I was wondering how many MGS golfers have an Orange Whip in their bags. If so, what's your opinion of the product? It seems like a good idea.

 

While on the topic, I currently own this stuff:

  • Medicus
  • Momentus
  • Speed Stick
  • Tour Striker Impact Bag

What do y'all recommend to improve your game? Any success stories, recommendations, and feedback will be greatly appreciated.

I bought one last year.....I really like it.   It's a good warmup/workout device too.   I feel like it 'forces' you to make a good smooth swing when using it.

I just used my OW last night. In fact I keep mine out on the patio and use it all the time when I'm out there. I don't carry the OW in my bag.

Two of my favorite aids have been the DST Compressor and the Pivot Pro.

I also wanted to mention the CamCaddie.. for holding your phone and recording your swing.

 

Wasn't trying to bump your post. I like this kind of stuff.

Once again, I apologize for my ignorance. I'm just getting to know the MGS site.

Quick tip for searching as it's kinda wonky some times through the site.

 

Go to google and type in "mygolfspy ______________"  insert whatever you are searching for.  It will pull up forums posts and also blog articles so hits 2 birds with one stone type of thing.  I usually get better results this way.

I just ordered a Rukket Red Head swing trainer on eBay for $50.

 

Based on reviews, it does the same thing as the Orange Whip and SKLZ Yellow Ball trainers. Plus, it matches my bag. Yeah, I know, I'm OCD...

Where do you mount the CamCaddie, PJ?

 

I assume on the front of your golf cart? If so, is that a good idea for rentals at public courses?

I posted this yesterday J. B. I even ordered one for myself.  Totaled less than $8 with s&h, it mounts to an alignment stick.   https://forum.mygolfspy.com/topic/17657-dawgdaddys-unofficial-deal-of-the-day/?p=261548

 

As far as the OP goes I have an Orange Whip that I have had for about 3 years.  I originally had a Golf Flex but the balance is much better on the Orange Whip IMO.

Swing Click (tested on MGS)

 

The Pill (GolfSpyX wears their hat, which I still WANT!)

 

DST Compressor, which is simply the BEST (also tested on MGS)

It sounds like I need to get a DST Compressor!

 

8-iron the best option?

not sure how many of you have the "swing gyde" (I have the knock-off version) but whenever I see top coaches using a training aid with students my eyes get big. Also saw a video of Nelly Korda (one of the most beautiful swings in golf!) using it

I was watching Chris Como help JR Smith with his golf swing and he used the swing gyde but turned it upside down to help with impact. I had never thought about that. 
Has anyone done this before?
