    This tool will not correct my slightly over the top swing path I have. To suggest that it will is simply a money grab. Good for you calling out some of the big KZread names who are obviously benefiting financially from selling these off of their KZread channels.

    @@wrenc7738 Their own promo video had -13 path.... I get that most people my not know what that means, but it is DRASTICALLY out-to-in over the top. It doesn't do anything for path, the click means nothing, and if they didn't market is as a fix for that issue then these videos probably wouldn't exist. I also probably would have not purchased it at all (like many others). Thanks for the support!, Cheers!

    Dude, you made me laugh so hard...I couldn't stop for minutes!!!! I am saying this with the admission that I also bought this thing and I do use it sometimes for warm up before a round , mainly for the grip. I think it's a smart tool for its grip-feature and I never really swing it for the click (because then all my attention goes toward hearing the click and swing paths and angles go out the window). I think the whole magnet - clicking thing is gimmicky, but the rest of the club is good for gripping purposes. Your video definitely watch - worthy and I appreciate your sense of humor!!! PS. the way you made the endorsers wrong (about the clicking ) was just genius! Funny as hell . 🤣😂🤣😂🤣

    @@GolfOnTap You are exactly right on that. I have wasted so much money on some of these local coach/instructors only to find out they are not that great of an instructor. Last guy I used had a special for 4 lessons and basically realized it was a waste of my time after the first lesson. He basically watched me swing said not too bad and mostly talked the entire lesson. Worthless. Wish I had access to some of these KZread instructors like Steve Johnson, Danny Maude, and I would say Eric Cogorno but now after seeing him promote this stick I dunno anymore! I guess they all take the money in the end.

    I love this and the first video! Definitely keep it going! I didn’t, for 1 second, think you were trying to “debunk” or put down the straight stick, like you had a bias or pre-conceived notion. If it had performed like they say, you would have said that. So I appreciate the honest review. The internet is full of naysayers who would love nothing more than to criticize others no matter what. The other thing is, golf is a hard game. There is no one tool that fixes all the problems. And there is no quick fix that turns a 20 handicapper into a five handicapper in a month. I’m pretty much like you I’m a 14 handicap. I hit some good iron shots, but for the most part, I hit it off the toe. I leave it short, or I’m off-line. It’s taken me a long time to get to where I’m at, with lessons and practice. I will get better and there are some very good tools that give me feedback so I know what to work on and improve. You’re doing a great job, keep up the good work and thanks!

Fairly decent with my irons. Struggle with my driver. Going over the top a lot. Learning how to work with my shoulders in different directions. Promotes different swing paths.

    I’m looking for a swing aid for release; your’s was first I watched on this product as I was going back and forth between this and the Lag Shot. Dam I’m glad I did! I can see after I grabbed my friends how it does release regardless of the swing (and mine sucks). The issue with this aid isn’t that I won’t work, it is that the swing is too fast (anyones swing) to actually SEE the release point. Hence there can be no learning without a slow mo camera. What good is that?! I need this to practice on my own and get visual cues….not set up AV equipment. Tried the Lag Shot as well and realized that tempo it can help with, but release it cannot either. Don’t defend your video. I’d rather an HONEST, UNVARNISHED review to save my money for a lesson. Golf is expensive enough. Thanks for the help. This video is why I subscribed to you.

    I can tell you mine do not click as easily as you make it click. I’m looking for solid contact (ball first). My problem is early extension and chicken wing. If this helps me get rid of the chicken wing and make ball first contact on a consistent basis I’ll be happy. I can work on swing plane. Heck, if I was a 13 handicap I’d just play golf 😅. Maybe test it with a beginner or 20+ handicap? Anyway, appreciate the review!

    What I liked most about this video is that you represent the average mid or high-handicap golfer. This is the target population for this golf aid. If it isn't working for you after you went and bought the Straight Stick, why would I expect it to work for me? You clearly demonstrated that this club does not fulfill the claims being made by a lot of the pros. The sad part is that so many of the folks we follow on YT are recommending this, and it makes me wonder if they are more in it for themselves rather than those trying to learn the game and improve. I appreciate your honesty, and your demo of the club was hilarious. Great job!

I’m sure there’s something to getting the click to match up with impact but that’s not going to matter too much hitting straight if you’re not straight.

    Thanks, even with timing the click I'm very skeptical. The "speed settings" are all one inch apart from 60 - 100 mph... like did they crunch the numbers or have some type of data backing up that that is the exact distance needed to have proper "timing or compression" in the golf swing. It seems odd that it would just be lines one inch apart across all ranges of swing speeds.... I don't know... I'm just some idiot on KZread. Cheers!

    It is! It does what is claims to do by giving you tactile feedback on your swing plane and body turn. It takes a little getting used to and figuring out what you need to do to stop the "wobble," but when you do, it is so gratifying and rewarding. Daily practices with the GEM will most definitely improve my iron play. I plan to construct the homemade version and use it with several clubs since I prefer attaching it to an old club and not having to remove it every ten swings or so to hit a ball. The homemade version by Migmatis Golf kzread.info/dash/bejne/fWqt0qOMaJWWnNo.html can be made for under 15 dollars, and except for looks, will do the job just as well, I think.

I just couldn’t devote the time and space to use it. I wound up giving it away. Thus far I’m still a left-handed slicer.
