I had used this item with an instructor and it was easy to see and feel the correct position of the hands/arms in the backswing. He said it was the only aide he recommends for purchase, even though there are many, many types on the market. I can see why this is all you need to correct a misalignment of the hands in the backswing.
It is easy to attach to the club for practice, using it is easy and after a short time, there is no need to continue as the hand position becomes automatic…
Money well spent!

This is the first review I have ever given a golf product. My swing was slowly self destructing this year. I developed a fade that was getting worse and worse. After realizing that it was not the clubs, I tried a couple different training aids. Finally, I saw the reviews on the swingyde. I ordered it and tried it. At first, it was not correcting my swing and then I realized that I was not following the directions.
After watching the DVD and reading the instructions again, I finally figured out what I was doing wrong. Shortly after, I was swinging perfectly.
In a nutshell, this device puts you in a great position on the takeaway and then also puts you in a perfect position at the finish. For those of us who have trouble “releasing the club”, this is the answer. After 20 minutes, my muscles started memorizing the swing path. I have now been using it daily for 20 minutes a night inside (which is very relaxing after the kids go to bed). This swingyde is the real deal and I am telling my family and friends about it.
I had a question and emailed the creator of the swingyde in Australia and he emailed me back the same day. He is a great guy and very helpful. I can’t recommend it enough!

Lets face it, US$30.00 for what looks like a cheap piece of plastic. Not very convincing. This is what I thought over and over. Until finally I decided to try it. What the heck, with my scores getting higher than the price of oil, it would be the cheapest of the gimmicks out there. When the package arrived, I even laughed…This is it?. However, I took it to to the driving range a few times over the week, and it was really simple to use. Whats even more impressing is that it works!! I started off just practicing my chips and pitching shots. On my first day on the course after having only practiced with the device 3 times at the range, my swing showed improvement. That day I shaved 10 strokes from my previous score on the same course. With the use of this device to warm up on the practice range, I have a fresh image of what my swing should be before beginning the round. It seems to work very well. I highly recommend it.

I found the Swingyde to be an effective training aid, especially as it pertains to the swing plane and the follow-through. I used it with a six-iron and enjoyed hitting balls with it. But changing the Swingyde to another club was a bit cumbersome. I did not care to use the Swingyde with the rubberband as I found it a bit too confining and snug. My rating is due to the two negatives I have stated, eventhough I feel that it is effective and helpful in reinforcing the swing plane and encouraging a good follow-through.

Maybe the cost of producing this training device does not even exceed a dollar. So, basically when one buys it one pays for the golfing improvement one gets out of it.
Is it worth the money? The answer is a big YES. Among the priceless benefits one gets, the device makes the formation of the habit of executing what Jack Nicklaus calls in his Golf My Way classic as an “ideal top-of-the-swing clubface position” a lot easier. It also ingrains the technique of not overswinging the club, by defining the angle formed by the left arm and the shaft of the golf club at the top of the backswing.
Highly recommended product. One of the best golf training devices out there. The benefits easily beat buying extremely pricey golf sets.
