Golf Training Aid #1: The Impact Ball

The impact ball is a proven revolutionary golf training aid that will help the golfer hit the ball longer, straighter and more solid as well as helps focus the body and club to work together better, while hitting through the ball. For about $40 this is an economical and a useful golf training aid.

Golf Training Aid #2: The ReFiner Golf Swing Trainer

The ReFiner Golf Swing Trainer helps to improve your swing through feet mechanics rather than the more complicated swing mechanics. It employs a hinge near the head of a 5 iron which ‘breaks’ if your swing is not smooth and flowing. It can be taken along to the golf course where it is most useful. The cost of this is about $80.

Golf Training Aid #3: Medicus Full Swing Driver

Considered by many to be the best of the golf training aids on display here, the Medicus full swing driver has been voted the no.1 aid by golf pros, all around the world. Using one of these, you can rid your game of the slice, and begin to hit straighter and longer.  All this adds up to lower scores. At $160, this is a must-have golf training aid.

Golf Training Aid #4: The SDF (Straight, Draw, Fade) System

The golfer's primary aim is to hit the ball straight and the SDF will help you to do just that. This simple and economical training aid can be carried onto the golf course despite its perculiar appearance. Once fitted to your golf club it looks as though the shaft has sprouted helicopter blades.  The 'blades' provide you with a visual aid in order to keep your swing straight and even.  You can pick it up for around $30.

Golf Training Aid #5: The Laser Tee

Another useful golf training aid is the Laser Tee, which consistently positions the golfer’s leading foot to the ball for every club and it is compact, promotes discipline and helps to achieve enhanced accuracy and alignment, when hitting the ball. It costs $80 and is important for those wishing to learn how to address the golf ball.

Golf Training Aid #6: The Condor SC Golf Driver

If you tend to hook and slice the ball, it might be worth taking at the Condor SC golf driver.  The Condor helps you address and strike the ball with greater acccuracy. This golf training aid uses moveable weights to correct slices and hooks and is believed to improve your accuracy by a factor of two compared to other golf training aids. Its manufacturers claim it has been scientifically designed, and you can find it on sale at around $130.

Finding the Right Golf Training Aid

It’s not necessary to fill your caddy cart with all these golf training aids.  The best approach would be to meet with your course pro, ask him or her where your weaknesses lie, and try and find the appropriate golf training device to remedy your weakness.  There are so many golf training aids out there; if you try all of them you’ll end up spending a small fortune.
