***Unofficial Review - Golf Forever Swing Trainer***


Recommended Posts

Alright MGS, time for another "unofficial" review!  This time on one that most are well aware of and have seen posted all over the internet with Scottie's face as the spokesman.

As a golfer who plays 200 plus rounds a year and also has flexibility issues, one of my big goals is to really focus on stretching and getting rid of the soreness I wake up with almost daily.  I have been looking at this equipment for some time now and finally had some credits that needed to be used, I decided to jump at the opportunity and purchased the kit.  

Something to keep in mind before following along on this journey with me, is that this equipment is not cheap.  You can purchase the package you see above for the low low price of $199.

In order to utilize their system, you must pay a yearly membership of $199.  They do offer a free 30-day access pass but you will have to put in your CC info in order to gain access. 

I have scoured the interwebs looking for "free" content and have found a handful of exercises, but the company does a great job of blocking this content from the masses.  I will admit, this is impressive, but also terrifies me on the end results and spending my hard-earned money.    So, here we are, signed up for the yearly membership and will be jumping in headfirst to see what results I get from this system.

UNBOXING

I received my package yesterday while I was out playing my round and found it in the office when I returned home.  They do a great job at having a place for everything in the bag, with each piece being able to be locked in with a Velcro strap and a fancy case to carry it all around.

Don't judge the grass on the putting green.... we have had some rain this week and haven't hit the vacuum yet today....

The product seems to be very well built, and I don't think I will have to worry about it falling apart.  

I will be adding more soon on some of the App and initial setup/exercises.

Looks like an interesting system.  I have always been wary of the cost being doubled with the yearly membership fee for the "rest" of the package that rightly comes from an app that the company can keep current as updated and refined to reflect the latest improvements in the app, program, and provide proprietary communications with customers who decided what was offered is worth the commitment to the device, process, and concept.  This is my perspective I will be using at my Point of View regarding your test.  Best wishes for a good unofficial test and review! 👍

It's all lies I tell you, everywhere the golf ball comes to rest! ⛳

It was my biggest dilemma as well on making the overall purchase.  Even though I got the equipment with credit the yearly membership was the hardest part.  I will say, if we look at other "swing trainers" in the space, many charge a monthly/yearly membership.  

I am sure that I could do the free 30 day and have plenty of the routines down to make it "work" for my needs, but then I wouldn't have much to review.... haha

I have committed to the year purchase.

What the minimum height needed for this? Would 8 foot ceilings work?

I have 9ft and haven't come close to ever hitting anything. It has a door strap and it locks in at waist level.
