It CAN be a good aid but the chances are it would reinforce bad like Scott said.

Thank you. In case you know where to buy a PBS please let me know (I am still intrigued by it, although less than before). Off topic, I am a happy owner of Lowest Score Wins. It is a great read

ever since I saw this video by Jeff 10 years ago it completely took my ball striking to another level, and still does :-)

and the Aiming Point Concept

Martin Chuck "clubhead delivered into a position of lag so the ball is compressed" just doing the below is a great reminder of how to hit some 10 yard shots in the garden

You said that three weeks ago, and you haven't responded to my PM in that time either.

P.S. I merged your new topic into this one. We've cut you some slack as we don't allow people or groups to promote themselves out of the gate, so please don't abuse that privilege.

Seriously, it's pretty bold for folks to come on here and promote a product for profit.  Now, about this new golf ball I've developed...

The guy needs to respond to your PM.

We apologize,

This post was written with the intentions of responding to former post/comments regarding the Pure Ball Striker. More specifically, a post made and re-edited in 2018 written by Iacas. Though we responded 3 weeks ago our companies goal was to reach out to those players and provide more information regarding The Pure Ball Striker. With the hopes of starting a conversation point on the fundamental traits for the new direction of the Pure Ball Striker and to clear the error. We apologize if we offended anyone on this site related to this post. We by no means were trying to promote our product. Also we would be glad to respond to your PM's; this is our first time revisiting this site since our last post. 

To clarify, this is not a promotional post it is an opportunity to have a discussion regarding our product. I am certain this is an honest misunderstanding and we plan to handle this situation with humility, graciousness, and transparency. 

P.S. As I stated to Isacs in a PM, our company is going to be giving him a complementary Pure Ball Striker for his detailed review and commentary on our product. In the hopes that we can help all players efficiently with their golf swing, we would like to supply the first 30 people who PM us with a complementary Pure Ball Striker to show our gratitude. More details will be given in the PM . 

Thank you

The only PM I have from you doesn't say anything about sending me a new PBS. I'll take one, and share my thoughts, or buy one, but your PM only said:

Sent through the post: https://thesandtrap.com/forums/topic/41747-pure-ball-striker-training-aid/?do=findComment&comment=654226

We plan to release our new design of the Pure Ball Striker in the summer of 2021. Our partners have made modifications to ensure satisfaction in compliance with the fundamental traits of any great golf swing. We would like to keep in touch and possible work with you on clearing up some misconceptions that may be made towards our design. We appreciate your feed back.

As an instructor, I then offered to help with the development and/or provide feedback, etc.:

I'd be happy to be involved in the development or testing or in any facet.

I'll stand by my comment regarding the previous PBS, but I still talk in many lessons about the location of PP3 (particularly at the top of the downswing as well as how it affects the club face orientation on the downswing).

The comment is simply more about how I saw people using it, what they tended to do with it (using it improperly). In essence, they would "push" against that rather than letting the shaft/grip push back against them.

If the new PBS is good, in my opinion, I'll remove the warning on the first post and link to the post you made with an update, so the conversation can carry on from there.

I'm happy to sign (or just agree to) an NDA or whatever. But please, let's understand that I'm cutting you guys a little slack because of the history, and that we generally don't just let people promote themselves without having done much to give back to the folks who make up this community.

This is the PBS topic. If a new version is released, and it's good, I will:

  • Update the topic title.
  • Update my "warning."
  • Link to the start of the new discussion (of the new PBS) in the first post.

Just a heads up: @Pure Ball Striker informed me that they’d be leaving this site and asked to have their account removed, so I wouldn’t bother sending them a PM.

    • My dad had an original Ping Anser that I got refinished. Ping only charged $20 so I figured why not. It’s hard to believe the weight difference between my current gamer (counterbalanced Edel with 25g weight) and the Anser. I’m going to throw a new grip on the Anser and try it out.  I know this is a huge difference and just from a few practice swings the lighter putter doesn’t feel near as stable. I highly doubt it will outperform the Edel but wanted to know what’s everyone’s experience with a lighter vs heavier putter?
    • Right - better can mean different things depending on the situation. It might mean scoring better or it might mean closer to a functional swing (which in the moment might be scoring worse). 
    • That's certainly "basic" information. I need a lot more info than just that for a good chunk of my even teen-handicap golfers.
    • As we said… define "better."
    • Phone launch monitors are only getting better.  The cameras are improving with each new generation of phone and software is getting more accurate.  It is only a question of time before phone apps are good enough for all the basic information a golfer needs (club head speed, ball speed, carry distance, total distance).  It makes me wonder about the value of launch monitors in the long run, barring high level amateurs and professionals who want very accurate data and more parameters
