Momentus Swing Trainer Iron $79.96 The MOMENTUS is a revolutionary swing trainer that incorporates a patented technology, whereby the clubshaft embodies most of the weight which is evenly distributed throughout the length of the shaft. The reason this is so beneficial in a practice club is because as a golfer swings the MOMENTUS, the evenly weighted shaft generates momentum. The momentum causes the club to swing along a balanced and proper swing plane. Through repetitions with the MOMENTUS, a golfer ingrains the feel for swinging the club on-plane. This leads to a drastic improvement in consistency and clubhead speed.The momentum of the shaft swings the club, so a golfer's muscles are stretched by swinging the trainer. Additional flexibility and strength are benefits also gained from swinging the MOMENTUS. It is an excellent club to use for warming up prior to playing a round of golf.

Golf Full Swing Practice Drills: Bring You in the Game

The golf full swing is made up of several related movements (or positions) that together form a unified whole. These movements include the backswing, the downswing, impact and follow through. Every one of these movements work together to achieve a successful golf shot. To fully develop your full swing, you should incorporate practice drills that hone each movement.

The following are a few of our favorite golf practice drills for each of the movements of the full golf swing.

Backswing Synchronization Drill

BENEFITS: Synchronizes hands, arms, torso, shoulders and hips in backswing. Establishes proper body rotation, rhythm and tempo throughout the full swing.                                  .
1.Take a longer club. Set up with butt of club in center of chest. Extend arms and grip the club down the shaft.
2.Slowly take backswing to hip level with club head, hands, arms, torso, shoulders and hips synchronized.  Return to starting position and repeat drill to ingrain feeling of synchronized turn in backswing.

Downswing Transition Drill

BENEFITS: Encourages complete backswing and aids transition from backswing to downswing in full swing. Establishes good impact position, weight transfer and follow-through throughout the full swing.

1.Perform drill at half-speed pausing at key checkpoints. Tee up ball, make full backswing and pause at top of backswing for 2 seconds.
2.Check that full shoulder turn 90°; hip turn 30 to 45°; left arm straight; 80% of weight is on inside of right foot; right knee flexed.
3.Initiate downswing by shifting weight left which leads the hips, arms and shoulders to unwind through impact.
4.Swing to finish position.

Impact Bag Drill

BENEFITS: Emphasizes proper impact position and feel of solid impact in full swing. Establishes good body rotation and weight transfer throughout the full swing.

1.Place an "impact bag" or golf bag on ground at point of club face to ball impact. Assume and freeze impact position. Press against bag to feel resistance.
2.Take club back halfway until butt of club faces target line; hold 3 seconds.
3.Initiate downswing slowly, synchronizing hip rotation and weight shift to impact.
4.Freeze impact position.
5.Repeat steps 1 through 4 for 10 repetitions.
6.Once complete, hit 10 range balls; repeat "impact drill" if necessary.

Follow Through Split Hands Drill
