Golf
Swing Aids Aren’t Effective If…

Golf
swing aids are rampant! Every golfer
has dozens of them gathering dust in
their garages or closets. How many
wives have threatened a “clearing
out” of these contraptions? If you
are feeling me…keep reading.
Have you purchased golf swing aids
only to use them once or twice and not
see improvement? Isn’t this an
everyday occurrence for golfers? I see
and hear this all the time, and yet
golfers will continue to spend
hundreds of dollars by the
‘latest/greatest’ gimmick.
I don’t know if they (golfers) think
they will find the “one” training
aid that will change their game
forever; or they are just trying to
take the easy way out?
Either way, the main reason most golf
swing aids don’t help is because you
are not working on what’s causing
your swing faults. You! Your machine
(body) dictates your outcome!
There’s no way around it!
What your body is capable of in that
moment is the result you’ll get.
How many times have you wished you
could make a bigger backswing but
can’t? How often do you walk off the
course with a sore back? How many
times did you have a good front nine
only to blow up on the back nine and
shoot your normal score?
The above results were because of the
“physical” issues within your
body. Until you realize this and take
a different approach to your golf
improvement program, you’ll be a
frustrated golfer for a long time.
In my opinion, there are a couple of
golf swing aids that are effective
when you incorporate them with your
new golf training program. One is the
medicus. This is a fantastic golf
swing aid that gives you instant
feedback. Swing it too fast or out of
plane and the shaft breaks at the
hinge.
Another golf swing aid I like is the
weighted golf club. I swing mine
everyday and boy does it loosen me up
and strengthen my golf swing muscles.
Other than the above golf swing aids,
there are dozens and dozens of ones
that are a total waste of money. Save
your money and work on you! The sooner
you do, the sooner you’ll stop
buying the latest, greatest golf swing
aids.
