Top-5 Indoor Golf Training Tools
There are a few consistent things in this world – gravity, Tiger Woods on Sunday, and Mother Nature impacting your golf game.
What can you do to continue to focus on your golf training when Mother Nature prevents you from doing it outside? Below are the indoor training tools that you should be sure are on your Christmas list:
Perfect Practice | $169 | Buy on Perfect Practice
Putting is the easiest thing to practice in your home during bad weather. The Perfect Practice putting mat is a high-quality putting tool to stick in your house to dial in your putting stroke. The mat has great lines to help with alignment, stroke distance and putter path. The standard version also has a smaller hole to utilize which will make the actual cup look like a basketball hoop during your next round.
PuttOut Pressure Trainer | $39 | Buy on PuttOut Golf
Another good putting device to help you with your stoke at home that is 75% cheaper than the Perfect Practice mat. Enhance the setup by using masking tape to draw your own lines on the ground to help with alignment, stroke distance and putter path as well. Note, you want to ensure you have a good surface at home to utilize this device. Putting on shaggy carpets is like practicing your putting in a bunker.
Impact Bag | $29 | Buy SKLZ Bag on Amazon
There is nothing more important than the impact position in the golf swing. The Impact Bag is the perfect tool to dial in your impact position using various drills. (Also, very productive anger release if needed.) Practice your impact in the garage or basement during inclement weather. Please do check ceiling heights before becoming an Instagram Meme though.
SuperSpeed Sticks | $199 | Buy on SuperSpeed Golf
Your swing speed directly correlates to the distance you hit a golf ball. Use the offseason to try to give your swing speed a boost. Based on marketing material, 50 swings per day done 2-3 days per week can boost your swing speed by 5-8%. Note that this can also be very productive for anger management.
Books | $16 | Buy on Amazon
Spend time reading about the history of golf with some fun, engaging books. Start with The Greatest Game Ever Played by Mark Frost and choose your own adventure from that point. This is a great way to stay in tune with the game and continue to grow your passion for the game.
Try to avoid getting in the YouTube swing video trap. The worst thing you can is start thinking about your right elbow in the downswing constantly. Let's build confidence, have fun and recharge during these types of days.
