impact bags

[socky]

I know what the correct impact position is but don't seem to be be able to put that on a ball. Has anybody worked with an impact bag to help this?

If so, did it help or is it just another load of rubbish used to part golfers from their cash?

would be my view :smirk:

I found it worked for me but since moving to a flat I don't have the space to use it

worth a try, but don't waste money buying one. A hessian sack with a few pounds of sand should do the trick. I know a few coaches who use them regularly.

Had one. Waste of time and money.

Used one during a lesson a while back, as g_mulligan says a sand bag or similar will do the same job at a fraction of the price.

I don't really understand how they work. Just because I can hit a heavy weighted bag with my club how does that translate to how you hit a ball?

^^^^ Exactly.

I must be missing the point, do you hit them on a full swing? If you do I can't imagine it will do your clubs much good or your joints for that matter. The sudden stop can't be good, or as I wrote am I missing something?

Need some new wrists after using them

The idea is for people who get too wristy in the swing, at impact your hands would be ahead of the club head not behind it, its for that purpose
