Solid Stance Summary
It’s no secret that a common flaw among amateur golfers is the straightening of the back leg during the backswing. If you find yourself hitting weak low duck-hooks, odds are you are straightening your back leg. Straightening the back leg doesn’t allow you to use the momentum from your body in the downswing.
Solid Stance is a golf aid that looks similar to a leg brace. It is strapped around the leg to help you keep your leg in an athletic position throughout the swing. Solid Stance may look difficult to put on correctly, but in reality it is not that hard.
Is Solid Stance effective?
Solid Stance really does a good job at keeping that back leg flexed. What is also great about Solid Stance is that you can hit actual golf balls or even play a round with it attached.
However, there are a few flaws to Solid Stance. First of all, Solid Stance does keep the leg from straightening but it is not going to automatically teach you how to use your body’s momentum to create consistent and powerful shots. It also can get tiresome on your legs to wear because of the friction during the golf swing. Lastly, if you don’t have a problem with the straightening of the back leg, it is not going to do much for you.
How much is Solid Stance?
Solid Stance can be purchased online for $58.19.
Is Solid Stance a good value?
Solid Stance is a decent golf aid with a few pros but also a few cons. $58 is fairly expensive. You be the judge, but if you are not having problems with the straightening of the back leg, buying it would be a waste.

Golf Training Aids
The Sybervision Golf DVD is one of the best-selling golf training aids of all time. It's based on principle of muscle memory. Essentially, if you watch the "perfect" golf swing over and over again, your subconcious tells your body -- your muscles -- what to do.
The Sybervision method was discovered and developed at Stanford University. It's been endorsed by dozens of athletes from various sports. If you were a golfer in the 80's, you've undoubtedly heard of this program. If you're part of "Generation Y," such as myself, then chances are you haven't. I "discovered" it in a Golf Magazine at my Dentist's office. America's Top 100 Golf Pros voted on the best training aids of all time. Two out of the top three were Sybervision. So I decided to give it a shot and have no regrets.
For more information about the Sybervision Golf DVD, click on one of the links below.
My second pick is the Medicus Dual Hinge Driver. It helps correct two key components of a good golf swing: plane and tempo. It helps you get rid of that slice and it helps you hit the ball longer and straighter.
If you haven't seen the Medicus Driver, check out the video on the manufacturer's site.
It's essentually a typical driver with two hinges. If your takeway is off plane, the hinge breaks and you won't hit the ball. The same thing happens if your try to crush the ball, helping you perfect your tempo.
I bought my Medicus for $200 about two years ago. Since then, the prices have dropped. You can get it for about $160. They're even offering a free trial. For more info, click on the links below.
The "Simple Golf Swing" is my favorite Golf eBook available. If you're a technical learner (such as myself) and not totally lost (I was VERY lost), then this book is a great choice to help straighten out your ball flight.
I got a lot out of my "Simple Golf Swing" purchase. Not only does it detailed pictures of every step of the golf swing, but it also includes video with great side notes. Plus, it recommends dozens of great drills with video examples so you know you're doing them right. After all, only perfect practice makes perfect.
If you have the time and patience to study and truly learn the golf swing, the "Simple Golf Swing" eBook is a great choice. It's the cheapest of the three recommendation at only $47.00 and it's an instant download.

I tried the Solid Stance product and loved it! I had a major power loss straigntening my back leg on my back swing. I took me a few bucket of balls to build up the muscle memory but, now i can feel when my back leg starts to straighten. Also i bought mine online for $49.99 not the $58 you stated. An even better value.
