How improving his fitness and a new training system helped Scottie Scheffler become world’s best player

Scottie Scheffler’s incredible success over the past two seasons has been fueled by record-setting ball-striking. It’s led many to wonder what his secret is and how he’s been able to put up numbers that haven’t been seen since Tiger Woods.
Scheffler’s combination of power and accuracy explains his unmatched success since 2022. He owns eight PGA TOUR titles, including the 2022 Masters and the past two PLAYERS Championships. The 27-year-old arrives at Augusta National this week as the unquestioned favorite after back-to-back wins at the Arnold Palmer Invitational presented by Mastercard and THE PLAYERS, and a runner-up finish at the Texas Children’s Houston Open.
“Right now, he’s doing juuust fine,” said Randy Smith, Scheffler’s long-time swing coach. “... It’s really easy right now to not teach and it’s been that way, honestly, for about a year and a half.”
Scheffler led the PGA TOUR in Greens in Regulation in 2022 and 2023 and is atop that statistic again this season. This season he also leads the PGA TOUR in Strokes Gained: Approach-the-Green and Tee-to-Green after finishing first in those metrics in 2023, as well.
While Scheffler has made it look easy, there’s always a large amount of work behind the scenes that goes into such success. Scheffler is no exception. His work in the gym was key to unlocking his very best.
Getting back on track
Despite having worked with Dallas-based chiropractor and performance coach Dr. Troy Van Biezen since he was 14, like many golfers, Scheffler was more reactive in his training rather than proactive. That changed during his sophomore season at the University of Texas, when back pain forced him to withdraw from multiple tournaments.
“I think that was a wakeup call for Scottie that if you want to be a good golfer and you want to play pain-free, it’s time to start taking golf seriously and start doing a lot of things off the golf course,” Van Biezen said. “That’s kind of where it clicked. Ever since then, he’s been a beast in the gym.”

Woods, of course, was an influence. He brought an unprecedented focus on physical fitness to the PGA TOUR. It was crucial to his success and inspired many to follow his example. For Scheffler, his fitness regimen not only helps prevents further injury but also improves his flexibility, mobility, strength and endurance.
He and Van Biezen would do metabolic training, hypertrophy and strength training, and cardiovascular exercises like speedball work, skiers, rowers and Wattbike. The increased endurance paid dividends, especially in those crucial moments late on Sunday afternoons.
“We’ve just gotten to a point where I’ve been able to get rid of a lot of the aches and pains I used to deal with when I was in college,” Scheffler said, “and I’ve gotten to a place where my body I feel like is really healthy, and so we’ve been able to build some muscle and endurance from there. But it was a long journey to get to a point where I was in balance for a long enough period of time where we could actually start building a little bit of muscle.”
How GolfForever became part of Scheffler's routine
Looking to gain a further edge on the competition, Scheffler and Van Biezen also began utilizing GolfForever and its popular tool, the Swing Trainer, during off-weeks in 2021, leveraging the training regimen on TOUR for the first time ahead of the 2022 Farmers Insurance Open.
After finishing T20 at Torrey Pines, Scheffler liked how he swung the club that week, so GolfForever became part of his routine moving forward. He earned his first PGA TOUR victory weeks later at the WM Phoenix Open, starting an incredible stretch where he won four times in six starts, including the Masters, and reached No. 1 in the Official World Golf Ranking. Scheffler believes so heavily in the benefits of GolfForever that he is now an investor in the company.
How a new training system helped Scottie Scheffler become World No. 1
“Between the app and tools like the Swing Trainer, GolfForever is a great training system," said Van Biezen, who also serves as GolfForever’s Director of Performance. "It’s high reward, low risk, which is important because it has great benefits with a low risk of injury. It can deliver tough workouts if you’re someone like Scottie, but it’s personalized with some easy-to-do things that are perfect for golfers who don’t move well or are in pain. It’s a lot of core, a lot of glute, just a lot of stability stuff, integrated functional stuff.
“It’s challenging the body physically but also neurologically as well. It’s been good. I can’t say enough. It’s been a really cool thing for us.”
Stable Scheffler reaps benefits
Scheffler’s increased stability and mobility makes it easier for him to reach the desired positions in his swing. There are fewer manipulations or compensations. In fact, Smith declared “we’re working on nothing” ahead of the Texas Children’s Open. Scheffler was a putt shy of forcing a potential playoff in his quest for his third-straight PGA TOUR victory this season.
“I’ve got three things, maybe four, every time I check when I watch him hit balls,” said Smith, who started working with Scheffler when he was about 8. “I can’t think of too many times where I’ve even brought them up. … He does it automatically and goes back to doing exactly what he should be doing.
“Even if he’s off a little bit, his hands are so good. Best hands I’ve seen on a player in my life, bar none. They’re so good that they can correct any flaw he puts into the golf swing.”
Scheffler’s meticulous hard work is paying off with his training in the gym, as well.
“This offseason we didn’t really do a huge focus on anything, we just maintained what we built over the last few years,” Van Biezen said. “A little bit was more or less letting him decompress because it’s been a crazy few years with him on the PGA TOUR.”
Scheffler’s hard work in the gym helped him reach the pinnacle of golf. And stay there.

This Unique Training Aid Promises a Tour-Level Swing

When I was a kid learning the game, my coach once told me that I had to push for distance. He knew it would be a lifelong benefit for a junior golfer to learn. His key to more distance?
“Width.”
“Width” in the golf swing should allow for more power and improved ball striking. That’s the concept behind the Tour Feel.
I tested this unique training aid and brought it to the range to see what some other players thought. It’s not my favorite swing trainer but it can help some players.
What We Tried: The Tour Feel
The Tour Feel is designed to help golfers create more width in their swing. It is worn around the lead shoulder and wraps around the chest. It then connects to your lead thumb and allows you to swing and hit golf balls with the training aid in place.
Why Use Something Like The Tour Feel?
The biggest reason to invest in the Tour Feel is to gain more power in your swing. As a secondary benefit, you may find better compression and ball striking when you go through this width training process.
Who Tried It?
Britt Olizarowicz, a MyGolfSpy writer, former Class A PGA professional and scratch golfer. I love game improvement, especially any tool that can help amateur players feel what they need in their swing. My husband and my father came to the range with me to test this product.
What Is The Tour Feel?
The Tour Feel is designed to help you maintain the width of your swing. It’s a band that stretches from the lead shoulder and almost forces you to keep your arm extended as you take the club back.
If you make an early, incorrect hinge or lose the extension in the lead arm, you’ll immediately feel it with the Tour Feel on.
You can use the Tour Feel with any club. It works for everything, driver included. The tool’s goal is to allow you to focus on the sensation of extension without having to think about it from a technical point of view.
The Tour Feel works for both left- and right-handed players. When creating this device, Dan Frost set out to emulate the swing radius of elite players. The goal is to help amateurs not just see what it takes to achieve optimal power and control but to actually feel it.
Testing and Results
I don’t love swing training aids that function like contraptions. With the Tour Feel , you’ll have to watch a few videos to learn how to put it on. I know this because I tried to do it without watching a video and let’s just say it didn’t work out. Maybe I need to work on patience but I think golf is complicated enough and training aids should help simplify it.
That said, once you know how to activate the Tour Feel, it’s pretty easy to use.
I tested this along with my husband and father at the driving range. One thing I quickly learned is that my arms were kind of short for this and there is no adjustment for that on the device.
I moved up to the “difficult” level right away which wasn’t all that difficult.
At first, I started with smaller chip shots and could feel the extra width and extension. I had no problem using it for iron shots but I didn’t love the feel of it with the driver. Again, it could have just been the fit for me.
When my dad, who is a 20 handicap, tested it, he said, “It doesn’t really do anything for me. Itt just helps me feel more width.”
That’s exactly what it does. And that’s exactly what it’s supposed to do.
At the end of our testing, we agreed that we get the concept of what the Tour Feel is trying to accomplish by keeping you more extended. The question is: Does it offer enough depth as a training aid to warrant the purchase?
I’m not convinced.
Overall Impressions
Here are a few things that have stood out as I’ve worked with the Tour Feel a bit more.
- The Tour Feel is great for helping golfers hit approach shots in the 100-yard and under range. Many amateurs tend to lose extension and get more wristy in this area, and you won’t feel the need to do that.
- If you know your swing is inefficient and you need more power (but go about it in all the wrong ways), The Tour Feel is a good option.
- Maybe I take what is considered width for granted but I think you can use other training aids, like Lag Shot or Orange Whip, to get similar results.
- The Tour Feel does come in a junior size but I would invest only if your youngster is serious and needs to create some more width for more power. Otherwise, it’s just going to hang in your garage.
Who Is This For?
Golfers who struggle to create width and extension throughout the swing will benefit the most from The Tour Feel. Take some videos of your swing and see if you have extension or if your arms are bent and close to your body.
Look at any professional’s swing and you’ll see they are able to create width. That’s what the Tour Feel aims to teach.
Final Thoughts and Review
No single training aid is the perfect fit for every golfer. If you wear the Tour Feel for a few swings, you’ll feel the width concept. However, I wouldn’t invest in the product if you think you’ll only wear it for a few swings. Look for a more versatile training aid. Even The Connector, also made by Sure Golf, that can help you feel the impact position and the importance of width.

As a coach I’m always interested in the common denominators of success, the patterns, movements and intentions that sit under the hood of great players. I invented the Tour-Feel to allow golfers to experience the sensation of width all the way from takeaway to finish creating an effective, consistent swing that worked against the common narrow to wide swings that seem to be a disease, creating a nation of slicers. The feeling of width is key to creating more rotary swings with superior sequencing and the Tour-Feel does this without complication. - Dan Frost Tour-Feel Inventor & PGA Professional
Resistance Is Your Friend In Your Quest To Maximise Width
The multi-stage resistance band firmly links the lead shoulder and hand right from the outset. Why does this matter? The lead shoulder is often considered the true centre of the swing, and a long lead arm is crucial for establishing and retaining width. Perfect this bond, and you'll unlock unparalleled power, precision, and consistency.
Unlock The Fastest Skill Transfer Possible
Imagine, in just a matter of swings, harnessing the immense power of width. Tour-Feel™ isn't just a training aid; it's a game-changer. It offers an unmatched skill transfer rate, allowing you to feel the precise sensations and mechanics of a wide radius and powerful downswing. Within no time, you'll internalize what 'right' truly feels like. The best part? The unique sensation is retained once the training aid is removed, allowing your new move to seamlessly integrate into your game.
Wide -> Narrow -> Wide
What does this mean? Elite players possess a "wide-to-narrow-to-wide" swing radius. In the backswing, they stretch the lead arm and shoulder, harnessing greater power potential. As they transition into the downswing, they refine this width, creating dynamic lag. The swing concludes with a powerful and expansive follow-through, ensuring peak power, control and flawless ball striking. The Tour-Feel is designed to embed this very sensation into every golfer.

Product Description
Take Your Swing to the Next Level . Using the DownUnder Board creates resistance in the ground (i.e., greater ground force) that naturally produces better rotation and keeps you down and in the shot. The ground connection created by the DownUnder Board allows a relaxed upper body to rotate and pivot around, through, and beyond impact to the finish. It also naturally improves stance and posture, prevents swaying, prevents early extension, improves footwork, sequencing, and more.
Great for Juniors . In addition, it is really effective with juniors for another reason: because juniors typically have "happy feet," the DUB really helps them make solid contact by training them to keep a stable base of support.
Improve Your Short Game and Putting . It's also great for chipping and pitching by training a stable lower body to encourage upper body rotation. You can take any tension from your upper body by applying pressure to the DUB with your feet. Plus, it helps your aim system be square and parallel to the intended line.

On first inspection this felt like an unmanned hose and something that belonged at a trick-shot display. The other initial thought was how it looked and felt like a regular golf club apart from the whippy shaft.
The back story of the GForce 7-Iron Nxt-Gen 2022 swing trainer is that it’s been designed by PGA coach Stuart Small. When he passed his exams in 2000 he was thrown by the first lesson that he gave in that he wasn’t prepared in terms of the knowledge required. He had dismissed the biomechanics as they looked complicated but he then threw himself into the science behind the golf swing and he then developed the GForce Swing Trainers .

There is bundles of online help here to help with whatever fault that you struggle with, be it your takeaway, strike, path, shot shape etc and there are drills that you can quickly put into use with the swing trainer. The big one is the slice which is the curse for a huge percentage of golfers. The over-the-top move is generally caused by a poor transition and sequencing and the trainer prides itself in being able to help you produce a better move.
Thankfully this isn’t my poor shot but where I struggle hugely is my sequencing. Having done a biomechanics test years ago my claim to fame was being able to baffle the instructor so much that he had never before seen a sequence such as mine. Good players unwind from the ground up – I tend to rely on my hands to get me out of all sorts of poor positions and, if/when that does go wrong, my ball striking is worryingly inconsistent for a 6-handicapper.
The flexible shaft really helps you to understand the weight of the clubhead. The early shots tended to go right as the hands can’t quite ‘save’ the shot as with a normal club but, in time, you learn how not to throw yourself at the ball or flick the hands to square the clubface. Most of us can generally tell what sort of swing we’ve put on a shot and this is brilliant at exaggerating in both feel and shot shape what you know that you’ve just done. My 30-year fault is that I fail to make very much use of my torso but, with the better swings here, I produced a lot better shots.
A word too about the quality of the club itself. The best thing that you can say about it is that it’s legal for both play and practice which is very impressive for a training aid and also is a huge help for when you go back to hitting your own 7-iron – so what you learn from the trainer can be quickly transferred to your on-course game.
The original 2016 version was quite heavy so when switching from the swing trainer to a regular club it messed around with the timing of the swing because it required a different force to swing something heavy versus standard club weight. So they have brought the weight down with this new 2022 model to match that of a regular golf club which means that the transition from swing trainer to regular club was much easier and your timing was not affected.
The midsize grip is fantastic and the shots were travelling a very similar distance to a normal 7-iron. It was so satisfying that you would actually consider using it on the course as, when you get it right, it’s so easy to swing and the ball flight was certainly higher than my normal one which is very low.
What was interesting was that I lent it to a higher handicapper whose swing was fairly inconsistent and he struggled to keep it on the range to the right. An hour spent with the trainer would have done him wonders. As much as anything I would use this as the perfect warm-up aid; both to ease my body into moving again and to get some very immediate feedback about what works best in my swing.
This is a brilliant bit of kit, really clever. If you are able to put a good swing on a little backfoot punch you can pull it off, similarly I find it almost impossible to hit a high fade but this at least gave me a far better idea of what I need to do throughout the swing to make that shot happen.
Rory McIlroy is said to have used it and it’s advocated by the Pete Cowen Golf Academy. It is also the only USGA approved swing trainer so you can carry it in your bag and use it on the course which is another huge tick in its box.

Best Golf Swing Trainers in 2021, and are they any good?
Best Swing Trainers in 2021, and are they any good?
Swing trainers do not replace lessons from a solid PGA professional, some of them are very capable of providing solid information back to the golfer.
In this article we review a number of the best swing trainers available in 2021, and discuss the features and benefits.
They are a nice tool to have and can make working on certain swing changes more fun, or with a little more purpose. They can help with speed and timing, help increase speed in the club head, and a multitude of other variables. Personally I use golf training aids and find some very good and others pretty awful, so are Swing Trainers any good? Well it is a personal opinion, I personally like them and have found benefits from using swing trainers, but just go try one and see what you think.
See the below list of the best Swing Trainers and descriptions, I have put together a comparison table and description of each to try and help you make a decision.
SKLZ Gold Golf Swing Trainer 48”
SKLZ state that the trainer creates power to help you bomb your drive down the fairway and gain more distance. They have stated that the extra flex in the shaft also encourages a slight lag at the top of your back swing, establishing the ideal swing tempo, so making it a tempo trainer as well.
SKLZ also claim that the momentum in the weighted head of the club encourages the correct method of weight transfer on impact. The training aid also assists with helping the golfer with a full follow through, which teaches the golfer better form, balance, and increased power.
The swing trainer is 48” in length, has a robust polyurethane head and a flexible fiberglass shaft.
If you would like to read more about the SKLZ Golf Swing Trainer then please read my full review.
SKLZ Gold Golf Swing Trainer 40”
The SKLZ 40” swing trainer is exactly that, just the same trainer but much shorter, it is designed to be easier to use, more like a 5 wood or longer iron size.
SKLZ state, the Gold Flex golf swing trainer is designed to improve your swing tempo, your strength, and your flexibility. The exaggerated flex in the shaft will help lengthen your swing by keeping your hands and arms extended.

Orange Whip Full-Sized Swing Trainer
What is the Orange Whip Swing Trainer?
It was designed and developed by Jim Hackenberg who is PGA teaching professional. Jim stated that when he was teaching his golf students he found they were not swinging through the ball, they has a tendency to use a chopping motion.
After Jim didn’t quite make the transition to become a professional golfer on the PGA Tour, he caddied for a friend of his in the summer months. He noticed being around the other tour professionals, that they all had a great tempo and balance. When Jim returned to his teaching classes, his students were the opposite of the professionals with poor balance and tempo. He designed the Orange Whip from an old fishing rod and weight to demonstrate the correct tempo and balance, and that is how he created the Orange Whip.
The Orange whip has different lengths. The main Orange Whip trainer is 47 inches long.
When I used the Orange Whip I found it to be quite similar to the SKLZ Gold Golf Trainer, and I like the idea behind this tool (you can read my full review of the SKLZ Trainer here). I feel this product would have done a similar job to the SKLZ Gold Golf Trainer.
Jim Hackenberg has produced a video of the tempo drills for the Orange Whip, which should help you develop your tempo, balance, fitness and power.
Orange Whip Mid-Sized Swing Trainer
The Orange Whip Mid-Size is the same idea as the Orange Whip it is just 3.5” shorter, which is probably around a 3 wood length. So it makes the swing trainer more versatile for a lot more golfers, the larger swing trainer can be quite demanding.
If you struggle with the larger swing trainer then this one is worth checking out, or the even smaller Orange Whip Compact.
Orange Whip Compact Swing Trainer
Orange Whip Compact is the little brother or sister of the Orange Whip Swing Trainer, this swing trainer is 35.5”. The idea is you can use this at home in doors. It is designed to emulate a more short game iron.
Again this training aid will assist with your core muscles, and help the tempo in the golf swing .
Orange Whip Lightspeed & Orange Peel Package
The Orange Peel package included the Orange Whip Light Speed, Orange peel concave deck and power bands.
Orange Whip Lightspeed – This forty three inch speed trainer has been produced to help golfer increase swing speed through ‘over training’. The idea behind the Lightspeed swing trainer is for the golfer to make a swing, using alternate weights. Swing the Orange whip and the Lightspeed as fast as you can, which produces muscle memory and apparently should increase club head speed. This does seem to be trying to take share from the guys at super speed golf.
The Orange Peel is a concave pad or deck, the idea behind the Orange peel, it is trying to centre the core of the golfer and promote better balance. When you swing the Orange Whip light speed trainer while on the Orange Peel, it works in conjunction to keep the core of the golfer more balanced. With the concave sides, you can also train to swing on both uphill lies and downhill.
If the Orange Peel helps me to improve my posture, then I quite like the concept. Jim Hackenberg states on his video that you can use this trainer and then walk onto the first tee. I very much doubt I could, and would want to take the quite bulky Orange peel to the course. However I would use this at home to help my swing, and work on my balance.
One of the areas I do like from the Orange Whip package is the exercise routines they provide on Golf Fitness. If you are struggling with fitness, or want to build strength then I believe it is a good option for you to try. The resistance bands included are a nice addition, I have used these bands before and they really do make a difference. This Orange Peel Power Package is definitely worth considering.
PGA Tour Swing Weight and Training club
The PGA Tour swing weight and training club is a training aid that has been developed to only help right handed golfers which is a little strange. The ideas behind the swing trainer, to assist in building muscles with the weight attached to the shaft. The moulded grip is designed to help your grip and demonstrate the correct method for holding the PGA Tour swing weight and training club.
For the price it is ok, I have used one of these a few times but feel it is not as effective the Orange Whip or the SKLZ gold golf swing trainer

Heck, our favorite swing trainer, the SKLZ Gold Flex Golf Swing Warm-Up Stick , helps prevent injuries, develop our “golf swing muscles,” groove in a solid tempo, and help keep your swing “on plane” for straighter shots, all at the same time !
Let’s begin!

Even though we use various training aids to drill different areas of our swing, we’ve broken this guide down into different sub-categories of products that should help every golfer reading our list, no matter your swing goals!
1. SKLZ Gold Flex Golf Swing Trainer Warm-Up Stick ( Best Pre-Round Swing Trainer )
- Inexpensive
- Needs No Instruction
- Works on 3 Major Aspects of the Golf Swing (Fitness, Swing Plane, Tempo)
- Popular Choice Among PGA Tour Pros
- Eye-Catching / Flashy Design
The SKLZ Gold Flex Golf Swing Trainer is likely the most well-recognized selection on our list. There have been countless infomercials about this product , and it has been commonly found in PGA Tour golfer’s bags on the driving range to warm up with since its inception many years ago!
The SKLZ Gold Flex Golf Swing Trainer focuses on three things that are crucial to your golf swing performing it’s best:
- Golf Fitness (Strength, Flexibility, Mobility)
- Your Golf Swing Plane (the angle your club moves during the backswing and downswing)
- Your Golf Swing’s Tempo
Arguably the best features of the SKLZ Gold Flex Golf Swing Trainer is the fact that it requires little to no instruction to get to work on your swing, and it isn’t seen as a spare “club,” so it can be kept in your bag at all times without breaking any rules! This weighted and flexible “club-adjacent” swing trainer immediately starts stretching and loosening our “golf swing specific muscles,” like our shoulders, obliques, hips, and back after the first few swings.
Secondly, due to the SKLZ Trainer’s heavier weight, it forces our swing plane to become more “flat” which helps eliminate slices and pulled shots. When swung in a repetitive and non-stop motion 15-20 times like the creators intended, you’re grooving in a solid and repeatable tempo while also adding some muscular endurance to your “golf muscles” that will both pay massive dividends to your golf swing on the course.
One Reviewer Wrote : “Product is easy to use. After swinging 5-10 minutes a day, my driver drops right into the slot. I’m hitting straighter and farther 4han I was before I got this. I’m hoping with continued use I can work on getting a little longer off the tee.”
2. ANDINGO Golf Swing Trainer with 3 Alignment Sticks Portable Golf Training Aid (Runner-Up: Best Golf Swing Plane Trainer)
- Small and Easily-Portable
- Lightweight Yet Very Durable Design
- Includes Three 46.5 Inch Alignment Sticks
- Favorite of Tommy Fleetwood
- Slightly more expensive
Find yourself struggling with consistent hooks or slices and think your golf swing’s plane could be to blame? Have you spent hours at the driving range tinkering with your swing plane and feeling like you’re going nowhere?
Luckily for you, the ANDIGO Swing Plane Trainer is here to give you precise and immediate feedback on your swing plane and will train you to have your backswing and follow-through on the same plane for straighter shots! On top of receiving the ANDIGO Swing Plane Training apparatus, users receive three 46.5 inch alignment sticks that work with your device for more accurate feedback.
Taking your 7 iron, adjust the backswing angle to 60° for your initial reference value. Take a few swings at half speed to judge whether the club head is “outside” (above) the backswing angle or “inside” (below) the backswing angle.
The ultimate goal with this training aid is for our backswing and downswing to trace this angle we’ve created without making contact with the alignment stick on either part of our swing. If achieved, golfers will be left with a fully “on-plane” golf swing that results in straighter golf shots and less hooks or slices!
One Reviewer Wrote : “I’ve purchased a few swing training aids in the $100 price range and this one is my favorite and most used. There are many different ways to use it. Excellent swing path trainer to create good muscle memory. Helps prevent coming over the top, or even prevents being too inside out. Just change the position of the ball and alignment sticks based on whatever you’re working on.”
3. Divot Board Low Point and Swing Path Trainer (Best for Fixing Chunky and Thinned Shots)
- Provides instant feedback on swing path
- Lightweight Yet Highly Durable
- Includes Clip for Easy Transportation
- Trains Contact and Swing Path in 1 Device
- Right or Left-Handed Golfers Can Use Accurately
- Rather durable, but polyester surface does wear after some use
Tired of hitting chunky shots short or thinning shots over the green? Equally annoyed with shots ending up the perfect yardage just left or right of your target? The Divot Board Low Point and Swing Path Trainer will help you diagnose and fix these problems with ease!
This swing training tool focuses on a few critical aspects of our golf swings, including:
- Improving the “low-point” of our golf swing (the moment of impact and position of our club relating to the golf ball).
- Identifying the center of our stance and strike with our swing (with the helpful alignment tools).
- Checking our swing path to see if we’re toe-dominant, heel-dominant, or making solid center contact.
Featuring a lightweight yet highly durable construction style, the Divot Board is designed to be clipped to your golf bag and taken anywhere, whether it be the driving range (mat or grass) or the actual golf course! Thanks to the Divot Board’s dual-colored polyester surface, golfers receive immediate feedback on the precise angle of approach your golf club has to the golf ball so you can correct your swing after each shot!
After aligning your golf ball to the center circle, make your normal golf swing. Once your divot stays inside the perimeter yellow lines and starts just after the center circle, you’ve made perfect contact! Continue using the Divot Board until this type of contact becomes effortless!
One Reviewer Wrote : “Just like most beginners, I have trouble getting compression and hitting the ball first. I finally caved and got this, cost be damned! And… it works! Hallelujah! My first outing with this was maddening at first. But with patience and persistence, I eventually got it. It was like one of those hidden 3d pictures that were popular in the 90’s. Now I use it to warm up, and find myself needing it less and less. On the surface, it seems expensive. But man, totally worth it.”
4. SWINGALIGN Swing Align Golf Training Aid Bundle (Best Swing Trainer for Alignment and staying Connected)
- Not your typical swing trainer, but works
- Compliments almost every swing trainer on this list
- Great for teaching arm structure
- High quality and easy to take around
- Some struggle to put the training aid on.
Looking for a swing trainer that can complement well with any of the other training aids on this list? The Swing Align Golf Training Aid will teach you the proper swing alignment for each stage of the golf swing. If you’re someone who’s struggling with turning your body on the backswing, setting properly to the ball and your target line, or has an out-of-sync golf swing (one way to tell is if your hands are always ahead or behind your body on impact), then definitely get your hands on this.
Simply slide your arms into the arm sleeves and position the sleeves right above your elbow. From there, set up your golf ball and work the green alignment stick sitting across your arms to make them parallel and aligned to the second alignment stick on the floor (check here for a more in-depth guide).
This swing trainer is useful to almost every golfer. Especially, if you’re a self-taught golfer or someone whose hands are frequently slower than his body on the downswing. This trainer will help fix your takeaway by teaching you great arm structure between your arms and your body so that you stay connected throughout your entire swing.
One Reviewer Wrote: “Excellent feedback for set up, body position, rotation and connection. Looking forward to seeing more training videos for use in chipping, pitching, full swing and putting.”
5. SKLZ Golf Grip, Speed, and Path Trainer (Best Swing Trainer for Golfers with Limited Practice Time)
- Small Enough for Indoor & Outdoor Use
- Trains Swing Path/Grip/Swing Speed in 1 Device
- Removable Weights for Varying Swing Feels
- Inexpensive Price
- Right-handed golfers only
Do you have a busy schedule that limits the amount of time you have to practice your golf swing? You’re not alone. Thankfully, SKLZ has developed a golf swing trainer that helps you solidify a great grip , build some more swing speed, and help develop a swing path that produces power draws , all in one device.
To begin, the SKLZ 3-in-1 trainer is only 2.5 feet long, so it’s ideal for both outdoor and indoor use. Featuring a grip-handle that forces your hands in the “perfect gripping position,” this SKLZ swing trainer immediately starts working on an aspect of our swing upon holding it. (We even hold the grip without swinging to reinforce a great grip.)
Designed with removable weights in its heavy faux-head, the SKLZ 3-in-1 trainer can simulate slightly heavier iron and driver swings . It also works to loosen and strengthen golf swing-specific muscles, and clubs will feel lighter by comparison, so you’ll swing faster effortlessly.
Lastly, the SKLZ 3-in-1 swing trainer features a slight bend in the shaft near the weighted head. This slight bend forces users’ swing path to be slightly “in-to-out” (resulting in a Draw flight pattern). This is a god-send for habitual slicers of the golf ball.
One Reviewer Wrote : “Glad I have another one of these, this is a great training aid, helps me get my grip right again, along with tempo training. Helps to know that with the weight out it is the same weight as a driver so I can feel the swing weight, and put the weight back in for irons.”
6. Sheftic Golf Swing Pressure Board (Best Training Aid for Beginner Golfers)
- Designed for Indoor or Outdoor Use
- Trains Lateral Weight Shift, Trains Balance
- Grooves in Proper Weight Shift Sequence (Usually Requires Paid Lessons)
- Relatively Heavy (7.8lbs)
“My main thought (with the downswing) is to push down into the ground.” – Tiger Woods
Golfers of every skill level have struggled with “creating ground force” at some point in their playing career. While most amateur and recreational golfers think their power comes from the torque we make in the backswing, it actually comes from the ground.
One of the first lessons that should be taught to every new golfer is feeling your weight transfer towards your front leg/side during the downswing and through impact to our follow-through. The problem with this advice is most golfers are left wondering things like, “What is the correct amount?” or “What’s the proper timing of a pressure shift?”
The Sheftic Golf Swing Pressure Board primarily works through balance . Once over 50% of a golfer’s weight is on their trailing side, the board will shift to an “upright” position. At the top of the backswing (if you’re shifting your weight correctly) the board should tilt downward so the majority of your weight is now on your lead side, and the trailing side of the board is now up.
We love the Sheftic Golf Swing Pressure Board because it doesn’t work properly unless you’re making the correct weight shift. If 70+% of your weight isn’t on your leading side for the downswing and follow-through, the board won’t work correctly and you’ll be able to feel it in your feet right away.
One Reviewer Wrote : “Great product. The best way to teach the use of ground forces in the golf swing using footwork and lower body.”
7. Callaway Swing Easy Golf Swing Trainer Aid (Best Backswing Mechanics/Fundamentals Training Aid)
- Works with Right or Left-Handed Golfers
- Most Inexpensive Training Aid on Our List
- Focuses on Backswing Mechanics
- Rolls to Size of Wallet and Weighs Little to Nothing
- Focuses on Singular Aspect of the Golf Swing
Do you feel your arms become “disconnected” from your body during your backswing? Have you watched your swing on film before and thought, “Man, that doesn’t look like the pros at all!”
The Callaway Swing Easy Golf Swing Trainer is designed to force users to have perfect “one-piece backswing” mechanics and fundamentals to set their golf swing up for success from the very beginning!
The Callaway Swing Trainer forces our arms and chest/upper body to move at the same speed and stay “in sync” during the backswing. This makes it easier to square the clubface at impact for more consistency and makes sure our backswing never gets too long (causing more inconsistency of strike-quality and distance).
The Callaway Swing Easy Golf Swing Trainer has a convenient “one-size-fits-all” design and works perfectly for right or left-handed golfers. If you’d like a little more advice and helpful hints for your backswing, check out Golf Leap’s guide for “How to Execute a Godly Backswing.”
One Reviewer Wrote : “Easy to use, and fits great. Keeps my arms in and helped my swing tremendously. I keep it in the bag and use this every other range trip just to stay in the habit of keeping my arms in the correct position. Highly recommend.”
8. WINNER SPIRIT Real Swing 300 (Prevents Early Head Lift & Trains Swing Path)
- Small Design Can Be Used Anywhere
- Left or Right-Handed Golfer Applicable
- Immediate Feedback on Swing Path
- Can Feel Golf Balls Being Hit for Better Practice/Feedback
- Some say not useful for training the driver
“Keep your head down!” Advice we’ve all heard countless times, but still remains one of the hardest things to listen to. Doesn’t everybody want to know where the ball is going?!
With help from the WINNER SPIRIT Real Swing 300, golfers can practice their swing anywhere and know if they hooked it, sliced it, or hit the ball straight without lifting their head to check , thanks to Real Swing’s “golf swing circle trainer” design!
Featuring three adjustable ball height levels and a “no-battery-required” construction style, the Real Swing 300 trainer effectively gives golfers an at-home driving range in one, easy-to-transport device. Users can practice iron shots, fairway wood shots, and driver shots, both from a tee or fairway height, and with limited space since the product is so small!
Right or left-handed golfers should set up to the practice ball on the Real Swing 300 just like a normal golf shot. After making a swing and connecting with the ball, users should focus on the direction the practice ball is spinning without lifting their head . A straight shot will result in the practice ball spinning in a perfect vertical circle. Hooked shots will spin towards the right, and sliced shots will spin towards the left (for right-handed golfers).
One Review Wrote: “I hesitated to purchase this one because of some reviews below, but the quality is way better than my expectation! Basically, I can practice all the clubs, irons, wood, and driver at home. It is helpful to warm up, and check my swing before I go to the field.”
What To Look For When Shopping For Golf Swing Trainers: Variations of The Golf Swing Trainers
Golf tempo trainers.
Developing a reliable, repeatable , and smooth tempo is one of the most overlooked aspects of the golf swing for most amateur golfers. Funnily enough, tempo is something that more skilled golfers depend on each time they tee it up.
Poor swing mechanics can be masked and even fixed (to a certain degree) by having a reliable tempo. These reasons are why we’re particularly drawn toward training aids that focus on the development of a good tempo.
Tempo is also an aspect of the golf swing that can easily fall out of rhythm (if not trained regularly), making a tempo-focused training aid essential to golfers that are just beginning or routinely struggle with this swing characteristic.
On top of training tempo, training aids like the SKLZ Gold Flex Golf Swing Trainer also loosen, as well as work to strengthen golf swing specific muscles for injury prevention and less fatigue during your following rounds.
Golf Swing Speed Trainers
While we used to believe golfers were either “born with speed” or they were not, we now understand that we can train our swing and body to generate more swing speed for greater distance with all our swings.
There are a few ways to tackle “speed training:”
- Swing speed training devices (SKLZ 3-in-1 Trainer)
- Increase our mobility and flexibility (SKLZ Gold Flex Golf Swing Trainer & SKLZ 3-in-1 Trainer)
Here at Golf Leap , we’ve found the best results by focusing on both of the above speed training categories, with the majority of our attention on being consistent with the training we do. None of the training aids on our list are designed to be a “one time-use” type device, which reminds us of our favorite quote:
“Look at a stonecutter hammering away at his rock, perhaps a hundred times without as much as a crack showing in it. Yet, at the hundred and first blow, it will split in two, and I know it was not the last blow that did it, but all that had gone before.”
Additionally, many golfers have reported injuries from over-doing speed training. Weighted training aids like we’ve suggested in our list don’t allow us to swing at our fullest capacity, so you’ll be less likely to injure yourself if you use one of those.
Golf Swing Path/Plane Trainers
“Swing Path” and “Swing Plane” (different words for the same thing) relating to the golf swing are very trendy to talk about these days.
Professional golfers like Matt Wolff and Jim Furyk made unique “home-grown” swing planes popular, and while we hoped the swing plane focus would be left behind, if anything, the path/plane talk has gotten more of the limelight in recent years!
What is the “Swing Path” / “Swing Plane”?
- Most simply put, your golf swing plane/path is the angle and “path” your club head travels during the backswing and through impact to the follow-through.
As you hopefully interpreted from the incredibly unorthodox swingers we mentioned, every golfer’s swing path/plane is unique to their individual swing , and the best swing path trainers will help you find and practice your ideal swing path.
Tools like the ANDIGO Swing Plane Trainer and the WINNER SPIRIT Real Swing 300 let golfers train their swing path with immediate feedback and enable us to develop the proper muscle memory to “groove in” a more repeatable swing path.
FAQ: Best Golf Swing Trainers
Do golf swing trainers work.
Without a doubt, the proper golf swing trainers for your golf swing will help you reach your goals faster.
We like comparing golf swing trainers to having a “Fast-Pass” at an amusement park. You’ll get to by-pass a lot of the learning curve (waiting-times) with the golf swing by equipping yourself with the right training aids!
What is the “best” golf swing trainer?
While the answer to this question is tricky to answer (since every golfer will have different swing trainer needs), we still believe the best tool on our list is the SKLZ Gold Flex Golf Swing Trainer. Being able to work on key fundamentals like flexibility, mobility, tempo, swing plane, and “golf muscle” strength with one tool is a god-send to most golfers.
What golf swing trainers do the pros use?
Pros use TONS of training aids, but the most popular ones we see at events or in the bags/hands of PGA Tour pros are the SKLZ Gold Flex Golf Swing Trainer and tools like the ANDIGO Swing Plane Trainer. If you think about it, these tools totally make sense for a high level professional golfer, because they focus on the two aspects of the golf swing that are the easiest to get out of sync– tempo and swing path.
Tommy Fleetwood went viral a few weeks ago for combining a swing plane trainer with a small block on the driving range, leaving little to no room for error while he practiced on the range.
The Verdict: Best Golf Swing Trainers
If you’re looking to improve your game and tired of aimlessly practicing without seeing any results, one of the best golf swing trainers on our list should help you reach your goals.
We feel that the SKLZ Gold Flex Golf Swing Trainer is the best golf swing trainer because it does so many things at once, including loosening our muscles pre-round, strengthening our “golf swing specific muscles” for greater endurance in the future, helps “flatten” your swing plane to reduce slices, and grooves in a consistent and repeatable tempo.
That being said, don’t be afraid to experiment or even combine multiple training aids from our list. We have found great success combining the Divot Board with Swing Plane Trainer so we can get immediate feedback on the quality of our swing plane and turf-interaction at the same time!

"the strongest most flexible golf shaft in the world, trusted on PGA tour since 2016"
Quickly detect swing flaws and fix them on your own, eliminate destructive swing thoughts and turn them into feelings. The GForce Driver is designed for developing more speed, helping you to perfectly time the transition and can easily add 20-30 yards to your drives.

- What's the difference between NXT-GEN and the earlier GFORCE models?
The shaft which is now lighter to previous versions, now weighing the same as a normal golf shaft, so the whole club is perfectly weighted like a normal club, all club heads are standard weight just like previous models, and the shaft is exactly the same flex as previous models, giving you the valuable instant feedback and easier to switch learned feelings back over to your normal club, also the grooves and face in the 7 iron, wedge and putter are CNC milled and conform to the rules of golf and are USGA / R&A standard.
(*7 Iron, Wedge, Putter & Driver Shaft are conforming to the rules of golf)
NXT-GEN models are lighter than earlier heavier GFORCE models to closely match the weight of the latest premium golf clubs, for improved feel. No other swing trainer in the world is this advanced for hitting balls with, its like a regular premium golf club fitted with a Super Flexible Shaft for feedback on your swing.
- I've seen similar training aids, how is this different?
GFORCE is the ORIGINAL hittable swing training aid, trusted on tour since 2016, with 5* Reviews and now with the development of NXT-GEN models, there is nothing that comes close to it in quality, weight, feel or performance.
Other training aids on the market are not USGA approved and are much HEAVIER. NXT-GEN was designed to be the same weight and feel as standard golf club, so it's much easier for you to transfer the learnings from your training club to your normal playing club. With anything heavier it would be like learning two entirely different swings and cause more swing issues.
A Copycat of a GFORCE model is almost 50% heavier than the equivalent GFORCE 7 iron and more than 60% heavier than the GFORCE training Wedge, so it would be much harder to transfer any learnings to your regular club. Switching back to your regular club would be like swinging a pool noodle causing your arms to swing too fast which would be a disaster.

YES - Top tour coach Pete Cowen and his team at the Pete Cowen Golf Academy, coach the finest tour players, helping them to find their winning 'delivery' position in the golf swing and use all the GFORCE swing trainers in practice sessions with the players to achieve it.
Pete is coach to Champion Rory McIlroy as well as being part of many others success such as Graeme McDowell, Louis Oosthuizen, Sergio García, Darren Clarke, Henrik Stenson, Gary Woodland, Brooks Koepka former world leader Lee Westwood and many others.

- What can I expect to benefit from using a GFORCE Training Aid?
The short answer is that it will make learning and progressing golf easier, you will make swing improvements quicker and spend less time and money spent on lessons PLUS you don’t even need to leave the home to practice! Customers reviews have shown improving driving distances by 20+ yards, being more accurate and consistent in their shots, dropping handicaps and lowering scores!
You will learn through DOING and FEEL - learning your true swing will become instinctive and fun!
GFORCE will help you improve every element of your golf swing so that you will be confident enough to play at any course. You will create consistently powerful golf swings, more solid centred strikes and better control to the greens and lower your scores. The GFORCE will remove 'game robbing' swing thoughts and replace them with 'feelings,"
The secret is the flexible GForce shaft - it warns you when you are swinging out of tempo, rhythm and when your transition is too quick. It reprimands you with "jerkiness" when you rush the club head and helps you smooth the transition down and through for the perfect golf swing
Feedback from the shaft will tell you when its right or wrong. So you can learn to find your ideal swing rhythm and tempo in a few swings, fine tune the sequencing in your downswing and sense when its right to time the transition, resulting in a powerful delivery position which creates club head speed and solid centred strike with little effort so you get more distance and more greens
The GFORCE shaft lets you know if you are doing it wrong by over flexing at points and feeling Jerky and unbalanced throughout the swing. Also the ball flight gives you valuable feedback and the troubleshooting videos will help you out there.
Don't just take our work for it....Read the fantastic 5* customer REVIEWS on how golfers have improved tempo, rhythm, timing, transition and release.....and how they have improved their golf swing and dropping scores since using GFORCE swing trainer.
You'll Wish You Got One Years Ago!

The Driver shaft and Putter is suitable for both left and right handed.
- Can I hit golf balls with GFORCE?
Yes its a normal golf club like any other top quality brand, the USGA Grooves mean you can legally use the 7 Iron, Wedge, Putter and Driver Shaft, they conform to the rules of golf approved by the USGA & R&A.

- Can I replace the grip with my preferred grip?
The grip is custom made for the GForce shaft, so a normal grip won't fit. Replacement grips are available when you need to replace it - so just get in touch [email protected]
- Which GForce Swing Trainer should I start with first?
It depends on the area of game you are looking to improve first as each swing trainer is designed to help a specific area of your golf game from putting, short game, mid game and driving.
If you are fairly new to golf or not sure where to start to improve your golf game, I recommend starting with the GForce 7 iron swing trainer to develop swing path, tempo and rhythm and correct sequencing. Your iron play makes up the biggest chunk of your golf game so the GForce Swing Trainer 7 iron is perfect to use to you can get good at golf

"Swing Align works for all areas of your game from full swing to short game"
I bought the Goal Post because I'm completely confused as to how I should putt. So far, this thing is fantastic, because it's allowing me to sort out my technique. Some of the technique keys I was using on the course this year were clearly wrong for me, because I couldn't consistently hit the ball through the posts. Now, I'm building a new stroke around the set up and stroke methoss that allow me to putt through the posts. It's ended my confusion, which I really love!
Swing Align’s selection of training aids are some of the best on the market and ones that I use with my clients daily. I have enjoyed the collaboration with the company in terms of what I have discovered with PGA Tour players using the latest technology and Swing Aligns creation of tools, based on this data, that will help my clients feel the proper movement simply and quickly. I look forward to continue to work with them to create the best products which helps create the best players.
I use the Swing Align to help my students see their upper body alignment at address and feel an arm and body connection in the backswing. The alignment rod also provides a terrific visual for my clients. They can immediately see if they are rolling their arms in the backswing, or taking it back correctly.
Excellent training tool. Great quality and customer service
Definitely helping get my arms in the correct position at the top to make a great inside out swing. Very impressed!
My whole golf game has changed as of Monday when my fellow golfers said they were looking at a new golfer. At 84 I say Hoooah in Ranger talk.
I played golf today my buddies noticed a big difference in my swing. I wish I had the Swing Align a long time ago. Great training device. Be well.
Been caddying for 25 years on the PGA Tour and Teach Golf on my weeks off. So important to set up correctly and stay connected. Swing align helps you become more consistent. Great product!
Swing Align puts my arms in the right position to hit more solid shots.
Third one - a gift
For the first time I realized how unaligned my shoulders were! I gained real distance using it!
Adding the Swing Align with my current lesson packages has been eye-opening for every student who looks at me funny when I strap them in, and then they make a proper swing and watch the ball go straight and in the air, better than any of their old swings...It has been a game changer for my students and I plan to apply for affiliate status and sell Swing Align to everyone who wants to practice on their own...it's that good.
Super easy to use and to engrain the feeling of a square set up.
Makes the golf swing much easier to repeat!!
So I am a golf performance coach at a top Junior Golf Academy. I have tried this product on some of my students and I am really impressed with the ease of use and immediate feedback. Definitely a great training aid to use at any level. Job well done!!
I love this piece of equipment. It really works to make your take away a one piece motion. And the instant feedback on alignment and turn is just what you need to dial in your swing. Get this! I am expecting to drop 5 shots because of it.
If the rod is out of line, so are you! Swing Align makes setting up square as easy as looking down.
Seeing is believing. Get the rod to perpendicular at the top and you are ready to make a great downswing.

Masters 2024: Prize money payouts at Augusta National
Adam Glanzman
It says something about what it means to compete in the Masters that players aren’t thinking twice about the fact they have no idea what the prize money payouts will be this week at Augusta National before teeing off in the opening round. Club officials won't officially announce the 2024 purse until after a cut is made in the tournament. Mind you, the chance to win a green jacket, a spot in the Champions Locker Room and a lifetime exemption into the major are enough reward to make it worth everybody’s while to play.
That said, there is a little uncertainty as to what the prize money payout will be when it is formally announced. A year ago, Masters officials increased the overall purse to $18 million, a $3 million jump from 2022 and $6 million more than in 2021. But that overall number still lags behind the $20 million purses offered in the PGA Tour’s new signature events as well as the $20 million paydays being played for individually on the LIV Golf circuit.
RELATED: A brief history of the Masters prize money payout
Currently, the top paying men’s major championship is the U.S. Open, with the USGA also paying $20 million in prize money during last year’s championship at LACC. The PGA Championship bumped up its purse last year at Oak Hill to $17.5 million and the Open Championship paid $16.5 million at Royal Liverpool in 2023. All the majors are currently dwarfed by the Players Championship, which paid out $25 million in March with winner Scottie Scheffler earning $4.5 million.
Below is that payouts from the 2023 Masters. We’ll update this post when the 2024 Masters prize money payouts are official.
