I’ve been working with the longer band over the past few weeks. Last week, my range opened up again and I got to hit some real balls. I have the pitching motion down for the most part, but when I go for longer swings, I can’t hit it right. When I try doing my typical swing with the longer band, it always crosses over under my club. I guess that means I’m too flippy. When I try to keep the band behind and have it hit on my forearm on the follow through, I usually end up hitting behind the ball and/or leaving the clubface way open at impact. It feels really weird, like I’m holding off the follow through to keep the band from crossing over. When the club hits the ground early, it almost always crosses over.

It’s frustrating, but I’ll keep working with it - definitely get a different feeling from it. I try to take it off and hit some without it after. Need to get the camera setup for the range too. Anyone else been using it and struggling through like me?

Looks like it’s working. Can’t see you shanking the ball like that.

Was thinking about picking one up, but not sure if it can supplement what my Evolvr coach has me working on, or if I should just skip it altogether.

Used properly it’s pretty good for golf swings. But it may not be your priority piece.

[Knockglock]

Will this work for a left-handed golfer?  

[iacas]

Yeah just flip it.

The How’s My Hand Path podcast interviewed Chuck and he outlines how the Planemate took off. Interesting listening. Apparently there is a version 2.0 coming.

Bumping the thread. just bought a Planemate and wondering how everyone who's posted is doing with the thing.

Thanks in advance.

Great. They're nice for a lot of things. Particularly down near the ball.

I have to add that it matches very close to what my Evolvr instructor has had me work on for the last year. I use it as part of my practice at times as a refresher. Well worth it.

I ran into the second "speed bump" in my off-season training, earlier this week: Takeaway. (First was unlearning "straight back, head up.")  Talked to one of my trainers. He suggested a PlaneMate might help me get it right. 

Unfortunately I bunged my right knee up in the meantime, and my "golf studio" (the living room) is a bit cluttered with our painter's dreck, so I won't find out for a few days.

[iacas]

Sale ends today!

I'm curious, the Planemate had a lot of buzz for about a year or year and a half. I haven't heard much for a while. Have people gotten what they wanted from this? Has the golf community moved on to something else?
