[Orange Whip LightSpeed -- Quick Take.]

If that's your only option, it's better than nothing I guess .. you could still get benefit from swinging it. In fact, it may be a good "compromise" solution! Fyi, I'm 5' 6" and feel that for me the Compact version more closely simulates an iron swing.

Is there any chance that seller can special order any of the other OW trainers for you..?

I  see. One reason I was considering the midsize is that I saw a website for the Australian distributor of OW and they were recommending the full size trainer for people at least 6’0”. Add your thoughts on the Compact trainer and it’s looking like maybe it is a good compromise for now. 

The seller is not really a distributor and seems like he just had maybe an extra so I doubt although I can try to ask.

Thanks for the input, helps a lot.

Thinking of having a Duo shipped all the way to Southeast Asia. Can the Lightspeed simulate as a compact for irons Trainer?

After looking around, shipping fees could really increase the cost for me. I did find a local seller who only has OW midsize available. Anyone knows if that could work for me instead of the regular sized (I’m 5’10”). I saw that the website officially lists the midsize as “for men, to work on iron swing” but I was hoping I could also use it for “driver swing”. Thanks.

Nice - welcome to this sometimes frustrating but fun game!

Disclaimer - I am NOT a teaching pro, but what worked for me, to help me work on my swing, is the Regular and the Compact trainers. My thinking is "build the foundation" and then work on adding speed; so I think of the Light Speed as an add-on.

Either way good luck and enjoy!

Thanks, it is fun and frustrating and I’m enjoying it.

Thanks for the input also, that will be something to consider.

Wow hope the shipping charge is not too crazy! Considering how popular the OW is, you'd think they might set up a global distribution.

But on your question - IMO, no ... the Light Speed vs the Compact version of the trainer really are two different "tools" and function differently. 

I find an advantage in having all three. If that's not possible, though, consider what's more important for you to work on; for example, it was discussed earlier in this thread that the standard OW Trainer can help you build swing speed so pairing it with a Compact can let you work on different swing types.

Hope that helps?

Not even direct shipping to where I am, will be finding a way around. But if it helps me with my game (just 4 months playing), should be worth it.

Thanks for this, it will definitely help with my decision.

Thx for mentioning that .. I need to go back and re-watch all of their vids, and then develop a good workout/practice routine for myself to follow over the Winter!

And - great deal on the Duo pack .. good shopping
