Straight Arm Sleeve

Straight Arm Sleeve Summary

The Straight Arm Sleeve is a golf aid that is worn on the left arm. The purpose of the sleeve is to keep the left arm straight throughout the swing. A common problem among high-handicap golfers is the breakdown of the left arm through impact. This leads to inconsistency and often times huge slices.

Is the Straight Arm Sleeve effective?

If your left arm is constantly bending throughout your swing, the Straight Arm Sleeve can help you correct this. A great thing about the Sleeve is the ability to hit golf balls while having the Sleeve on. This helps ingrain the straight left arm into your muscle memory and makes transitioning what you have practiced to the golf course much easier.

A possible negative aspect of the Sleeve is the discomfort of wearing it for an extended period of time. Compounding this problem is that for the Sleeve to make a real difference extended practice is required.

How much is the Straight Arm Sleeve?

The Straight Arm Sleeve can be purchased online for $38.95.

Is the Straight Arm Sleeve a good value?

The Straight Arm Sleeve is a slightly above average golf aid that can help with the consistency of your swing. Don’t expect miracles but with dedication and hard work, you should be able to get rid of some of those awful slices.

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.

Dave Hill and I used a inflated sleeve in 1960. Is this the same aid?

I think I would use an XL size.
