    Has anyone used the driving range in the wii fit plus as well as the swing analyzer? Any comments about its effectiveness as a training aid?

    I did it once and it said I had a perfect swing, so I'm pretty sure it's not a reliable source.
    What's in my Taylormade Diablo stand bag:

    Driver - r9 460 TP Motore F1 65
    3 Wood - Burner 15* REAX
    Hybrid - Idea Pro 18* GD YSQ-HL
    Irons - X-18 4-PW
    GW - 588 51* gunmetal
    SW - CG 12 56* low bounce
    LW - TA900 60* RTG low bounce
    Putter - Studio Style Newport 2
    Medalist rangefinder

    You guys have to remember that it is basing everything on your weight transfer. So I think as far as telling you if you have a proper and aggressive transfer, it is mildly accurate. Obviously, I would not take a Wii Fit balance board over say, a PGA instructor, but I believe its assessment of your weight transfer throughout the swing is pretty good.
    In My University of Kentucky Bag:

    R9 460
    R9 T3
    TP Rescue 17, 21 degree
    R7 TP 3-PW W/ Project X 6.0
    Rac Z TP Wedges 50, 54, 58
    Rife Two Bar Hybrid Mallet
    TP Black
    Pro V1
