My Favorite Training Aids
The golf training aids on this page have given me the biggest impact the fastest... and they'll do the same for you.
How do I know... I've got two closets full of golf training aids that do the job they say they will do and deliver good value.
But, there are only a few that make it to this page. The training aids included here are the ones I use at least a few times a week, if not every day. Thus "Favorites".
Email me at [email protected] if you buy any or all of them and you don't find tremendous value in them.
I'll start with putting since every stroke saved there comes right off your score.

Pros:
Cons:
I expected the Wellstroke would help me make better contact more consistently. I did not expect it would improve my touch and my technique to the extent it has.
- The amplitude lines help you dial in distance control
- The tee gates and graphics teach you to putt on a much tighter arc
- These two features will make you a ton more consistent
I use it every day. Buy it and use it and you will score better. I guarantee it.

- Forces you into correct positions to make solid contact
- Excellent for Timing, Tempo & Swing Sequence
- 10-Video Training Series by Adam Bazalgette
- Requires patience & perserverance
Pros:
Cons:
I swing my Lag Shot 7-iron every single day at home and it goes with me to the range too. I'm obsessed with sequence and timing in my swing.
My driving improves every time I practice the Lag Shot driver.
Your swing sequence, timing, and tempo can never be too good and it's great for those. But, it does a lot more once you step up to hit a ball. It forces you, if you want to hit the ball well, to take it back on plane, transition smoothly, and swing into impact on the correct swing path.
So, it does a lot and most of it intuitively. There's also a 10-video training series included with your Lag Shot to make sure you make the most of it.

Pros:
Cons:
I've used the DUB to make my swing much more efficient. My lower body is more stable, I sway less off the ball, and I get down and through impact faster with less effort. I think of it as "tightening" my swing.
I look at tour pros and wonder at how little, if any, wasted movement there is in their golf swing. I want that, or something close, and the DownUnder board helps me get just a little closer. (Emphasis on "little")
It may seem a little expensive for two pieces of plastic, but you're paying for the thought that went into it and, more importantly, for results. It's an absolute bargain when you think of it this way.
