I bought the GolfGaffer as my golf is pretty poor, and I need any advantage I can get. I saw the GolfGaffer being demonstrated on a YouTube channel, and thought it looked like it could be hugely beneficial. I was right.
When I attended my golf lesson, I mentioned that I’d just bought it to the pro, half expecting him to deride it as a gimmick. On the contrary, he said it was a great idea, and could I bring it along for my next lesson. I duly did, and it was utilised for each and every swing.
It proved to be hugely successful, as not only did it help me begin to dial in my swing, it was also a huge boon to the pro. He was able to use it to reinforce just exactly what my club path looked like, and the effect it was having upon the ball. Consequently, he could then offer advice, and obtain instant feedback. He’s now asked me to bring it along for all of my remaining lessons.
Regarding the quality, the box is a thing of beauty. Feels almost like a presentation box. The mat itself is reassuringly rugged, with the rubber backing having a very solid, weighty feel. The sequins display an absolute path, and fully encourage one to take a divot. Something which I had struggled with before now. If I were to have a very slight criticism, it is that some of the sequins flip over and display the wrong side occasionally. I guess this is inevitable, given that there are thousands of them, and it’s not the end of the world. Just my OCD kicking in. All in all, the best golf aid I’ve bought to date, apart from a net.
Highly recommended!
