My Member Review

I received the birdicorn tool and marker today while on my way to play a round of golf so decided to put it to the test. 

The Birdicorn tool appeared well made of anodized aluminum. It was well finished on all areas and edges were all uniformly smooth. 

The Birdicorn marker was also well made. The image etched into the marker was clean and well defined. The paint fill was well done also. 

Birdicorn marker was very effective at repairing ball marks. The portion of bottle opener helped with the ball mark repair as well. The Birdicorn seemed to be faster than my usual ball mark repair tool at repairing marks. It was also a rainy day and I used the Birdicorn to rest clubs on, which it also excelled in. The putting line drawing assist was also sufficient. Bottle opener was tested and worked as expected. My initial  concern was that the magnets in the tool to hold the marker might not be sufficient to keep the ball marker attached to the tool but after forcefully testing the tool, the marker did hold on to the tool. 

The Birdicorn is a very nice and well made tool and excels in what it was designed to do. It has a price listed on the website as $25 but on sale for $20. As well made as this tool is, I would find it a little pricey for ball mark repair tool, personally.  Now if you need all the features available in one tool, the price may not be an issue and you can't go wrong with the Birdicorn tool.

    • Day 232 4-8 Rotation work tonight. Used just a mirror for the most part. Recorded a few swings just to see where I am.   
    • Day 31 (8 Apr 26) - Worked with a coupe of kids on the school golf team on the range - then joined them for a few holes of practice play.  
    • I’m sure you know his practice schedule 🤣 also, he had a wrist injury recently. 
    • I’m going to go out on a limb and say that maybe if Jason spent less time on his clothes and more on golf he would win more.
    • So, my league starts next week, and I have a golf trip in two weeks. I am thinking no matter what I do, I will have to do my left leg and downswing turning piece. At least this turning piece helps me negate shanking the shot.  I probably shanked the foam ball about 10x in a row yesterday. Given, I was doing downswing work with not much caring about the body rotation. I was struggling to feel the same thing from two days ago. Where I was able to feel the arm piece and the turning piece working together. Yesterday, my body turn was just destroying my arms down piece.  That said, it’s not like I have a great feel for where the club is in space. Especially with how fast the downswing is. If I do the arms downswing piece with the turn piece better. I just feel those two things. Then after I am going into the finish I am like, "Oh, that was center of the clubface". I am glad the clubface found the ball. Maybe that is normal when you are trying to fix your mechanics. You are so hyper focused on the hitting the swing feel that the feel for the club is just gone.  I’ve watched YouTube videos where they talk about how correct lower-body mechanics give you the feeling of having tons of time in the downswing. I’m like, BS! there is no time. If anything, it feels faster now. 🤣 I do notice that the clubface stays more open past impact, less flippy. Not like I am trying to do that. Actually, with the downswing arm piece, I am trying to feel like I am rolling my wrist (closing the club a bit more).
