Been working on my swing for the last few years to get rid of the occasional dose of the shermans. And though when my timing is good it’s not too bad but otherwise it bad.
Had a chat with the pro at Nairn, Robin Fyfe and he had a look at me hit balls and immediately spotted that I had very little wrist hinge, which was making my already flattish swing very inconsistent.
He suggested this gadget called the swingyde.
It’s basically a piece of plastic that fits on to the grip of a club and helps attain wrist hinge and the correct position in the back swing and follow though.
Was very easy to fit and gives immediate feedback.
As you make your backswing the u shaped bit touches your forearm and in the follow though this should again touch your forearm making to clear L shapes.
I’ve found this to be a great help to me and had almost instant results. Over the last two years I’ve not been able to hit any balls on the range without shanking the majority. Went down the practice ground twice in the last couple of weeks and managed to hit half a dozen buckets of balls without any sign of a Sherman. It’s even good for using just around the house without a ball as you can make a proper swing knowing you have done it right or wrong.
The Swingyde come with an instruction DVD and several drills to try, which were very easy too follow.
So far I have found this piece of equipment to be invaluable as it allows me to know straight away when I’m off plain or don’t break my wrists.
I would recommend this too anyone as a training aid,
