I'm bad at bowling, too. Maybe I can design something similar for the bowling market. A few 2X4's and a laser.

I've got it set up in my office and grab my putter and putt with it off and on all day. I don't have too many golf gadgets, this one seems decent. I have seen the tee/string trick, don't really know if that works better for muscle memory or not.

OK Let's get one thing straight. There is no teaching gadget made that can actually help the average golfer. Let's face it the average golfer sucks at golf most of them should be bowling!. Why do they suck, well for some it is a physical limitation thing. They just don't have the coordination to be able to play well. But for most it's because they don't practice. They don't get instruction regularly. They don't care if their game gets better as long as they get to get drunk while playing. For a gadget to work a person has to use it! I mean use it allot!!!!!! People buy these things (myself included) with good intentions but 99.99% don't use them regularly. They sit in a corner of the garage collecting dust.

$150 is a lot of money for something you can do with 2 tees and a string ???? The tees and string will fit in your bag too!!!! The tees and a string will also work better seeing that you have to do the guiding of the clubs direction not the rails. This will make those muscles work more and they will learn quicker.

Morning John. The gadget you are referring to, this is my own opinion, is overly priced for the average golfer. It is just a gimmick to get players money. The same results can be achieved with four tees and a putter, all of which are already in the players golf bag. Over the years I have bought enough training aids like this only to discover that it doesn't really teach you anything and I finally got smart. I have a box of such "tools for putting" that look great and do work but at the cost is total out of line. At a $150 a player should buy a good hybrid fairway club and get out and play. You take the four tees, placed them in a square a half inch larger than the putter blade width (3/4 if an inch for beginners), place a ball in the middle of the tees, take the blade back, pass it straight through the tees, (with only the shoulder moving the arms back and then through) and follow through to the ball. I have been using and teaching this method for several years and have had good results. On goods day I will average between 23 and 28 putts. Now if I could get my fairway hits more on the money I am sure I could get in the single digit handicap range.

There are not very many training aids that I find being an actual aid. Money spent learning to putt could better be spent on playing time. Just my experience, no one has to pay attention to it. Have a great day!

Putting Training Aid
I found a nice putting training aid from the designer of Yamada milled putters. It's called the Dream 54. There's a plastic piece that attaches to your putter shaft. The plastic piece/putter then fits inside two metal rails attached to two heavy metal feet for stability. The Dream 54 helps to train a square putter face and a straight back and forth stroke. It's well made, can be used indoors our out. Set it up at home or your office and groove your putting stroke over the winter. If there's any interest I'll import a batch of them.

By the way, I send out monthly information on new golf equipment called The Clubmaker Report, would you like me to add your email address to it? Send me a quick note if yes.



Thanks!
