Training Aids - What's Hot and What's Not?
We get many requests from our customers asking
us to recommend the best golf training aid
on the market. It is understandable that there
is confusion out there simply due to the sheer
volume of golf training aids being sold.
The best advice we can give on this topic
is to start off with a very simple question.
Do the pros
use this training aid?
|
|
If
the answer is "no" then you
need to be very skeptical.
|
|
|
The
reality is that the devices that the world's
leading golf coaches use to train their
charges are exactly the same training
aids that YOU should be using to improve
your swing. |
|
|
There
is no difference. These top PGA Tour Players
focus on the basic movement of the golf
swing just like you should. The fundamentals
of golf don't change. |
|
|
If
it is good enough for the pros it is good
enough for you. Elite golfers do not
waste their time on gimmicks and nor should
you. |
So,
which training aids do the Pros use?
According
to Steve Bann, coach to Stuart Appleby, there
are three core golf training aids that he
uses with all his players in the area of golf
strength training (a key area for the Tour
players)
|
|
The
LeaderBoard - perhaps
the hottest golf training aid on the market
today. Focuses on core strength training.
|
|
|
The
SpeedStick - a great
device for improving clubhead speed |
|
|
The
Club Kite - an ingenious
but simple little golf training aid that
works great in combination with both the
LeaderBoard and the SpeedStick to build
power into the golf swing |
So there you have it. These training aids
are actually used by the Touring Pros. They
are not gimmicks. They are proven weapons
used by the players, to increase power and
hone their skills, before they hit the fairways
of Augusta or Oakmont.
