Anyone make their own training aids.

Im very handy and like to tinker around with stuff all the time and I was wondering if anyone else have made anything to help improve their game..

If so please list maybe it would help othes!

I have cut down one of those noodle pool toys (about 3ft) to lay on the ground to help with the swing path of my driver. I lay it down next to the ball on a staight line or slightly angled for a draw and if I hit the noodle I know my swing path is off.. Works similar to driveway markers, but this will indicate path and will imediatly show any mistakes becuase the noodle will move..  (I saw a Pro using one and though it was a great idea)

I have cut down a old 7iron to about 2/3rds it original size and regriped it so that I could swing the club in the house and not break everything.

I had an extremely bad case of tendonitis in my right shoulder so I made my own Big Stick Stretching Pole ( Dustin Johnson uses one) instead of paying $85.  I took an expandable broom handle (expands to like 6-7ft) $7 at HomeDepot and a hand ball from Sports Authority $2 and drilled a hole in the hand ball to a size slightly smaller than the threads on the broom handle. Srew on the ball and you saved around $76. After a couple initial therapy sessions and using this stretching pole for 5 minutes before a round or the range I have not had any problems with my shoulder! This is the most important thing in my bag!!!!!

My future brother-in-law made his own swingsticks(alignment sticks) out of driveway markers from Lowe's. Saved $20-30.

They were selling them at that time at our local Dick's for about $30, that's how.
