speeds on the planet lol lol
You don’t know me from a hole in the wall… you can always come and find out first hand… hater
@@Uberican718 did you have to buy the radar to get your speed?
My favorite training aid is a yard stick that I use to putt down. Requires near perfection to get to ball starting and staying on line
Great material as always. My favourite is my putting mirror, it was cheap but I use it and it helps.
Hi Mark years of following you great content and honesty! My best value and ease of use aid is the “tour striker smart ball”. As with yourself he brought content,aids to the normal player! Normal meaning, someone who wants to enjoy their golf but may not have time to play/ practice everyday! I love to watch old content, Martin Chuck and yourself have come so far yet you both were great prior to the “bells and whistles”, so many teachers/content TH-camrs need ! Keep evolving but, well done for keeping it real.
I own most of them. Best in the end was putt out device to return device and my prgr. Although prgr is not training device but it gave me feed back that forced me to look at mechanics and make real changes in my swing. The prgr with speedsticks is changing my game. Once you see your actual speed you realize you have to make changes to get 100 or 110. I spent years thinking I was one swing thought away from 300 yards. I needed to change my swing from ground up. Speed training is so essential! Cures slices, path, early extension..etc.
Offer of a prize is a scam
Mark, being a golf geek ARCCOS is my favorite "training aid" it goes with me every round and lets me know what goes well and what goes poorly. I can use that information to work on the things that need improvement. I have used it to work on putting and approaches. After seeing my data I started doing iron only work on the course and have scored my 3 lowest scores and best overall handicap. The two best things I like about it is that it doesn't allow me to "fool" myself in believing that I am doing something that I am not at the same time it works when I need it most ON THE COURSE.
Be careful. I think the mark telegram thing could be a scam.
@@jonzuccala9704 They always are!! Thanx for the heads up!!
Putt out putting trainer and putt out putting mat. Has helped me improve my putting from 6' and in. Makes putting practice easy from home because I live 30mins from my golf club. Far more likely to do some practice at home. Best birthday present from my better half!
My favourite is my Swingyde. Has made such a difference to me!
Great video Mark. I brought the putting mirror 🪞 3 months back and use it in the office and before I play a round. Also have a weighted swing aid which has the grip trainer and last of all I brought an R10 last month take this to the range and in my Appartment block there is 2 golf nets which I use 2 time a week. Played golf from the age of 8 and stopped at 28 when I was transferred to China with my company at that time there was no golf ⛳️ so I stopped for 30 years. For the last year I can’t get enough of the game.
Don’t reply, it’s a scam for shipping
Thanks 🙏
I have the swingyde and it has totally transformed my iron striking. My course has a very short practice area so I attach it to my 8 iron and then hit alternate shots with the 8 iron with the swingyde on and my 9 iron without it so that I can quickly translate the feel that I need when it isn’t attached.
It’s a scam, that’s not Mark.
I just bought the R10 through your shop, have to say it's the best thing I've ever bought in terms of telling me my path and being able to know what I'm actually doing from swing to swing is a huge benefit. Hopefully now win that book to get some reading behind it all.
I have the little ball that you hold between your forearms, a no name brand for less than 10 us. That was and is a GAME CHANGER to teach connection! I also have the Orange Whip that I bought at a yard sale for 10 us too. It’s definitely helped me gain lots of distance!
My favourite training aid is the grip alignment. I've a strong grip and battled with it for years and as you say with lessons from a Pro to refine/readjust this, but ended up sneaking back to my 'natural' feel. Using this on the range and in lessons helped me to fight my demons and overtime has helped and readjusted my hand positions. It was not easy but did work eventually. I now want the ball!! Cheers Mark.
Prize offer is a scam
Which one did you get Jez?
I got the Tour Striker Planemate when I started golf two years ago and it made me understand from the beginning that the golfswing is a bodyswing and not an armstrike. In my first year of golfing I had so many experienced golfers tell me I had a good swing, and some of them even wanted to know who was my Pro who tought me the swing. The Planemate is a fantstic learning aid if you want to learn how to swing a golf club as a beginner.
Do not reply to prize message . It is a scam
thanks Mark. I m a coach and I use them all except fot the stack... my favorite is the Tour Striker ball, for short and long game too
Since I started getting into golf my first aid I bought was the SwingGyde that helps me a lot on understanding the clubs and the swing , one year later and I still use it at the range , awesome video !!
Prize offer / shipping fees is a scam
@@aland1025 I can tell , thank you for the warning 🙏🏻
Just saw this video for the first time and subscribed. At 57years old gaining and NOT losing speed has recently become my number one focus. But of course the first thing i ordered was the PUtting mirror cuz we cant forget about short game. Do you have any videos on how to go about getting fit for irons. My issue is that i just struggle to trust anyone with accurate and honest guidance. Thanks for all your work
My latest training aid purchase is the Precision Impact Training aid as a high school golf coach. I and my players always have trouble with hitting fat shots or thin shots that ruin a good round or practice session at the range. The Precision Impact Training aid forces the wrists into the right impact position and encourages the right body rotation. Will have to find my smart ball after seeing it wound up as one of your top 5. Main thing I didn't like about it was having to carry a mini air pump around to inflate it. I purchased another foam ball with indentures for your arms that works great for keeping your arms connected. The Dave Pelz putting aid is probably my favorite as it gives you feedback for ensuring your eyes are over the ball and metal balls to use as gates to ensure you're path is great. Have the swing guide, but never found it provided me any improvement. Just annoying to put on and use.
I have just returned to golf after 20 years. No retired I am trying to get back near to my previous 11 Handicap. I have a SKLZ Tempo and Grip Golf Trainer which I have found useful in aiding grip and also to strengthen my forearms. Really like the look of the Stacks system. Thanks for all yo videos, they’re great. Mark, Scotland
I like the smart ball training aid. My swing coach had me use the smart ball to improve my body movements during my swing . That helped me to utilize my body more in my swing.
I love the Blast Motion system for putting.
Yes the setup it confusing as there is no manual but after setup it work fantastic.
Favorite training aid I should look into is that Puttout putting mirror. My 10+ footers are seriously lacking and costing me way too many strokes. I should look into that. Thanks Mark.
You won't be disappointed 🙂
I have used the whippy tempo master for years. It does so many things for your swing. Also, I have the medicus, I don't hit balls with these clubs often, The medicus is great for positions in the swing, plane, and top of swing. I found David Ledbetters' Right Angle us stellar for the top of the backswing positions, and people that overswing back, and a broken down left arm, which will make sequencing much more difficult. Half swings with a towel held tight under your arm pits.
My favourite training aid is my Puttout pressure putt trainer, has improved my 2-6 ft putting no end! I also practice at a Toptracer range, limited in the data it provides regarding clubface and path, but does give an idea of dispersion etc with clubs, useful for club gapping etc.
Hey Mark; at the risk of sounding like a brown-noser...you and your videos are currently my favorite training aide! I am back to golf from a very long absence and find your videos clear with tangible tips to use. Love your sense of humor as well!
I was literally going to say the same thing 😂
Awesome video. Clear. Simple. And I trust you
You make this comment from under his desk, bucko??
Tried a few, most for my daughter 8 years like the grip trainer, swing plane trainer, sKLZ accelerator and Putt out. But the best aids have been alignment sticks and Shotscope V3 and stats.
Great stuff Midhc!
Prize offer of clubs etc is a scam . Will be asked to pay shipping and not receive clubs. Will not be able to reclaim money as pay via family and friends via PayPal etc. It is a scam for your money
Thanks Mark, I have a putting mat and just purchased a smart ball and was wondering how to use it correctly. Hence I came across your video which I found very informative. I will check out the other tools in due course.
Regards
Ross
For years I have used the Momentus during the winter. The last few years I have added the orange whip. Good combo.
Offer of a prize/shipping fee is a scam for your money
I've been using the Smart Ball, grip guide, and Swinglyde and I've improved immensely in the last. Haven't tried a putting aid yet. I am really interested in The Stack System because I'm not satisfied with my clubhead speed. Thanks for the video!
Out of the millions of training aides thanks for listing these 5. The Puttout mirror is a for sure buy and the Smart Ball is a must investigate for now. It’s crazy how many “gizmos” are out there.
Prize/ shipping fee is a scam
The stack number 5 i love all of them honestly im new and im excited to start learning how to golf I've always wanted to thanks for your 5 tips definitely helpful
I’m a fan of the Swingyde. Had it for a couple of years and use it whenever I need a ‘reset’!. Cool vid Sir and I might just shell out for the SmartBall thing!
Just bought the swingyde and the orange whip trainer but the one in the bag that I ignore is the grip aide it's amazing how you think you have nailed your grip but put it back on your club and instantly feel that your grip was wrong all the time
Great video again Mark. I like the ball between the arms for short game finesse. Have ever combined two training aids at once or do you think that is overkill?? Thanks
Thanks for the reviews Mark. I have a swing speed trainer, but no where near as much informed feedback as your “Stack” system described. I also have used the guide ball to make huge improvements in my short game. This was informative and helpful. Cheers!
Great video Mark, I had heard that Fitzy had been doing speed training, was curious what he was using. One of the most useful training aids I’ve ever used is Dr. Wiren’s Impact Bag. It turns your swing into a “set it and forget it” level of muscle memory in terms of where you should be at impact. Really nice trainer to have in your arsenal.
My best training aid is the Peltz Putting Tutor. Has had it for 15 years and it still works as a charm.
Good evening Mark, 2 weeks ago i purchased the deWiz wrist training aid and already i can see a difference in my tempo and control, once again a really enjoyable video, keep up the good work, Darran
Prize / shipping fee is a scam
A large mirror, thats the only aid I've used. Helps me visualize postions (staking in the trurn, hand positin etc). Cheers !
I love the smart ball wouldn't mind one of them and only other training aid i use is alignment sticks for direction or putting 🏌♂️🙂👍well done mark 👏
I use both the Tour Striker Ball and the Lag Shot 7 iron. Love them both!
My favorite is the Callaway arm band, it keeps your elbows together similar to the tour striker ball. Great for short game shots as you mentioned.
Puttout training mirror + pair of tees. Used on the putting green to give confirmation if you are putting on your intended line, love using this before a comp
Offer of prize is a scam
Interesting Mark, thanks. My current favourite is an Orange Whip swing tempo trainer. Great, as well as it's normal uses, for a quick warm up before a round.
Prize message is a scam
Probably too late to get a free book, Mark, but my favorite training aid the past year or so has been the Lag Shot. Really gives me a great feel to the swing and hits the ball well. You didn't ask, but others I've found that had some benefit were the Orange Whip (before I got the Lag Shot); the Tour Striker 8-iron, which really taught me to get my hands in a better position for the iron strike; and Pelz's mirror thing for putting, I forget if it has a specific name, but it's like a larger version of what you have here. Thanks for all you provide!
Good ideas and I might just have to get the book myself if I don't win! My favorite training aid, and the one that's been most effective for me, is the Puttout. I've had the actual Puttout since it came out and just recently got the mat to go with it. Working from home, I have it set up beside my desk in my office and am able to take 5-10 minute breaks to putt throughout the day. I've seen big gains in my putting and comfort on the green (primarily in pace) and my 2-year-old also loves trying to putt it to the ramp. Highly recommend for absolutely every golfer out there.
Oh yeah 👊
Prize offer / shipping fees is a scam
@@aland1025 yeah, I already reported
So far my best "training Aid" has been the Flightscope Mevo+. It has helped me see more clearly what I'm doing and how to practice more effectively by having metrics and slow-motions videos integrated into one complete package to help me review changes over time. I have a cheap knock off of the smart ball that I never used much but I'll try it for my pitching for sure as it's dire need of work.
Prize message is a scam
I saw a player at The Open on the range using a Smart Ball, which was interesting. It's actually great to get a professional opinion on this gear. There'd have to be more training gadgets for golf, than any other sport! I'll be getting a Smart Ball and putting mirror. Thanks Mark 👍
Martin kaymer used it but had a tennis ball instead 😱😱😱 also seen Justin Rose use it
I love my impact mat! I don't do full swings, only quarter to half, but that has helped me tremendously on my low control. Plus I can do this at home with instant feedback.
Small drills trickle up to fuller swings.
That’s a scam
My favourite is definitely the Swingyde which I bought in South Africa 10 years ago, and brought to the UK when we immigrated here, thanks for the video Mark, very useful info.👍👍👍
Love the Puttout mirror, really help to groove the stroke for those 4'-5' knee tremblers!
Prize / shipping fee is a scam for your money
Best aid on the range for me is the swing caddie SC 300. Provides some numbers to match the feel of the swing and strike with stats of all the sessions to track and compare. Cost effective and pocket sized and doesn't require the smart phone but can be linked up for more features.
Offer of a prize is a scam
Never really used training aids before bit I did get given one that is a whistle that clips onto your shaft so you can better hear when your peek speed is.
The big putt out mirror with the walls and the start line gate on a putt out mat. Gets me dialled in the night before a comp!
My favourite aid is a set of homemade speed sticks. Don't know if they're as effective as the originals, but I'm seeing some gains.
Enjoyed this vid. Great to hear some of your recommendations on a marketplace that's overflowing with gimmicks and rubbish.
Hey Mark, love the videos. I bought a Swingyde a while ago as I was struggling with my wrist position with irons and driver, it sorted it out in a few days of short practice with it, love it and use it regularly to keep my swing and wrist positions working. Totally fixed my driver slice.
That’s a scam
In what way is it a scam? Have you watched the video this is related to?
I had great success with Swingyde for my irons but couldn't get it to work so well with my driver, I'll definitely give it another go with driver seeign as you have got it to work. Did you set it up exactly the same?
Shipping Scam . the offer of a prize of clubs then someone printing to be Mark , asks for funds for shipping . Not talking about the training products being a scam
I have been using Zen - Golf infinity training system.
Mark, just watching you demonstrate how to use the swing glyde has helped me tremendously. Getting to the desired position at the top make the downswing much much powerful. Thanks!
Prize / shipping fee is a scam for your money
The Swing Woosh. I bought to help work on swing speed as a cheaper option. It has helped but I have recently ordered The Stack System too for further growth potential. Swing Woosh is also good as a warm up tool for me pre-round to get me ready to swing my driver with some good speed right off the first tee box instead of needing a couple holes to get warm.
My favourite training aid has to be the speed sticks (of any brand, stack or others... mine is a superspeed set). Undoubtedly working. And great for fitness too. I've gained about 1 and a half club overall and my back and core have clearly strengthened. Now my elbows are often on the verge of getting tendinitis, which is understandable as I'm swinging the speed sticks every other day and playing 9 to 18 holes about 4 times a week when work's not too hectic. Tried the swingyde and the training grips but they're not too useful for me as I'm fairly neutral and they don't "challenge" me at all.
Prize message is a scam
I like alignment stick. I have a couple of cheap dowels which I use for alignment and making sure my hip rotation is good. I also use them to groove a straight putter path.
My favourite is my PuttOut. Such a simple aid. Use it at home and on the putting green.
Thanks for your comment Callum! 🙂
I use snow markers I purchased at the Home Depot for alignment sticks. I use a rolled up towel under my armpits to keep my arms together.
I have been golfing for 2 years now. I have found that putting and chipping is where it is at to lose strokes. I have been using the Putt-Out mirror with the putting mat and been successful with its training aid in pace, where the ball gets stalled at the cup when you hit the correct speed. That has helped a bunch . And for chipping, just the simple towel under the arm has helped with the connectivity of my arms to my body. I have yet to purchase or try other training aids.
Offer of a prize is a scam
My favourite is TrackMan. My local range has one in every bay, so I get to use one a couple of times a week. It has helped me recently totally improve my distance control on partial shots , and helped me analyse the comparative weaknesses I have. My next aid is going to be one of the speed training aids- saving up to give the money to my wife so she can get it for my Christmas!
Offer of prize is a scam
New training aid for me - ProStroke putting. It's sort of a grip guide but helps with keeping putter in line with forearms and taking out wrist movement in stroke. Use it at home to develop a feel. Pop it in the bag to use before a round to reinforce the 'feel'.. helped me get much more consistent strike on putts.
Prize message is a scam
My favorite training aid was the first one I ever used about 25yrs ago. It was a plastic golf ball connected to a string and you would stake it into the ground and the ball would hang over the ground just a little bit and when you hit it the ball would spin in a circle and if the circle was at an angle then you knew you didn’t hit it square. If you hit it square it would spin directly straight over the top of the pole. It’s hard to explain. Maybe it wasn’t even that good. Maybe it was just because that was the first summer my grandad taught me the game he loved so much. I was 12 and still remember those times. He was an awesome guy.

The yellow aid which I brought last year I found it very useful keeping my wrist the same on all my swings👍
My favorite training aid is an Orange whip and also alignment sticks.
Cheers for the video mate!
Offer of a prize is a scam
Towel under the arms has always been my fave to keep connected or get connected again and even better it’s free!
Prize offer - scam
My favorite and only training aid at the minute is the Perfect Putting Mat. I have it rolled out in our family room and it is so great because it makes it so easy to roll a few putts everyday and really keep my flat stick sharp.
Do not reply . It is a scam
I’ve got 4 out of 5 of these and still play off 24 CHP 😂 … Seriously, they are all really good, but YOU HAVE TO USE THEM REGULARLY AS PART OF YOUR PRACTICE … something I have recently started to do in a structured way and am now really starting to see the benefits 😊
Thank you for this video Mark. I don't have the Smart Ball yet but used my imagination to feel like I had one on the course today. My chips were crisp and high with a good amount of spin. Saved me several strokes.
Prize offer is a scam
My favourite training aid is a three foot metal ruler. I putt 10 balls down it, and carry on until I get all 10 off the end. If I fail I start another round of 10. It’s tougher than it sounds, but it’s a great aid for direction.
Loved this tips video Mark, thank you very much.
Kind new to the game trying to find training aids to help for beginners have a grip training stick was looking into swing caddie kinda spendy so looking into what will work best for me
The putting mirror has helped me so much
I am an orange whip fan, great for tempo and warming up, especially for a golf course that doesn’t have a driving!
Offer of a prize is a scam
Have had a SwingGyde for years and is still used on a regular basis.
I've been using PuttOut training aids since they first came out and highly recommend them. Pressure putt is great as it can be used indoors or out.
I love my Putt Out putting aid. Plus I have used Longshot Impact Tape forever. I'd good to see exactly where you are making contact with club.
The simple putting mat from Putt Out. Gives me practice getting a line and distance.
My best training aid is my 7 foot putting mat that I can use to reset my stroke when it goes off. Great for distance control on short puts.
The smart ball looks interesting, thanks for the review and your thoughts on these training aids.
I invested in the Martin Chuck smart ball a few years ago and reckon it is the best aid for short game training
Interesting insights, Mark. I don't spend a lot on training (I really should spend more on lessons!) but for my putting, I've conjured up a very cheap set of gates using right-angle steel corner brackets you'd find in a DIY store. Secured with tee pegs in the ground, they offer a very simple and very cheap gate to help keep that putter on track.
Hi Mark, I use the swingyde and the clip on hand grip in combination at the same time, great to get correct grip position and then correct take away and follow through. Use a few times a week to build up the feel and muscle memory 👍
Offer of a prize/ shipping fee is a scam
Favourite training aid is Puttout putting mirror. That is if I exclude the QC Quad and camera system at the indoor golf centre that I'm a member of.
I really want to try the stack. I just got the planemate 2.0 and it has helped my body learn how to use the hips and be more on plane.
I have 2. The good old alignment sticks for a number of drills and the original Putt Out. Mark, I thinks those shots you were hitting where straighter than a laser. What's your thoughts on those flexi clubs that they advertise for tempo training.
Yaaasss for the OG PuttOUT 🙂
