Up-Tempo Practice DVD by Bob Hurley, Sr.


I got this DVD because I read a review that rated it very highly. I was a little disappointed, and definitely don't think it's worth the $40+.
Coach Hurley has many good ideas he tells you, and many good drills he shows you. But I had a hard time visualizing how my own team would benefit from them. I also couldn't see how Coach Hurley's teams benefited from them, because he never showed or explained how the drills fit with his system.
In our practices now I am using 1-2 of the many drills he showed, and I like them fine, but they're only a little better than drills we already use, and I wish I hadn't dropped $40+ to benefit from 1-2 drills.

Mini Putt Golf - Dozen - Colored Golf Balls, Orange - Sports


The only good thing I can say about these balls is they are orange. If you actually use them to play golf you will be disappointed, as I was. They feel like hitting marshmallows and fly about as far. They arrived in 2 ziploc bags and one had only 11 balls instead of a dozen. They may work for putting practice or as range balls, but that is about all I would recommend them for.

Tac-Tic Knee


Of the 3 Tac Tic items I have purchased to date this is by far the least useful and unfortunately was the most expensive . Because of the cost of freight I purchased this with the other 2 items . Shouldnt have .!

Hank Haney Putting Track


Advertised as being adjustable in width, but is not the case. The product is much too wide for my putter.

Golf Digest Ball Retriever


There is an error in description. Only extends to 6.5' . Good buy if that's okay.

SyncaSwing - The Ultimate Golf Swing Analyzer


I am quite pleased with the device. I don't think its small weight matters since it is positioned at a position on the shaft where it is relatively neutral to the swing weight. Very good for practising the release in a cramped area without a ball.Buy SyncaSwing - The Ultimate Golf Swing Analyzer!

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!
