Golf Training Aids

The key to a lower score is to improve your swing by practicing. Practice alone will not allow one to reach their goal because the true key is to practice the right way with the correct equipment.

“I have been using my mat and birdie balls for about 4 weeks now and I absolutely believe they are the best training aid I have ever used. I try and hit them every chance I can the results are that I have lost at least 5 strokes a round.” -Joe Pantano

Success stories like these show how proper practice can result in a reduction of strokes from your score. The greatest thing about the realistic golf hitting mats and golf driving mats is that they can be used in your backyard with limited flight balls that accurately show the path of a shot without the lengthy retrieval required with a regular ball.

Putting is the most frustrating part of golf for most players. The reasons for so many of the struggles is that many people try to two putt rather than going for the hole, and the difficult breaks some greens provide.

“Forget the idea of a three-foot target area around the hole on long putts. Archers and pistol shooters aim for bulls-eyes, not the outer circles. Aim to make the putt.” -Bob Rotella

“Begin to dislike the look of a putt, and the chances of holing it at once become less.” -Joyce Wethered

To increase confidence in your putter, the best thing to do is practice. The most efficient way to do this is to use a putting training aid or outdoor green that is easily accessible and can be used in your spare time. By getting one of these your short game will greatly be improved and the levels of improvement are endless because of the realistic golf pitching mats that are also available.
