5 Training Aids That Are Worth Your Money

best golf training aids

Over the last year, I’ve done a lot of testing and I wanted to feature the best golf training aids that I routinely use in my practice sessions. I believe these products have helped me to become a better golfer. The training aid market is crowded, but these five companies offer products that are easy to use but more importantly will make your practice sessions more meaningful.

Editor’s Note – we have updated this article since it first published, and added some other training aids we recommend at the end of the article.

    Great website thank you. Any chance you could cobble together a package of the 5 training aids with delivery for addicts in Australia. We struggle to get gear sent here without prohibitive costs. Could be an other bow to your string!

    Thanks for the kind words Andrew. I know it’s hard to get certain products internationally, certainly something to think about!

    Hello –

    I have a ‘ flaw ‘ during my golf swing that no swing aid has addressed to my knowledge. I would like to be in contact with a company that is involved in the manufacturing of swing aids. I believe it will be a win win for the manufacturer and all golfers that have this ‘ flaw ‘ in their swing.

    Thanks so much for your time,

    Roy B.
