| Your Swing Master should only be used at 50-60%
of your normal swing speed. HOW
TO HOLD YOUR SWING MASTER
The Swing Master Golf Swing Trainer should be held so that the bottom
of the club kicks upwards at the bottom. The words SWING
MASTER (printed on the side of the chamber) should face to your
right with the weight measurements facing your left. This applies to both
right and left-handed golfers.
Fill with water to your own personal level and adjust
to suit your comfort. We recommend that you begin with the lower weights
until your golf muscles adapt to the practice exercises you are performing
or the weight that best suits the specific drill being performed.
Follow the sequence below to FEEL
the benefits of the Swing Master.
LOAD
The water should settle (momentarily) in the shaft-end
of the club at the top of the swing (this acts as a tempo trainer by slowing
down your back swing) loading the energy for the down swing.
RETAIN
Retain the angle of the club to keep the water in
the shaft-end of the club until your wrists begin to unhinge. This will
bring your club down on the ball and eliminate a casting swing, which
can throw you off your swing plane and lose valuable club head speed.
RELEASE
Listen for and FEEL the release as it happens. Your
wrists should release (be fully extended) at the point of impact (the
ball) where the clubface will be fully squared. You should HEAR and FEEL
the water rush to the end of the chamber as your wrists are released (unhinged).
Regular practice will get you squaring the clubface every time giving
you longer, straighter shots.
FOLLOW-THROUGH
The weight of the water will pull your swing (arms)
through the impact area and assist you in transferring your weight through
to complete your swing.
WHAT IF YOU DO NOT HEAR ANYTHING?
If you do not hear anything this means the water
is not transferring inside the chamber and is trapped in the chamber.
This can occur for two reasons.
- If you take the club past parallel at the top of
your back swing the water will transfer to the bottom end of the club
rather than loading in the top shaft end of the club. To correct this
make sure you keep the club more upright at the top of your back swing
so the water loads properly.
- Your tempo is too fast. If this occurs then the water
is trapped in the end of the chamber and it does not have time to transfer
properly as the swing is too fast. To eliminate this slow your swing
down and concentrate on allowing the water to load in the chamber at
the top of your back swing before beginning your down swing.
Adjust the weight of your Swing Master to suit the exercise
you are practicing.
Increase the weight of your Swing Master only as your
strength and flexibility increases.
