A
system of golf swing training aids widely used by PGA and LPGA instructors
through out the major golf schools around the world. Every golfer will
appreciate the Tac-Tic golf swing trainer with its patented click device,
alerting them to exactly where and when you are breaking down during
your swing.
THE WRIST TAC-TIC
It's
been written and said by all the great teachers and players that the
"moment of truth" in golf is at "impact". Great
players all look slightly different from each other, when they swing
the club, but at impact they look incredibly similar to one another.
At impact, their lead wrist is flat, allowing them to deliver the clubhead
squarely and powerfully with a great deal of consistency. Impact is
where better players and less accomplished players can look very different
from each other. Often less accomplished players break down at
impact, cupping their lead wrist, losing power early and decreasing
their accuracy. When a player releases the club properly through
impact while wearing the WRIST Tactic, there is no "click". The
Tactic "clicks" when a player breaks down, by cupping their
lead wrist at impact. The greatest advantage in using the WRIST
Tactic is its application is not limited to impact during the full swing,
but also can be used while practicing, putting, chipping and pitching.
THE ELBOW TAC-TIC
The elbow
Tactic was designed to give the same type of feedback to a player who
breaks down at the elbow. When you watch the more powerful and
consistent players on tour, it is evident that they keep their lead
arm fully extended during the backswing and throughout the impact position.
Simply put, the wider the arc of the arm swing, the more power generated
through the clubhead. Many players have tried to keep their lead
arm extended during their swing, but fail because they cannot feel the
arc, unaware of a break down at the elbow. When a player swings
with the ELBOW Tactic on the lead arm, they are made aware of a break
down in the elbow by the sound of a "click". By practicing
with the ELBOW Tactic, a player is given the feedback necessary to help
them keep their lead arm extended.
Another very useful application of the ELBOW Tactic is to use it on
the right arm. Many players misunderstand the proper position
of the right arm throughout the golf swing. Many golfers actually
try to keep their right arm close to the body during the backswing,
narrowing their swing arc end, limiting their power, distance and accuracy.
The right arm should extend away from the body, beginning the bend midway
back then reaching a right angle at the top of the backswing.
With the ELBOW Tactic on the right arm, a player should hear the click
just after the midway back point, reaching the top of the backswing.
The ELBOW Tactic used on either arm will educate a player as to what
an extended arm feels like thus enabling the player to achieve a more
powerful and consistent golf swing.
THE ANKLE TAC-TIC
The ankle Tactic was designed to give the same feedback to a player
who sways the lower body like a tennis player and breaks down the right
ankle. The ANKLE Tactic "clicks" when the ankle bends.
This will cause the player to loose power from the coil and slice the
ball.
The lower
body is the foundation to a powerful and consistent golf swing.
The lateral hip movement (swaying on the lower body) weakens a player's
foundations. Weight transferring to the outside at the right (back)
foot is a result of swaying.
Practicing with the ankle Tactic will teach a player to keep their weight
on the inside of the right (back) and get rid of their sway. Once a
player has learned to keep a solid lower body foundation they can build
a powerful golf swing.
THE
PUTTER BUBBLE TAC-TIC
TAC-TIC Putter
Bubble is for improving the putting stroke of the golfer. The device
is comprised of a hemisphere, which is affixed to the blade of the golfer's
putter by an adhesive substance. During the putting stroke the hemisphere
strikes the golf ball, rather than the flat blade of the putter, and
a strike not precise with the center line of the golf ball will result
in an off line movement of the golf ball.
The TAC-TIC Putter Bubble requires the putting stroke, performed by
the golfer, to be absolutely square to the golf ball, being struck by
the golfer, and thus training the golfer to develop a precise putting
technique. The objective of the golfer is to make the golf ball go in
a straight line off of the "putter bubble". Putting to a target or golf
hole is not necessary for practice using this device. However, the device
may be used to on the golf green where the golfer may desire to practice
putting to a hole or a target.
The TAC-TIC Putter Bubble could also be used in assisting the golfer
in selecting a putter that would be more suited for the golfer's putting
stance, style, and stroke. Affixing the "putter bubble" to various putters
under consideration for purchase, by the golfer, the device could indicate
to the golfer which club best conforms to the golfer's stroke.
Another collateral benefit of the TAC-TIC Putter Bubble is training
the golfer to focus on the exact center of the golf ball being struck
while using the teaching aid. This concentration will be extended to
golf swings other than just the putting stroke. The TAC-TIC Putter Bubble
may be reused a number of times when it is replaced after use on the
paper backing original to this device. The invention may be conveniently
carried in the golf bag or on the person of the golfer.
THE
TEMPO
Teaches the
correct wrist position during your newly acquired slower backswing.
Patented internal slide weight lets you know if you are releasing the
clubhead early or just at the right time. Instant feedback and repetition
teaches (1) a slow deliberate backswing, (2) correct cocking of the
wrists and (3) the correct releasing of the hands and clubhead on the
downswing. Use in your home, office or on the golf course. It's "Practice
away from Practice". Creates brain/muscle memory of the correct
swing techniques.
THE
RIGHT KNEE TAC-TIC
If one were to ask America's top 100 golf instructors what would be
the most common swing error they would undoubtedly say the all too common
reverse weight shift. A reverse weight shift is the result of an unstable
foundation. Visualize a person chopping down a tree. They would
cut the tree on the side in which they wanted it to fall. The tree
will always fall to the side in which it is cut. Liken that to a golfer.
If a player's right (back) leg does not remain flexed, his or her weight
falls towards the left (forward). The resulting "tree falling"
motion is a reverse weight shift.
During a golf swing, the right knee becomes the pivot point for the
backswing and launching pad for the downswing. When the right
knee stays in a flexed position during the backswing, a player can coil
their weight into their back leg, thus storing energy for the downswing.
While using the KNEE Tactic on their right knee, a player will hear
a "click" when they do not maintain a flexed knee position.
The KNEE Tactic will allow a player to self-correct the problem and
will help them to avoid a reverse weight shift. The final result will
be a solid foundation for a powerful golf swing.
