With that accent everything sounds cool

I could never give Sean foley that much money

Are there still discount codes valid for the prosendr?

I doubt it, but the 10% off code was PRELAUNCH

Hi all,

 

My Prosendr was delivered last week, and I had some time to mess around with it at the house without hitting balls. I will give Sean Foley and David Woods credit, they developed a premium training aid when it comes to materials. The carbon fiber wrist cradle padded with memory foam is probably the most comfortable and easy to wear training aid I have used compared to the smart ball, flex click, and any of the G-Box products. The training aid is very intuitive to use. Your trigger finger (index finger on your trail hand) lays into the wrist cradle a certain way and it will give you the feel you need to understand how neutral wrist conditions at different points of the swing feels.

 

I am excited to go hit balls with this, but honestly just rehearsing swings in my backyard and feeling where the aid wants you to be was helpful. I went out and played 9 holes lastnight after rehearsing feels with the prosendr, and my ballstriking was above average compared to where I normally am. (My GHIN is an 8.3 but my irons can be shaky at times)

 

For people looking to neutralize their wrist conditions, eliminate early extension, and lower your dynamic loft at impact, this aid seems like it is the unicorn in the training aid space. Yes I agree the price is steep, and I was skeptical, but after a few sessions with it, I can feel the difference. 

 

The compression sphere or the glorified doggie chew toy is also helpful in keeping connection with your arms and develop width in your swing. Think of this piece as a smart ball that you do not wear around your neck. I actually enjoy the compression sphere better than the smart ball because the rubber material is pliable, and not inflated. I also like that you can move it up and down on the wrist cuff depending on what feels comfortable for you.

 

Again, these are my initial thoughts and impressions so far. Obviously training aids are only worth what you get out of them. I think that if you were on the fence of buying one, it might be worth while to bite the bullet and order it. I ended up selling my G-Box and shallower, as well as my Tour Striker products because this is an aid that marries all of those into one. The portability and premium build quality will have this in my bag for a long time. 

 

Cheers!

anyone jump into the advanced protocols yet?  I got mine yesterday and was a bit disappointed that the advanced protocols were behind another paywall.  probably my fault for not reading through the details before purchase.

 

I see a lot of parallels between the teachings Sean and David are promoting with what I see from @MonteScheinblum and the AMG guys.

Just good marketing. We’ll give you “this” when you buy the product, but if you want the real juice, it’s gonna cost ya.

Lol a 170$ training aid and the protocols are even more money. I'm all for coaches trying to make money but that's ridiculous.

[manima1]

I made the purchase after watching the TXG video, I generally trust their content and this aid seemed like a great / logical way to implement better moves in the golf swing.

 

Received mine this week and just making swings with hit, I can 100% see this making a difference in my game this year.  Really reinforces “good” habits I’ve implemented at times in my backswing, and this really reinforces it. 

 

Steep price no doubt, but if you can afford it it’s a quality tool and very promising to help your game.  Excited to see how this affects things on the course this year.

A student brought one in, and I tried it very briefly. I interlock, and my left index finger kept hitting the edge of the ProSENDR.

 

Has anyone else had a similar experience? I have larger hands for my size, but I'm only 5'10" and I teach people who can easily palm a basketball, etc.

I bit the bullet on the advanced protocols.  They aren’t additional drills like the first 5 protocols.  It’s more like an in depth mind dump from Sean on how the swing works and how the ProSendr can help.  Saw more parallels with what @MonteScheinblum teaches.  I’m not sure it’s worth it if you already follow Monte’s work.

That's what I'm thinking for a fraction of the price too.

 

I wanted to update anyone interested and tell them that I purchased the Flex Click, and I can’t imagine the ProSENDR being much better if at all.  It is much better than their earlier version, and all the others before it, and I would recommend it as a fine alternative.

More options of use, too. That’s not always good, though. Can be confusing for some.

Very true sir. 

[casey_0507]

Anyone who bought this find the strap to be too short?  I can barely get it Velcro'd and I don't have that fat of wrists, haha feels like it needs to be 1-2" longer minimum

[moptop]

I hate how the strap fastens, it needs a loop pull the strap through to tighten it down better and easier.

Just get a Greg Norman "Secret" trainer and use it without the finger strap.

you couldn't get the carbon fiber pattern if you did that.

Good point, can anyone think of any reason not to?

I was just kidding around. I've never used either, it looks like the greg norman one just goes over your index finger. If you don't use the strap then I'm not sure how easy it would be to slot your finger back into it during the swing. I don't address the ball with that much right wrist extension.

I decided to buy one myself, but it's pre-launch so it may be a while before I get one.  It's pricey, but I like the concept of it and the protocol vids that go along with it.  I like my HackMotion, but I struggle with getting my hands and wrists to pull down too much right after transition.  

 

I will say that when I've been on Tour driving ranges since the pandemic this is something that is worked on a by a lot of guys (getting the clubhead behind the hands at p6, turn & rip the hands up and left to deliver the clubhead to the ball).

 

I'll post my thoughts and progress on it when I get it.

Hey Richie.

 

Just wondering how you're getting on with it? Currently on the fence about getting one.

[PickItUpGolf]

I've ordered one, no idea when it will get here yet.

I just started implementing the desired wrist condition myself after watching a few vids on YouTube, and wanted something to help drill it in more, so it seemed like just the thing for the job to me.

I also have the smart ball, and find it's just awkward, so I like to idea of the squishy chew toy over the inflatible football.

Would be even better if it squeeked as you compressed a perfectly struck iron shot, but maybe that can be V2.

 

Will return with my full thoughts and a review when I've got it, and had a chance to try it out properly etc.

[EDWARDSR]

I’ve had my prosendr for about 5 weeks now. Those feels and positions are definitely my North Star. Really starting to hit the ball like I’ve never hit it before with the ProSendr on my wrist and struggling to get the motor memory with it off (I know it’s going to take much more work). This weekend I played and for the front nine I had it off and shot 9 over 45 and was hitting it all over the yard trying to find my feels. Back 9 I put the ProSendr on and shot 2 under 34! Felt really good to know that the positions and feels are what I need to strive for!

I just listed mine for sale in the classifieds.  I think its a fine piece of equipment, I just have other priorities to work on in my swing at the moment.  

[DubDub]

Just ordered one myself. Hoping it will help me from being soooo steep on the downswing.

[golfarb1]

Most  top golfers have more right wrist extension at impact than they had at setup. 
Aids such as the Prosendr , Norman Secret Tac/tic wrist , Precision Impact  all purport to improve this right wrist extension .

Some very credible internet pros such as 

Rob Cheney and Eric Cogorno have waxed euphoric about the consistency of their strike when using the Precision Impact,  for example 

But the question comes up whether golfers will improve their right wrist extension when NOT using these aids.

 

I do know one thing - if golfers think they can change motor patterns while making full length , full speed swings 

they are deceiving themselves

I have a short initial review: My short game has seen a massive improvement.

 

I have only had 2 sessions with it, one at the range and one just chipping around my yard.

 

I was struggling to find my technique in my short game, so after watching their short game video (one you pay an extra $20 for), I grabbed a wedge and went and practiced for about an hour, and started striking it so much better.

 

That alone shaved 12 strokes off my score from my 1st round of the year, to my second, and I shot the exact same score the following round.

 

I've not had enough practice with it yet for irons, but my striking seems so much better, like the reply above, I need more practice.

 

My old swing/pattern lacked rotation and the prosendr forces me to rotate and when I do it properly, I am getting better strikes.

 

Overall so far I think the money was well spent, I'll report back again with more details and stuff when I've been able to give this tool a lot more time and effort, but just the chipping improvements has been worth the investment for me so far.

What?!

[slalomdude]

anymore feedback from users who have had to actually paid for one, lots of pros and prominent teaching pros talking it up (most of whom will have been given one)
