How A Golf Swing Training Aid Can Help Your Swing

By: Trent

Every golfer wants to improve their golf swing. Training aid information is overwhelming and sometimes unreliable. How can you cut through all the BS and find out how legitimate a golf training aid for your swing really is?

Up until now�you would go on what you see on the television; what your golfing buddies recommend; or maybe even your local teaching pro. But how do you know if a particular training aid will really help your game? Do you spend hundreds of dollars a year on the next golf gadget, or do you do some homework to find out how effective it would be?

Specific To Your Swing Fault

One thing you need to take into consideration is your specific swing fault. By knowing your swing fault, you can eliminate certain golf swing aids that will obviously not help. For example, if you are a slicer of the golf ball, you wouldn�t get a training aid that addresses hooking the ball. This is an obvious comparison, but one that you should take into consideration when choosing a golf training aid.

Price Range Is A Factor

Golf training aids can range from under $20 to over $200. The variance is huge! Everyone has a budget, and it all comes down to what you are willing to spend �in hopes� of a better swing. If you can talk to someone who has had success with a particular product, then you are one step ahead of anyone going in cold and spending a lot of money.

Needs To Mimic Your Golf Swing

So many training aids for golf are not even close to what you actually do in your swing from a mechanical standpoint. I have seen countless golf swing aids that ingrain bad muscle memory and actually make your swing worse. When researching a golf swing training aid, take a look at the general motion of what they want you to do with it. If is makes sense to you, then give it a trial run. If it is far and away different than your golf swing, move on.

You Don�t Need The Latest � Greatest

It is so easy to see some new training aid gadget being advertised on the television and fall for the great salesmanship in the commercial. Don�t fall victim to this hypnotic sales pitch. There are training aids that have stood the test of time, and are still effective in helping you improve your golf swing.

Golf Swing Improvement

The end result is a better, more consistent swing. It doesn�t matter if you spend only $20, did it help you? Some of the most expensive aids have not helped a huge amount of people. I can say this because I receive emails everyday from golfers how have spent hundreds and still have not improved. The bottom line is to stay focused on your needs and get a golf swing training aid that will address those needs and solve your problem.

You can�t fire a gun unless you pull the trigger, right? A similar concept also applies to the golf swing, which also usually requires a �trigger move� to get the body moving. Now, not everyone has a trigger, some manage to swing well from a static position to a dynamic position. But for the rest of us who often find confusion when it comes to where to start the golf swing, a trigger move can help you start swinging in a fluid and consistent manner.

When you want to get some extra distance out of your drives, it�s natural to think that your right or dominant hand (for right-handed golfers) should supply the power. In reality, however, maximum power is a result of a left-hand lead.

Golf Putting Aids



Most golfers set their driver on the ground at address. This results in a high percentage of driver shots being hit on the heel-side of the face, especially when we tee the ball higher. Test yourself this way: The next time you are at the range and set up to hit your driver, once in the address position stretch your arms out and move the club up to the ball's height. Notice where the ball is going to contact the face of your driver? On the heel side � or possibly the hosel � of your driver.

Your Golf Swing Will Improve With Great Posture

Fri, 07 Mar 2008 16:31:13 -0600
Having good posture during your golf swing is one of the many elements that can affect correct execution. If you have been playing golf for some time, then this it not new to you. First off, let's look at the stance. Keeping your shoulders in line with your upper torso and not hunched over is a start. Also, your feet need to be spaced accordingly to the length of the club you are using. Closer together for shorter clubs, and more spaced apart for your longer clubs. A slight bend in the knees is ideal, with your arms slightly bent and in line with the golf club. This causes your front arm to be straight in line with your shoulders when you begin your back swing. It is important that you're not hunched over at the shoulders, as this can affect this part of the swing.
