ProSendr…

[acatalano32]

Anyone have time with this training aid and its protocol yet? 

[Goober]

My buddy bought one. And he swears by it. The YouTube videos on it sound promising

Planning to order one today.

They have one at HQ and I have tried it very quickly.   It seemed to do what it intended but would like more time with one.   Hoping that they do some kind of lab test or let me come in after testing ends to try it out.    My initial negative was I struggled to get the Velcro wrapped around my wrist.  My left hand isn’t that coordinated

I was going to say, I don’t remember you having forearms to match your calves….

Well, I ordered it.  Should have it mid next-week.  Guess it will be unofficial review time…

Does the ProSendr essentially accomplish the same things/goals as the Trailhand GSnap from George Gankas? Or are those products quite different?

So I have absolutely zero familiarity with the Trailhead GSnap beyond the 30 seconds I just spent looking at it online.  This picture really struck me though...

I'm 100% speculating, but that pic suggests a device that's looking to force you into a certain position.  In my limited (but positive so far) experience with the ProSENDR, I can tell you that the Sean Foley/David Woods training videos place a lot of emphasis on you doing the work and you creating the positions, and that's what they espouse as the pathway to actually learning the movement.

I do plan to do an unofficial review once I get a decent amount of reps and rounds under my belt since buying it, but so far I'm a fan of the ProSENDR.  I'm a halfway decent ball striker, but I do get across the line and "over-hinged" at the top of my backswing, and I often am guilty of a very upper-body heavy hands & arms swing.  See that little lip that nearly covers my finger (in the second pic) when I get my trail wrist into flexion and into the cradle?

That effectively prevents that over-hinging move, and I find I pivot and turn my hips more as a result.  Once I was more deliberate about clearing my hips and making an in-sequence "ground up" swing when I took this to the range (and it's very easy to practice with, obviously), I saw a clear benefit to my ball-striking.

Again, I hope to do an unofficial review in the future.  I haven't offered much in feedback yet because I've only scratched the surface...haven't started to use the compression sphere at all.  (The blue doggy toy thing.). But so far, I have to say...money well spent.

Hope this helps answer you in some way.

And nice flatstick in your signature block, by the way.  Big fan of Edel lately, for obvious reasons...

Love my two Edel putters. I actually was fitted for the 1.0 but grabbed the 4.0 off eBay super cheap. Can never decide between the two. 
 

for the trailhand gsnap - I have it and have used it in the past but have never used the ProSendr or seen it in person. The gsnap doesn’t force anything but I could see how it looks like it pulls or pressures you into a position in the pictures. But in essence, it makes a loud snap noise once your wrist gets into position - you try to bend your wrist to the outside of your forearm. And then it snaps again when your wrist goes back to a more flat position or the other way. The pulley device on it actually allows you to customize it where the audible snap will occur at different angles so if you want less hinge or more you can adjust accordingly. Hopefully I explained that well

I bought one, and have used it a few times over the past couple of weeks. I love it so far. When I have it on, I flush absolutely everything. Especially when I use the little ball that comes with it. When I take it off, I make some good swings, and some bad ones. Haven't had it long enough to completely ingrain it into my swing, but I'm hoping that with enough use, it will ingrain the proper feels enough to hold up on the course.

I actually love mine and found it helped me A: not overswing as much and  B: gave me good feels as far as getting my wrists in good positions at multiple swing points. I wear it every time I'm at the range, and sometimes I use the dog toy ball too. I think its probably exorbitantly over priced for what it is, but it helped my swing out more than anything else I have tried. So I would say it's worth it. I think the fact that it doesn't bind you up in some weird position and instead encourages you to get to good positions on your own works better. Don't waste your money on any of the extra videos they sell...waste of time and money. The free protocol videos are very good though.

Have on and like it a lot.  I mostly use it with just the compression sphere, for my specific needs its the most helpful part of the device!
