The Best Golf Training Aids to Improve Your Golf Swing
The StraightAway
Aside from the grip, one of the most important moves you can learn this offseason is your takeaway. If your takeaway is off, it will lead to all kinds of swing issues, including that pesky slice and inconsistent contact with irons.
After giving hundreds of thousands of lessons, David Leadbetter found that if golfers can fix this simple move – anyone can build a repeatable golf swing. This is why he created the StraightAway.
This PGA-approved training tool fixes your takeaway and provides real-time feedback during your swing. It guarantees you will make consistent, flush contact as you’ll create lag and compress the golf ball.
What’s great about this one-of-a-kind training aid is that it’s easy to use, and portable, so you can practice with it anywhere. It clips to the shaft of any golf club and only weighs as much as a sleeve of balls.
Once attached, it will help you keep your arms, hands, and body on track for a perfect takeaway. This will make it easier to not roll the club inside on the backswing (the most common mistake for amateur golfers) and get into the perfect backswing position. Which makes it easy to unwind and begin the swing with your lower body to generate incredible power and more consistency.
This training aid also comes with free video training to help you develop a tour takeaway. Plus, other training from David Leadbetter, 14-day access to Scratch Club (more on that below), and a 365-day guarantee.
The Straight Stick
If you struggle with compression and solid contact with irons or wedges, you’ll love The Straight Stick. This one-of-a-kind swing trainer is designed by Rocco Mediate and will help you train a perfect release and increase lag for more control.
The genius of this device starts with the AccuGrip which gets your hands into a great starting position. By mastering your grip in the offseason you’ll learn to eliminate so many tendencies that cause a slice and inconsistent contact.
It’s as simple as adjusting the compression clicker to your personal swing speed and style. Then, start swinging and seeing results! You’ll start to feel and hear the perfect release, allowing you to continue practicing the right way, eliminating any bad habits that may form with consistent incorrect swinging.
This training aid is available in both right or left-hand models as a 7-iron or driver. Both allow you to hit golf balls at a simulator, net, or the driving range to get instant feedback. Or, if you don’t have access to any facilities in the winter, you can simply use it to practice without a ball in any convenient area in your home or yard.
Whether you’re a beginner, intermediate, or advanced golfer, this training aid can help to master your impact and swing! It also comes with extra video training and a Livestream coaching session with Rocco to fine tune your skills (at no extra cost).
Don’t forget, this swing trainer also comes with a 365-day satisfaction guarantee!
