A playing mate has mentioned this piece of golf tech. Basically it’s fitted to the shaft, all legal and improves performance, both distance and dispersion.
Has anyone come across it or know of any experience?

That sounds to good to be true.

I didn't find the youtube review persuasive - or the hefty price:

If it was that easy I am sure the shaft manufacturer would insert them.

Yes, they were made in the South of England I believe. Initially aimed at putters where the idea was to stop off centre hits being bad. The insert fitted inside the shaft and acted as a dampener to vibrations caused by a bad strike. I had an old Ping Anser fitted with one and it just made it a little dead as far as the strike was concerned.

From memory they were pushing people to have them fitted in other clubs to improve the strike but it never took off. I recall they fitted them in our county team's clubs as an experiment but no idea if it was a success.

I have one fitted to my milled Odyssey #9 protype putter. It is supposed to give me help on off centre putts. AG were pushing them years back and I was persuaded to let them stick it in the putter. Think it was half price at the time. Not sure it does anything noticeable. I did think they had stopped trading a while back

Where did you hear that? The fella is a member at my place, I’ll ask him if you like?

From an AG store manager

He may be misinformed, as you may be.

Didn’t think you frequented American golf? (Why delete the post?)

I had one fitted in a driver. Did It make a difference. Who knows. The theory is sound but you’d have to play with it for ages to track any difference IMO.

Oooooh I love a bit of post deleting drama.

Which AG store was it Homer?

Just texted Dave. He’s not that chuffed about fellas saying he’s stopped trading ???. For the record they are very much open for business. Doing a lot in the states currently

Says I can give the OP his no if required.

Maybe he should pop into the Camberley AG too

I believe they were in AG a few years ago, not for a significant time though. Be interesting to know when homie had his fitted and when he was misinformed

By how much ?

Whats the theory ?

Hitting it in the centre of the putter is likely to be far more effective!

I did, and unless not clicking into the right pages, there is no explanation of the technology nor data of tests results. There is just advertising claims with no backup : increases ball speed, reduces vibration, higher energy transfer, etc.
Admit 'vibration' is a new one to me. Have never heard the likes of 'He didnt quite catch that one, must have been a little too much vibration in his shaft'.
