There is a rumor amongst amateur golfers that the pros would never use golf swing teaching aids. Well let’s just lay that rumor to rest right now.
The primary teaching aid that the pros use, is of course the coach. Maybe you or I don’t have the money to afford personal tuition, but just as a coach will select particular teaching aids to use with a player, so we can select those teachings aids for ourselves. Some of these aids work better than others, and some are gadgets which are probably no better than toys. However, by doing some research there are some great resources out there to help you improve your swing.
So what do you need to look out for when you are making your selection. Firstly, do not rush into anything, look around carefully and view any testimonies of users of the tool or resource, to see how valuable it has demonstrated itself to be. Once you have made your selection and in order to help transfer your knowledge into practice, the most important thing in order to allow you to work on your swing will be something that allows you to see what you are doing. The best method, if you have the opportunity available to you, is to use the video equipment in the practice area of your local course. Another option would be to film yourself on a computer webcam or have a friend or family member follow you around with a video camera. You will be surprised at how much you will be able to learn just from watching your swing on video.
In conclusion then, in order to gain the most from any golf swing teaching aids you need to first make your selection carefully after much research and then you need a way of viewing your swing and the overall effects of whatever aids you are using.
