Swing Fan
Is it OK to use the Swing Fan? That's that Thing with a Golf Grip at one end and 4 fan blades at the other.

Or, maybe better, what about the weighted Dowel idea that was discussed in an earlier thread? How about a five pound bar? Could that help build Extensor Action muscle?

bucket gives a thumb down to swing fan . . . it makes the real club feel soooooo light you can't find the head.

Mike O is an expert on right forearm training . . .

I heard he was an expert with both forearms.

How about the weighted bar? You brought that up in a post awhile back but no definitive answer or conclusion. That seems to make a lot of sense.

D,

I have a 11.5 pound momentus short club, use it all the time, I love it, the danger is losing control of it. I use for slow motion start down waggles, sometimes i go through the 12 sections with it in very slow motion verifying alignments as i go. Does it help? I think it does for me!! The start down waggles are key for me and a lot of my students. I don't use the heavy one for my students, but i do have use a weighted club for their own start down waggles, usually just the regular momentus iron. I think it starts to remove a little of the downstroke blackout that is all to familiar to those who teach.

That makes a lot of sense. If it helps downstroke blackout, then it will help with Release drills, RFT, etc.

No question, just make sure that the student controls the club, not just swinging it around without control, doesn't do them any good and can cause injury!
