Tips From The Pros On Swing Training Aids
Training tip from Mark Lemon Aiport National 848 4500 suggests using donut weights on an old driver to simulate a one foot tee. Start with one weight performing three sets of 10 full swings with a minute rest between sets, then max effort on the last 10. After about 30 days, progress to three sets of 17 swings with the last 47 at full throttle to improve distance and accuracy like Sarazen and Watson.
