SKLZ Rick Smith Practice POD - Collapsible Alignment Tool


I have purchased many alignment aids, and this is the best one I've found. What makes it the best is that it is easy to carry and use, and the Amazon price is lower than any of the large volume golf merchandisers.

I carry the alignment tool in my golf bag; it's easy to put it in and take it out of the bag when I get to the practice range. This device can be used for practice of both the short and full-swing game.

Some "critics" ask me why I use this aid rather than just laying down my own clubs, and I reply that it helps me not only with my alignment but also with ball placement in my setup (I place the ball directly parallel with the black "hub" of the device and about 8 inches away from it). Also, I can use the device during sand trap practice without putting my clubs in the sand.

I have used this device for nearly a year and consider it one of the best buy training devices on the market. I trust that you will too.Buy SKLZ Rick Smith Practice POD - Collapsible Alignment Tool!

TEXAN CLASSICS Flag Stick & Cup Training Aid


This set works well! We've been using it for months now, and the flag is in good shape although I had to rig it for the top to stay on in a good breeze. Buy TEXAN CLASSICS Flag Stick & Cup Training Aid!

Adams Golf DIXX Putters


The Adams Golf Dixx digital training putter is a versatile club. It can be used as a regular putter with an insert that comes with it. However, that would neither justify the cost nor capitalize on the technology that comes with the digital training module.

Overall, I like the club as an aid to providing very specific feedback on how consistent and effective my putting stroke is. For each putt, the display will show where the ball and clubhead make contact (heel, center or toe), the angle of the clubface at impact (open, square or closed), the relative speed and direction of the backswing and follow-thru, and a few other useful data points. The club even more importantly will show your putting performance over a series of putts (10, 30 or 50 -- which you can select).

I have been using the club for several months, averaging about 15 putts a day. During that time I have found 3 "glitches" that I cannot seem to correct but which have NOT interfered with my practice. Occasionally, the club does not register every putt. Also the method for advancing and selecting the various displays is "quirky" -- i.e., sometimes I can make my selection easily and at other times it requires some careful manipulation. The third "glitch" is that the extended use of the display (for example, practicing with the display ON for more than 50 minutes straight) drains the 2 AAA batteries significantly and disrupts the display -- I use Duracell Ultra batteries.

I bought my DIXX new for $200 online. I could not justify to myself paying much more than $250 for it just because I had never been able to find it in any stores so I could evaluate it first-hand. Now that I've bought it and am using it regularly, I am convinced that it is worth more than what I paid for it.

I recommend this digital putter to those who are serious about improving the consistency and accuracy of their putting stroke. It's not a "miracle" device, but it is an excellent improvement tool that can be used at home, on the practice green, in the office or a hotel room, or in conjunction with other putter aids, such as the Accelerator 3 Putting Trainer (which I have & use with this club).Buy Adams Golf DIXX Putters!

Butch Harmon Laser Trainer


When I used this product the first time, I was surprised to see how much I was off the ideal plane. I could immediately correct my swing and when I started hitting balls, my new swing felt more natural and the shots went straighter. The only negative I have is that the enclosed VHS tape is useless as I have thrown out my video-player a long time ago.Buy Butch Harmon Laser Trainer!

MEDICUS Dual-Hinged Driver Training Clubs


I purchased the MEDICUS Dual-Hinged Driver Training Club in May, and did it after a lot of web surfing. AMAZON had it at the best price, NEW, and with the DVDs (which were very helpful). I think it is one of the best golf purchases I have made, after taking up the sport a few years ago. Some instruction is non-verbal, and the Medicus lets you know clearly when your swing is wrong. The primary benefit from me was that it taught me how to "wind up," and pace my swing, so as to get peak power and speed at point of impact. I am VERY glad I bought it!
