Although a little pricey, this looks like a decent feedback device for the low handicapper, like you. If you don't have video analysis feedback to look for faults, it looks like it can be helpful in getting you to refine your release point and hit through later.

I wouldn't recommend it for the high handicapper where they'll be hitting outside to in, as it won't be effective. How will they learn to swing inside to out, as it seems like the clip will always pop off the device with an early release of the hands? It would cause frustration.

In theory they all sound great. I have never been one to clamp and strap on golf aids. Sorta reminds me of the movie Tin Cup when Kevin Cosner (sp?) had all those devices strapped on trying to cure the shanks.

I ordered the Golf's MVP and I have to say the company is extremely deceptive and are currently running a scam. They sell the product for $170 and offer $100 worth of free gas. I even called them to clarify and they bold faced lied to me about the promotion. They sent the product without the gas. After calling back they sent the "free gas" a week later in the form of a coupon that allowed me to join some bizarre plan that I PAY $5 more for then buy $400 worth of gas over a 4 month period, save the receipts, send them in, then 6 weeks later get $25 worth of gas coupons sent to me. It's hard to believe that anyone that is associated with the great game of golf could pull this kind of trick. My advice . . . stay away!

    • I'm still not sure why you think lower ticket prices should encourage free to view, particularly for a Ryder Cup in the U.S. where it's broadcast on NBC, which is free to us here. The U.S. PGA reaps the benefits of a U.S. Ryder Cup. The European Tour reaps the benefits of a Euro Ryder Cup. You're missing the point. You misunderstood. Oh man. They sold out. It's as wide an exposure as they wanted to get. Given the limited quantity of tickets, your best plan to maximize profits is to sell them for the highest price. Let's say they wanted to sell 50k tickets a day. If you price the tickets at $1,000,000, the market size might be 20 people, so you might sell ten to some super-wealthy golf fan. That's $10M/day. If you price the tickets at $1, the market size is maybe 2 million people, so you'll definitely sell all 50k tickets. You'll make $50,000. If you price the tickets at, I dunno, let's say $750, your market size might be 51,000, or 75,000… but either way, you still sell all 50k tickets. You make $37,500,000. If you price the tickets at $1,000, the market size might only be 35,000. So you'd make $35,000,000. Let's say you attended the Beastie School of Economics, and you sell the tickets for $200. You sell all 50k, making a profit of $10,000,000. You're leaving $27,500,000 on the table, and the secondary market ticket resellers probably bought up all the tickets, sensing value. Simple stuff here, really. The only trick is getting the price right. Price it too high, and you won't sell out. Price it too low, and you left money on the table (which secondary market ticket resellers will sop up). I suggest re-reading the first post and this post.
    • Day 140: did a stack session.
    • Day 1: After a long practice layoff due to injury, vacation, winter darkness, and work stuff, I'm trying to start back up again. Today I just hit balls with keys from my lesson 6-ish weeks ago; neutral grip and centered turn. Gonna work with that for a few weeks, see how it goes, and then get a lesson scheduled.
    • It’s not live on free to air tv in the UK, and hasn’t been since 1995. ( I pay a subscription to Sky for generally good golf coverage). There are limited highlights on the BBC for some golf events, but that’s it. Are other/all PGA events on NBC?  Allowing ticket scalping is a systemic failure across sports and showbiz, which could be legislated against, but in the UK is not in any meaningful way. I don’t know much about the secondary market in the US or anti scalping measures.  Charging more to keep prices down is an interesting concept, in practice no doubt you are right even if It sounds a bit Catch 22  Do you think sports tickets and broadcast rights  should be sold on a purely capitalist basis, or is there an argument to say that some sports might benefit more from wider exposure and affordable access. ( golf in the US is apparently not one of these if tickets sold out at those prices so quickly)  Fans might benefit from cheaper tickets and in the UK at least, TV coverage that reaches a wider audience.
