My Member Review

 

This is the second putting aim trainer that I am reviewing.  I received both this product and "The Navigator" within days of each other.  My initial thought was that I was not going to like this one as much as the other, but that turned out not to be true.

I visited the product website (which I feel could use a lot of work to be made more professional) and reviewed the benefits claimed.

  • Places golfers eyes over the ball
  • Golfer will see if they are pushing or pulling the putts
  • Immediate visual feedback as to where the putter is facing at impact

  • Prevents deceleration through the putting stroke
  • Player will improve lie of putter with both toe flat to the putting surface
  • REDUCE YOUR SCORES AND HANDICAP
  • #MAKEMOREPUTTS
  • Easy to attach to the putter.
  • For right and left handers.
  • Fits in your bag and pocket!
  • Lightweight and adjustable.
  • Ready to use straight out of the package with immediate results

  • Simple, sleek and shot saving device!
  • Great for golfers of all ages and skills who want to improve their game.

The product is very simple, comes in a simple clam shell package that can also be used for storage.  It appears flimsy at first but is made of a certain type of plastic that is supposedly very durable.  I found this to be true in my use, I store it in the trunk of my car and throw it in my bag when I know I'll be doing putting practice.

The product clips onto the shaft in seconds and the pointer can be moved anywhere along the post which is not obvious at first glance.  There are no instructions that come with it so some of these features/uses had to be figured out by the reviewers or via communication with the business owner.

This product success in alignment help, especially on putts within 8-10 feet.  For longer putts it will only be effective to hit your initial line mark, which is equally as useful.

For the price ($9.99), this product is a good value, small enough to not worry about keeping in your bag and add value to putting practice.   I usually get asked at least once per session when using it on the practice greens,

I appreciate the opportunity to review Train Your Aim and I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for this type of aid.

Thank you for the review.  I always appreciate someone taking the time to review 'Train Your Aim' and provide feedback.  It is a simple device, especially in a day and age when things are getting more and more technical, and can and will help all golfers of all levels.

Many, many thanks, for your thoughts!

David

    • Probably since the golfer has to swing the club back and up. The hands have to move back and up. You can feel them go back and up just by turning the shoulders and bending the right arm, because it brings your hands towards your right shoulder.  The difference is if you maintain width or not. Less width means a shorter feeling swing path so the more you need to lift the arms. Being as someone who gets the right arm bend at 110+ degrees, it's 100% a timing issue. I am use to like a 1.5+ second backswing. It probably should be like 1 second at most. Half a second or more will feel like an eternity. I have had swings where I keep my right arm straighter and I am still trying to time the downswing based on the old tempo.  Ideally, for me, it is probably going to be a much quicker and shorter (in duration) backswing, while keeping the right elbow straighter. Which also means more hinging to get swing length without over swinging.

    • I'm currently recuperating from surgery, so no golf, but have been thinking about this quite a bit. This and the don't overbend the right arm thing. It's hard for me to even pose the position, so I'm not 100% sure, but I feel like it's impossible to have the right humerus along the shirt seam and not overbend your right arm, unless your hands are down near your hips. If the left arm is up at or above the shoulder plane and your right arm is bent less than 90 degrees, then your right humerus has to raise or your hands will get pulled apart. Your left hand can't reach your right hand unless either the right upper arm is up or the right arm is overbent. Is that right? If it is, then focusing on not overbending the right arm would force you to raise the humerus. And actually thinking further on it, if you do overbend your right arm, then you're basically forcing your upper arm down or forcing your left arm to bend. Since (for me at least) bending the left arm too much is not something I think I need to worry about, it means that the bend in the trail arm is really the driving force behind what happens to the right humerus. 
    • I managed to knock off a 3, a 13, and a 15 a couple of weeks ago. The 3 was a 185 yard par 3 with a 6 iron to 12 feet. 13 was a 350 yard par 4, which was a 2 iron and a 9 iron to about a foot. 15 was a 560 yard par 5 with a driver in a bunker, 4 iron into the semi, gap wedge to 8 feet and a putt.
