These clubs are also designed to hit the ball when the mechanics of the golf swing are correct. Generally these hinged golf swing teaching aids include a driver and one iron. The Medicus is probably the most popular of this type of golf swing teaching aid. Depending on where you purchase your mechanical or hinged golf clubs you can expect to pay from slightly less than $100 to more than $300. Again check the Internet including eBay for the best prices.

However the real benefit to using one of the new golf swing radars is that you can check your swing consistency. Great golfers play with consistency and that is how they win tournaments. Consistency in ball speed follows proper golf swing mechanics and efficiency. These small Doppler radar units sit on the ground in front of you and measure the speed of the ball as it leaves the club face. These units will cost you about $100 on the low end and more than $350 on high end. Considering what it cost to play golf these days these are good golf swing teaching aids that will improve your game.

These are just a few of the many types of golf swing teaching aids available to the average golfer. It is really important to do your research before buying any golf swing teaching aid. Talk to your local golf pro and the people who work in your golf pro shop to see what is popular. Find out who has purchased the different teaching aids and then take the time to interview them when you see them on the course or driving range.
