Everyone wants to add yards to their drive. You know you want to belt it 325 down the middle like Tiger. There are plenty of training aids out there on the market claiming they will add 5..10…25 yards to your drive, but most fall short in delivering on those promises. The problem generally is due to the fact that even with the greatest of training aids, you must put in the work with it to see results. So the challenge for a training aid designer is to create an effective tool that both shows results and is fun to use. Is the Power Blade the answer? We’ll find out!

Not long ago, we did a review on practice balls from Birdie Ball. The people at Birdie Ball were kind enough to send us a bunch of Deep Rough branded balls. They have a nice little Deep Rough logo on the side and are a blast to play with.
So we have [...]

Not long ago I wrote about the GyroSwing which will soon be released by SLKZ golf. They also happen to offer a few other training aid products, a couple of which caught my eye: The Refiner and Swing Accelerator. The refiner is a hinged driver which works on getting your golf swing on plane. The Swing Accelerator, on the other hand, is a weighted club which targets the distance part of your game. We will have a look at both of these devices today and see if they can help your game.

Early last year I had a look at The Floppy, a soft indoor practice ball. I still use it to this day, chipping/flopping around the house. I have had a look at a bunch of practice balls at this point, and The Floppy is definitely the one to use inside the house. Recently the guys who created The Floppy released a new version with a more durable design and some fancy packaging. Adam, president of The Floppy, was kind enough to send along a sleeve of the new guys.

A few months ago I wrote up a review of the Momentus Power Hitter.  I really enjoy working with that club.  I remember when I first picked it up and took some swings, I was sore for the next three days.  Now, I really feel as if I have picked up some flexibility and perhaps [...]

Of all the products shown on the Fore Inventors Only show on The Golf Channel last year, the Gyro Swing really piqued my interest.  If you did not see the show, what I find revolutionary about this device is that it actually makes you feel a proper release and what it is like to be on the [...]

It is cold outside…snowing in fact. So, what better way to get your golf fix in, than to swing a golf club around the house and check out your swing speed. Today we will be having a close look at a device that can accurately measure that for you: the Swing Speed Radar [...]

Not too long ago we posted a review of a golf swing tempo device, SwingTempo. Today we’ll have a look at another device aimed at improving your swing tempo, the Tour Tempo Player by Tour Tempo. If you have ever struggled with your tempo…my swing feels so slow today…why is my swing so [...]

This winter, my goal was to set up an indoor driving range so I can keep my swing in tune during the cold winter months. Fortunately for me, my home has 9′ ceilings in the basement, so I am able to do this. Obviously, one of the main components to an indoor range [...]

I had the opportunity to demo the SwingTempo this week. I’ve used it in my basement on my indoor “driving range”, and today, I used it outside at the actual driving range. This training aid is designed to help you work on the one aspect of your swing I’m sure you’re ignoring: [...]

You may remember an excited guy jumping up and down with joy as he advanced to the next round of Fore Inventors Only. Joseph Pagano, inventor of The Power Stance, brought a great deal of liveliness to the cast of inventors on this Golf Channel contest/reality show. Unfortunately for Joe, the Power Stance [...]

A typical modern driver weighs approximately 250-280 grams (200g head, 50-80g shaft). The Power Hitter weighs in at a whopping 500g, twice the weight of your normal driver. This has a couple significant effects on your golf swing: 1) you cannot possibly get your hands/arms overly involved in the golf swing without horribly [...]

How many of you have putted on your office or living room carpet, and after a few minutes realized it was just not a realistic speed, or consistency of a real green? How about with one of those “putting carpets” that have a hole on the end that returns the ball to you? [...]
