Impact Ball

The Green King — Mon, 18 Jul 2011 07:42:22 +0000

Description:The Impact Ball – Swing Trainer The Impact Ball is the only golf training aid that trains your whole game by developing feel with no mechanical thoughts. Train with the The Impact Ball to improve your putting, chipping, pitching, bunker play, and full swing. Most Training Aids try to fix one fault. The Impact Ball provides a feeling to increase distance, square the club face, and hit it pure everytime. View the complete Impact Ball Instructional Video
The Impact Ball takes the student’s focus away from trying to affect the golf ball and places the focus squarely on the body and club working together through the golf ball. At first, your results may not be overwhelming, but keep swinging with the ball in position and you will notice a difference. You are on your way to looking like a Tour Player with the golf club in your hands. You can actually hit balls with The Impact Ball to feel what a tour player feels in the golf swing. Practice at home or on the range with The Impact Ball to train your golf swing. Testimonials The one constant of all good ball strikers is their position at impact. The club is descending, the handle leads, and their weight is on their left side. Most amateurs have their weight back, head down, and wrists flipping at the ball. The Impact Ball gets my students to look and feel like a tour player at impact with very little direction. – Michael T. Merrill, PGA, is the Director of Instruction at The Nantucket Golf School and Teaching Professional at Redstick Golf Club. I’ve been amazed at how quickly using the Impact Ball has helped my students achieve more consistent results. This is the best aid I’ve used to date to teach students how to correctly use their chest, arms, and body without being restricted. Suzy Whaley PGA Professional I used the Impact Ball with one of my best players, and saw a dramatic improvement in his pitching and chipping. Jerry Tucker Top 100 Teacher The Impact Ball is a great way to feel what it is like to strike the ball solidly. It is simple to use and players of all skill level will see reults with this product.
