Pure Ball Striker Training Aid....

Great post. The Pure Ball Striker is a fantastic tool

not really sure from the site how it works. How does it work to maintain angle?

I find that taking thumb and fore finger off club (bottom hand) does the same thing.It forces you to use your body rotation to square up club

This training device senses the individuals feeling of Clubhead Lag Pressure. The angles that you maybe referring to are released! The pressure is maintained throughtout the motion. The Clubhead Lag Pressure is misunderstood, it is the feeling of the lagging clubhead not the holding of angles. Sustain the clubhead lag pressure and sustain the line of compression. The line of compression starts at impact and goes through to separation.

Sustain the line of compression and control your power!

Mr. Hogan talks about this HERE you may find more information here. Have any question you may PM me I am happy to help.

This is an outstanding drill we use it in our golf schools. However, the Pure Ball Striker is not the same thing as taking the index finger and thumb off club.

Although it is still a great drill!

I love the PBS too....honestly use it every day....the true secret to the game.....when the shaft is stressed by weight of a clubhead resisting a change of direction or other velocity source the pressure is felt in your right hand index finger and should be maintained to produce a constant rate of acceleration and a solid shot....this is why swinging heavy clubs produces more clubhead speed for alot of folks...it increases the pressure on your right hand index finger due to the increased weight and if you keep that same amount of high pressure with a normal driver w/ a 65 gram shaft it will produce faster speed...got to keep that pressure there until the ball is gone.

This pressure(secret) doesn't have to be isolated to your right index finger....some feel it in their left armpit....some their right hand pressing on to their left hand thump....and others in the last three fingers of their left hand....or all of the above....it is recommended to feel it and direct it with your right index finger because the benefits of plane tracing of the right forearm and index finger are quite beneficial.

If you maintain a clubhead lag pressure point....have clubface control with your left wrist....and trace your sweetspot through the ball....let me know before we make the bets :rolleyes:

Doc,

You said it very well!

I just ordered one....I cant wait to try it out

Hi Jeff,

Can you give fellow wrxers a better deal on shipping?

6.95 seems a bit much for something that prob cost less than a dollar to ship

I also have a PBS and use it every practice session. I would recommend it to every golfer striving to get better. Jeff was very helpful with drills that he teaches his students. :rolleyes:

The guys have pretty much covered it. But like I said in my original post. IT does not work to maintain your angle. It teaches you the feeling neccessary. You must have pressure point #3 loaded (trigger finger pressure point) in order to get the desired impact position, and this training aid teaches you how to feel and use that pressure point.

If you maintain a clubhead lag pressure point....have clubface control with your left wrist....and trace your sweetspot through the ball....let me know before we make the bets :clapping:

Bring your wallet boss :birthday:

Worked with my PBS today....it also occured to me that when you use the device correctly you get the added benefit of feeling more of the right palm/left thumb (PP1 for the machiners) pressure point.

Great point it does help with #1 pressure point as well as #3 PP. This is a great to device for both Hitters and Swingers.

I too noticed an enhanced feeling with PP#1. Added bonus in my book. But the work it does with PP#3 still takes the cake for me. Good observation.

Once the player arrives at the top of their backswing they can have a good start-down waggle and deliver the Pure Ball Striker towards the bottom of the arc.

It is a golfing impartive to have clubhead lag pressure and this clubhead lag pressure can be illusive. However, once the player can locate it, this pressure can be Loaded, Stored and Maintained creating better ball strikes.

Perfectly said. I found that once I was able to locate it, I was able to do all of the above better and with more understainding of how they each work (load, store, and maintain).

Is this training aid for both righties and lefties (it appears so) or are there different versions?

Thanks

this training aid actually looks interesting up till now the only swing aid i have bought was the speed stick.

Yea it should be ambidextrous. You put it on the right side of the shaft for right handers, so it would naturally go on the left side for leftys.

Well, I just ordered one. Was kinda "surprised" that the shipping cost was $6.95 for such a small looking item. Here's hoping that this item can really help me out with my golf swing ("specially" with my dreaded FADE to SLICE problems... fingers crossed!)

Great question! Yes this device is univeral can be used for both right and left handed players. The Pure Ball Striker can be used on all clubs from putter through driver.

I think you will be very happy with you buy. If you have any question once you receive your Pure Ball Striker just PM me.

Thanx for the encouraging words Mr. Evans. Hopefully I can figure IT out w/o having to pester u about it.

I quickly figured out that to him it is not pestering at all. He actually enjoys helping. Don't be shy, because used correctly this tool can help alot!

Was tempted to buy it, but turns out you can make one from tin foil that works great

That is correct! The first prototype was made out of tin foil. However, I could not get anyone to buy a piece of tin foil and I was using it in my golf instruction at the rate of $95.00 per hour.

Not sure about your point? Do you know something that we don't? Did you come up with the tin foil idea yourself? BTW Jeff is willing to help others do you have the answers about clubhead lag pressure? If so can you help us understand it better?

No I was just saying that while yes its a great product, if you want you can make your own out of tin foil for about 10 cents that gets the same feeling, I think Jeff's product is great but i was just adding to the thread the fact that you can make one and get the feeling of lag pressure without paying 15 dollars+S/H which sucks if you are shipping internationally
