Which Golf Training Products Do You Really Need?
When it comes to golf training products there is certainly no shortage of choices. You have to know what you are looking for and why if you are thinking about buying golf training products. After all, you could spend a fortune on various golf aids and not see any improvement in your game.
Maybe you don’t have a particular problem with your game; you just want to improve certain aspects of it. For example – more distance, accuracy, consistency, or maybe you want to get into golf strength training because you know that when you are fit for golf you can have a better all round game.
As there are so many types of golf training products, in this article I will go over the top 4 categories that can help you. First, you will have to establish why you are in need of a golf training aid. Once you know the why you will have a better understanding of which particular problem in your golf game you need to improve.
Golf training equipment isn’t the only choice you have – in their place, you could have a look at the available golf guide books (eBooks) or golf DVD’s that show you how to improve certain areas of your game. Many of these eBooks and DVD’s are great resources for targeting and fixing a certain golfing problem; the golf swing, golf fitness programs, golf stretching exercises, how to fix a slice, or just some good general golf lessons. If you prefer using a physical golf training aid then here are the top 4 categories:
Full Swing Training Aids: In this category you will find the most choice but some of the products might not give you a total golf swing solution. The better golf swing trainers include the hinged golf clubs such as the Refiner hinged training clubs and the Medicus Dual Hinge Driver. Other golf training clubs that can help with the full swing are weighted golf clubs like the Momentus weighted clubs, or you could try the Leadbetter Swing Setter which is very good. Lastly, a bit more expensive but certainly the best of category, is the full swing trainer by Explaner.
Golf Fitness Training Aids: By getting fit for golf you will greatly improve all aspects of your golf game; so I recommend any golfer try out these training aids. The GolfGym is the renowned leader in the field of golf fitness and they offer complete solutions for the golfer. To increase your flexibility and to work on your golf specific muscles, there are two options. The first are weighted golf clubs which also improve your swing plane, and the second is the Explaner as it uses a weighted roller.
Golf Grip Training Aids: A good golf grip promotes a good golf swing therefore golf grip training aids are a good investment to perfect your golf grip. There are various different types of these aids, from special golf gloves that train you to grip the club perfectly every time and with the right pressure to molded grips that slip over your regular grip of your golf clubs. There are also grip aids that are for strengthening the muscles used for gripping the club.
Putting Training Aids: Putting is one of the most important areas of the game of golf and you will find many diverse putting aids to help with your putting. There are putting aids that help you with your tempo and even laser guided putters to help with alignment. You will also find a great variety of putting guides and tracks for alignment training as well as braces that train you in the correct positioning of your forearms and hands for the putting stroke.
The golf training categories above are what I consider the top 4. There are many more specific categories that deal with the golf tempo, swing plane, release, alignment, weight transfer, impact position, balance, and short game. There is a golf training aid to suit every golfers problem area or aspect that they want to improve. Make sure you buy the correct golf training product that will help you with the area of your game that needs improving.
