LongridgeGolf Power Band Swing Practice Aid

I was pleasantly surprised by the robust fabrication of this item given the relatively low price. Unlike some low-cost golf aids I've bought in this past, this is a proper bit of kit and it gives you the impression it will take a lot of wear.From a use standpoint, once you get used to fiddling both arms down into the band and selecting clubs with your elbows essentially tied together, it really does do what it says on the tin.I'm a single figure golfer who hits it a long way but with poor accuracy; poor connection with my arms has always been an issue.This device really helps you keep your arms moving as one unit. In fact it quickly became apparent that, unless I improved my posture and using my chest and arms together for more of a one-piece takeaway, that I could barely get a decent strike on the ball.Initially it was slightly uncomfortable and frustrating, but that was my fault. I had problems that needed ironing out and this really helped.In the first session I really struggled to hit any proper full shots. However, what happened on my next visit to the range was the real eye opener.On my return the following day, hitting balls without the Power Band, the improvements in posture, takeaway, connection and rhythm immediately translated into improved ball striking. My subsequent visit a couple of days later showed this was no coincidence.Since buying the band I've only used it occasionally for 10-20 shots at a time to reinforce the general feeling of connection and compactness promoted by the tension of the device.Without being too over the top, I can honestly say it's the best value for money golf aid I've bought in terms of cost, quality, ease of use and effectiveness. It's super simple and super effective and I'd bet that anyone from a 6 to a 36 handicap could benefit from hitting a few balls using the Power Band.PS. No incentive for me to promote this product. I usually only ever write annoyed reviews, but the value I got from this product was too good to leave unmentioned.

This gadget has tightened up my swing no end .My iron play has improved and i am now the par 3 king with my buddies.If my swing goes of i put it on and take a few practice swings and it gets me back on track. A bargain.

I bought this after remembering a few times at the driving range strangers kept throwing remarks about my elbows doing the funky chicken! As usual when I tried to keep my elbows in and by my side everything else went wrong. I thought I'd buy this, as it was cheap and I thought it's something that wouldn't hurt too much if it didn't work.Wow is the results; the more my elbows try to flap it pulls on the other arm instantly reminding me that my swing is going wayward. it really works. I've been playing for about 3 years and never had a lesson (pride prevents me!) this has helped me keep my elbows close and bend my elbows this has given me so much power and I'm NOT straining and hurting my body.I use it at the beginning of a session and then if I start to fall apart the Power band goes straight back on. This has helped me develop my swing so much and yes I'm swinging easier and the ball is going straighter and far further. If I'd bought this when I first began I think it would have advance my golf by two years no kidding. I bought the SKLZ Tempo Grip Trainer two years ago and I'm using that only effectively now! As it will not tell you if you have a fundamentally flawed swing; oh the time wasted is a lesson learned harshly!Go and buy the Power Band now it really is a fantastic training aid and cheap as chips and cheaper than a golf lesson too!

This is a useful Aid , for Chipping and Pitching Practice . Alas TOO Tight and Restrictive for the Full Swing Practice . I could not Breath properly and it added Strain to my Lower Back ?

Exactly what I ordered. Delivered efficiently

The Powerband was recommended and tried with me by a golf pro in lessons to stop my high right elbow. It felt funny (that's the point) but made an instant diffrence. Didn't buy in the pro shop as no funds at the time; however worth the delay as 1/3 price at Amazon. All I have to do is make it stick!!

This is very good for the cost, as it works well on half swings keep those arms and hands working together, and yes would recommend to all, worth using and checking your swing occasionally.

If you have played golf for a while then you will have heard about the all-important connection between the chest, shoulders and arms. The Power Band really helps you get that connected feeling by squeezing your arms in. The model in the picture is not actually wearing the band properly because their elbows are splayed out instead of being tucked in. The great thing with this aide is that you can swing a club with it and really feel how the key connection works. If you have an 'armsy' swing then this will come as a bit of a shock. Better still, you can use the band to improve your pitching, chipping and even putting. Highly recommended.
