Swing Scope Summary
The Swing Scope is designed to help golfers that have over-active lower bodies in the downswing. Having an over-active lower body in the downswing leads to loss of power and inconsistency. The Swing Scope eliminates this by placing a device on the right hip that beeps if your lower body moves on the backswing to a bad position.
Is the Swing Scope effective?
There are several good and bad things about the Swing Scope. What is great about the Swing Scope is that it easy to use and won’t affect your swing while using it. It is also gives you instant feedback when your lower body gets out the ideal position.
What can be frustrating about the Swing Scope is that although it lets you know that your lower body is out of position, it doesn’t let you know what to do to fix it.
How much is the Swing Scope?
The Swing Scope can be purchased online for $79.
Is the Swing Scope a good value?
If you are having problems on the backswing with an active lower body, the Swing Scope will help you address this problem. If this is not one of your problems, then I would look for a different golf aid.

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.

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.
