Golfers of every level seeking to improve their golf games have tried a multitude of methods. Some have proven effective while others have not only been ineffective but in some cases have been downright embarrassing.
Who among us will ever forget the golf gadget scene from the Kevin Costner movie "Tin Cup"? Didn't he look ridiculous wearing all that gear?
How is the average golfer supposed to know a good swing trainer from a bad one? Well that is where a honest review or recommendation from someone who has been where you are comes in very handy.
I have worked on my swing for a very long time and have employed countless training devices in the process. I can speak from experience and save you the time and money I spent to improve my golf swing.
Swing aids are all designed to address a specific aspect of the golf swing. They are engineered to give mechanical feedback to the golfer when they fail to execute the swing properly. The Medicus is a good example. It focuses on the helping the golfer with any swing plane issues. Others focus on something different like building swing speed or golf muscles.
For golfers struggling with topping the ball or mis-hitting your irons there is a new swing training club that will actually train you to make the proper contact with the golf ball.
This swing training device is built with the lower half of the club face, including the leading edge, removed just below the sweet spot. The club head is rounded off from just below the sweet spot forcing the golfer to lean the club shaft forward during impact in order for the clubface to strike the ball.
If the golfer fails to do so the rounded portion will strike the ball causing it to run along the ground instead of becoming airborne.
You see the reason so many weekend golfers top their shots is because of the improper use of the golf club. Releasing the club too early causes the clubface to contact the ball above its center line resulting in the dreaded topped shot or "worm burner" as it is sometimes called.
This training aid teaches the golfer to make contact with the ball with a forward leaning club shaft. Doing so brings the clubface and its sweet spot into the ball properly allowing all the engineering built into the golf clubs (loft, grooves and shaft performance features) to cause the classic ball flight we have all come to know and love.
One percent of golfers strike golf balls correctly. One percent! This training club will intuitively help you understand leverage and how to apply the club head to the golf ball in the same manner as the best players in the world.
You can stop hitting those topped shots and begin hitting those classic iron shots with help The Tour Striker.
