LESSON TEE
TRAINING DAYS
n GET YOUR GAME IN SHAPE WITH THESE 4 TOOLS
T
ime and lack of facilities can challenge even the most avid
golfer when it comes to improving and grooving your
swing through practice. That's where these four training
aids can help. From the full swing to the putter, each of these tools
pinpoints one or more facets of your game. The key, of course, is
making the effort. So set aside a few minutes each day during the
week to work on these drills. We can't make any promises, but
you'll likely enjoy the results during your weekend rounds.
THE ORANGE WHIP TRAINER
How it works: By integrating a very
whippy shaft with a counter-
weighted ball on the end, the
Orange Whip promotes a more
natural swing motion – which increases
power. Use it in your garage or the back
yard for 5 to 10 minutes of training time a
day, and you will enhance flexibility,
strength, coordination and, most impor-
tantly, tempo.
The payoff: With regular use, the Or-
ange Whip Trainer will help provide
noticeable improvements in your golf
swing such as increased suppleness,
more power and better balance.
SKLZ POWER POSITION
SWING TRAINER
How it works: Most amateurs lose energy
transfer during the downswing by casting
the golf club too early, robbing them of dis-
tance. The SKLZ Power Position Swing
Trainer helps get the hands into what top
golf instructors call the "power positions"
during the swing, teaching you how to load
and release the club for greater distance
and improved accuracy.
The payoff: The weighted device is great
for strengthening key golf muscles, the
dual-colored barrel keeps your swing on
plane and the molded training grip teaches
proper hand placement on the club.
SWING
WIZZARD
How it works: Taking
practice swings with
this long, two-headed
club helps improve
your swing plane. Due
to its design, the
Swing Wizzard forces
you to hinge your
wrists at the proper
spot at the top of the
backswing, and then
teaches you how to
get your hands for-
ward at impact, which
is critical to proper ball striking and power.
The payoff: The Swing Wizzard helps you identify
your plane throughout the swing, trains your mus-
cles to get the club into the proper impact posi-
tion and helps build a repeatable swing.
DAVE PELZ'S PUTTING TRACK
How it works: Dave Pelz's Putting Track helps groove the perfect
motion for your stroke whether you use a straight back, straight-
through stroke or an arc motion. The Putting Track also helps estab-
lish ideal eye position while standing over the ball at address, and
grooves alignment and motion to your intended target.
The payoff: The key to a better putting stroke is to practice a perfect
putting stroke. This device ensures your eyes are positioned correctly
at address, then helps you groove a silky smooth pendulum stroke.
