You can find a single plastic step stool at most hardware stores.

Thanks. Both good ideas.

Thanks. I am considering getting one. I'll have to figure out something to use as a platform.

For a real challenge, try the BOSU Balance Trainer from www.fitnessquest.com. Click on BOSU in the task bar. They've been at the PGA Show the past couple of years. Trust me, you won't be moving your head around a lot with this baby!

I'll give it a look. Thanks.

Yoda,
As you might remember from the Links seminar last summer, swaying is probably my biggest swing fault. Will this product help?

That speed chain looks dangerous as heck. Isn't the Speed Stik a safer alternative?

Not if you do it right. Speed chain is great for loading, storing, and release.
Feel of lag, pivot, rotational componants, many more.

Speed stick has no clubhead feel, sweetspot feel, long....don't like it.

Hi Blackjack,

I remember your action as if yesterday -- and have it on my computer! -- and the BOSU® absolutely will help.

I bought mine at the PGA Show last year -- it's under $100 but still not cheap -- and you can't stay aboard this baby if you Sway. The ol' Center of Gravity stays put or else! I feel it also helps build those mission critical 'balance muscles' so necessary for the stability of Zone One (Body Control). I now use it a couple of minutes several times a week while swinging a weighted Momentus Club in a very controlled 12-5-1/2/3 Action.

After stepping down from the BOSU®, keeping that Pivot Center fixed is a piece of cake!

P.S. We obviously don't sell the BOSU®, but if anybody is truly interested in it, PM me and I'll call them and push some sort of LBG discount.

I have one and believe it is a good product. I got it last year, but due to some back issues(from beforehand), I was reluctant to go full bore. Since working with it over winter as well as having 4 months free of back pain, have been able to get my swing speed up to 120mph, from about 108 this time last year.

My trainer has acquired 4 of these, and 4 torso burners, for his PT, and for his clients. He is a BIG believer!!! His reasoning apart from a 10 mph increase in one of the clients' swing speeds(104 - 114), is that it is 'the best thing out there' for efficient motor learning. That is, training to increase your swing speed is best done at similiar speeds you expect to swing the golf club at.

I also contend that it is a decent means to eliminating an over the top move in the golf swing as the chain will 'catch' if you make that move. So, if that's what you want...not good for Slammin Sam or K.J ...

Now, about that clubface...

12mph is BIG INCREASE in speed. I wouldn't say that is the average. Unless you are simply outta shape and your speed just goes down that much. For instance you had back pain which probably seriously hindered your speed.
