I was on looking through some videos on swing plane and I came across this one. When I saw it things sort of clicked for me. I really like that laser device he is using. It has a laser on both ends so you can see where you are on take-away and on the down swing.



I see that Butch Harmon has something like this but not exactly like this. I am wondering if anyone has seen this thing before and where I could get one?

Yeah good point. The guy in the video probably made that one too. Thanks

yeah, its simple! just lay down some tape on the ground, put your lasers on each end of the club, and line up the lasers with the tape on your backswing and follow through.

Ok so I built a make shift laser swing trainer thing-a-ma-bob and it worked miracles for me. It was the missing piece to my seemingly never ending search for the proper swing plane with my driver. The swing for my driver is the same as my irons but because the driver is longer it feels so much different to stay on the right plane.

When I used the laser to verify the correct swing plane I eliminated my slice problem. Went out and hit balls after verifying the correct plane and no more slice! Took me all of 5 minutes to build a make shift laser thing, verify proper plane and go from slice to no slice.

Too bad I didnt see this video last year.

Not saying I wont slice ever again but at least now I know for sure what my problem is and will be able to fix it when it rears its ugly head.

Yeah, I think this is pretty useful, although for me, it didn't seem to help as much with driver - but I had nice results with my longer irons and woods.

I'll keep this in the practice routine for a while.

    • Day 162 - More pitching work, really focusing on letting the club fall and turning my body. 
    • Our home course would be very interesting.  It is short from the black tees (around 6000 yards) and very few holes are considered not reachable in GIR for golfers who drive max 250 off the tee.  But there are two difficulties.  Only 3 holes don't have an OB though admittedly in some cases it is just behind the green.  The harder part is almost all the fairways slope away on both sides from the centre meaning if you hit a draw or fade, you are likely to wind up at the edge of the fairway or off into the rough if you bounce in the wrong place.
    • I assume the 3 iron in your iron set would do the job.  If you don't have the club, you should be able to buy it as a single club
    • Day 45 (16 Jun 24) -  Happy Father's Day all - got in a few swings with the clubs, focused on alignment for chipping and pitching.  For me if the target it 12noon, I need to have my feet somewhere around 11 for a solid dead on line pitch/chip.  Worked from about 5yds out to 25yds.  Worked through a series of clubs - 54, PW, 8i and 6i - noting flight patterns of each.  
    • day 94. Realized I’m getting a little too handsy. Worked on getting the club into good places and much shorter, slower swings to learn the movement.
