Anyone have or use a DeWiz?

I bought one a few months back and love the immediate biofeedback (it will shock your wrist right as you go outside the tolerances you set). 

I used the transition training every day for about 2 weeks (I was struggling with an over the top move and the sensor helped me get a new feel that was WAY different from anything  I would’ve tried without the feedback).

Planning to do the distance wedge training at least once a week next season. 

That being said I wish deWiz allowed me to measure and practice with biofeedback using more parameters (currently limited to length of backswing, tempo and transition). A couple params that come to mind are max hand speed and then the distance from impact that the max speed occurs.

transition

What does that mean here?

Like, what about the transition is it "measuring"?

Good question.

from the deWiz website “deWiz’s Transition measures how far over-the-top or under-the-top your downswing is compared to your backswing plane”

My words… it measures the direction of the Handpath when the sensor changes direction and gives a positive or negative number (with 0 being labeled “on plane”).

I'm seriously considering the deWiz but its not cheap!

I guess my main question is, is it worth it for a Mr Average like me?  15 handicap.

Hey! Welcome 

Hard to say. What are your current practice habits? Which features were you drawn to?

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      Day 8: 12/17/2024 Okay I took my new PPJ swing thought to the range today. I wasn't sure I was quite ready to do so, but I'm glad I did.  When I got it right it was good... really good. When I got it wrong it was a major fail. I hit lots of really ugly ones. But I didn't let that deter me. I stayed committed and focused on the PPJ and I avoided any temptation to go back to what I was doing before just so that I could "look" better at the range. I'm pretty excited about what I saw when I got it right.  I hit the 6 iron mostly (nearly all block work today). I also hit about 6 balls each with the PW, 8I, 5W and Driver. Those had varying degrees of success. I did crack one drive that let me feel and see what the changes will look like once I get fully trained.  Anyway, I'm going to go back to the mirror work for a couple of more days before bringing it back to the range. I do feel like if I can get this right my swing will improve a lot. So I think its worth the effort. I liked the way it looked on GEARs when I get it right, and I like the results I got at the range when I got it right. Now the goal is to work towards getting it right more often.

      Can Somebody Explain to Me Why Lie Angle Balanced Putters Are Important?

      I'm sure you are correct.

      By Ty_Webb ·

      So I think it's that they can't just bend the shaft or hosel to get it to a new lie angle. They adjust that and it changes the weighting, so they have to then adjust all the weights to get it balanced again. I get the impression that it's a bit of an iterative process and they do it all in the US, so they're paying US labor costs to build it and make it work how it's supposed to. Whether you believe in the tech or not, I think that's a true statement.

      Ah, the old EE in the backswing move. Chest going back and staying down doesn't help.

      Extremely outward path with a very closed club face. Maybe unless you have a stupidly weak grip, like right hand way over top, I don't think the grip is necessary highly correlated to this.
