- In this video, I will show you how to make your own David Leadbetter STRAIGHT AWAY for just a few dollars. The straight away is a fantastic device to ensure you start the takeaway correctly. However, in my opinion it is extremely over engineered and way too expensive. If you want to eliminate your slice, increase your distance and improve your ball striking you must take the club away correctly. This device will help you do that for sure.
if you watch all the top pros they all take the club back in the same ballpark because they know that you have to start making compensations immediately if you don’t. tiger woods, Rory McIlroy and others all get this first 2 feet in the take away correct.
Given the name "Straight Away," one might infer that this training aid is designed to promote a straight and accurate ball flight. Here are potential features and principles associated with such a training aid:
Alignment Assistance:
The training aid could focus on helping golfers achieve proper alignment. This may involve visual guides, markers, or features that encourage consistent alignment relative to the target.
Swing Path Correction:
If the aim is to promote straight shots, the training aid may include elements that guide golfers in achieving a straight and on-plane swing path. This could involve physical structures or markers that reinforce the correct swing path.
Versatility:
An effective training aid is often versatile, catering to golfers of different skill levels. Adjustable components or settings may be incorporated to allow users to customize the aid based on their specific needs.
Feedback Mechanism:
Immediate feedback is a crucial aspect of training aids. The "Straight Away Golf Training Aid" might provide feedback, such as audible cues or visual indicators, to help golfers understand when their swing deviates from the desired straight path.
Hypothetical Usage Guidelines:
Consistent Practice:
Like any training aid, consistent and focused practice is key. Regular use of the "Straight Away Golf Training Aid" can contribute to muscle memory and improved swing consistency.
Integration with Drills:
Golfers may benefit from integrating the training aid into various practice drills. This could include combining its use with other exercises to address different aspects of the swing.
Alignment Checks:
Beyond swing correction, the training aid might encourage golfers to use it for quick alignment checks during practice sessions. Reinforcing proper setup habits is essential for achieving straight shots.
Conclusion:
While specific details about the "Straight Away Golf Training Aid" are not available, the general principles outlined above can be applied to understand how a training aid with this focus might operate. For accurate and detailed information about this specific training aid, it is recommended to refer to the product's official documentation, reviews, or contact the manufacturer directly. Always check for the latest developments and user feedback to ensure that the training aid aligns with your specific goals and preferences.
Even faster and cheaper is to use a Post-It note. Draw a diagonal line from one corner to the opposite. Stick the Post-It note on the shaft so the left edge points straight down the shaft and your diagonal line is at a 45 deg angle. You can hit balls with it and it doesn’t fall off. Thank you!!!
not understand ...
Great idea
Great idea
I did this and it worked. My spin rate was 4000 or more. After installing the DIY cardboard and practicing the straight takeaway i got it down to under 3000. It takes practice but this really did work for me.
Awesome video brother. And thanks for sharing about this device. I appreciate your help and humor. You had me rolling on how this would fix everything. 😂 😂 🤙🏾🤙🏾
Wow, thank you for this. Excellent golf training aid for a fraction of the coast.
Awesome, man!! Colleague of mine bought the real thing. I just made your copy and it looks and works just great. Can't wait to show him your home bulit version for ZERO bucks 😁😁😁
This is great. The same training results can be achieved by striping or using an alignment stick on the ground at a roughly 45 degree angle to the target line at the trail foot. Use your core to get the club shaft pointed directly over that line. Over and over.
Loved it. I'll call you when the zombie apocalypse hits. Your resourcefulness will be invaluable!!!
The mad scientist strikes again! Great job.
Thanks!
I did your MIM one the weight one. It worked amazing I’m looking forward to this
I am excited to try it. I am trying to change my swing to be like the straight-away tech before I saw their ad. Was considering buying it. Now I get to try it for free GREAT thanks.
Kind words! Hope it helps you out.
I drew a 45 degree line with a sharpie across the grip closest to the club head. Works really well and can be used on actual shots.
Thanks for the plans and explanation of the device. Not an expert like David Leadbetter but it seems strange that this amount of club travel could have a big impact - but maybe good as a refresher/check of the move away.
I tape a bendable straw to the shaft. Then bend it at a 45 degree angle. Works great!
Fantastic I love what u did just made one 👍 😊
Just made one for myself in 20-30 minutes using a frozen lasagna box, hahaha. Great video and thanks for making it. I'm poor and can't afford to drop money on all these golf gadgets, so this was great for me. Also, by the way, I used 3 flat neodymium disc magnets (1/2" diameter) to hold it to the shaft (steel shafts) instead of velcro. Works like a charm! Thanks again! I subscribed.
Thanks for the support. There a few other homemade training aid videos on my channel if you like this one. Hope it improves your game!
Very cool and smart
Cool man thanks.
Thank you MG
Sweet Jesus! If I had only seen this BEFORE I wasn’t all that money. Brilliant!
Thank you for cutting through the b.s.
brilliant work as always … I'm betting that getting better with it depends on what type of cereal you like! ;)
Made one by cutting a triangle out of piece of light wood.
You can accomplish the same thing by keeping the leading edge of the club perpendicular to the line of flight.
3D printed one of these using your dimensions with a half tube to fit over the shaft and neodymium magnets. Thanks.
NICE!!
This is excellent, already made mine.! The fact that Leadbetter is charging $75 for that tiny simple contraption is ridiculous. And you can see the videos on his site for free on how to use this with different drills. Don't spend the money.!
I also made a video with a 3d printed one.
Genius! ... I made one but have not tried it yet. Also see you have a prototype plastic one (I couldn't make sense of the file ... bummer) but I'll try out my/your cardboard straight-away at the driving range tomorrow. Thanks! BTW ... I used a Cheerios box (LOL)
The file is a .STL ( files used for 3d printing). Others have successfully opened it and used it. Maybe you need the right program to open it.
Thanks for the support.
Awesome video! Very useful and easy to follow. Thank you very much for saving me some ca$h!
Thank u
As a Mechanical Engineer I commend you!
made it last month, I went from a 12 HC to a 2 in just 45 days... :)
Nobody believes that...😂
i made one with a piece of #4 solid wire and taped it to the shaft and red tape on the wire so i could see it better. not sure it will help my swing action yet.
Another excellent take away check is the take your stance. Place an alignment rod touching your left heel and your right toe (for a right handed golfer). When you get your hands at your right hip and parallel to the ground, the club shaft should be parallel to the alignment rod. Your clubhead will be outside your hands at this point and on plane.
For people who want a slightly more authentic version of this, there are lots of options for 3D printing as well. Might be 2-3x the price of cardboard but would probably still win the price/performance challenge...
@@AndreeMarkefors I made a video about that with a link to a file to print one.
I'm downloading this video before Leadbetter takes it offline.😀
Stencil a speed square, cut it out. Make slots on the bottom for three Velcro straps to wrap and attach to the shaft and boom
Forgot to mention use balsam wood
Good idea. An important feature everyone misses is not just the 45 degree angle from the shaft but the 45 degree angle of the plane that the arrow is on to the triangle. This ensures the correct amount of hinge and face orientation.
I have a video coming out with a 3d printed version so stay tuned.
Next mission pro sendr 😂
Question.. should I use Cheerios or would Frosted Mini Wheats box be okay? 😂
😂😂
How about working on a True Turn Pro for your followers. Thanks
I’ll add it to the list!
What I am trying to figure out is how far down the shaft should the indicator be installed?
If you look at the leadbetter infomercials it sits about 1 to 2 inches below the grip.
Thought he said right below grip (Leadbetter)?
Just use a speed square.
Everyone keeps saying that but they don’t realize the importance of the angles on the top of the device. It’s not just 45 degree and to the sheet that matters.
@@migmatisgolf Lay the speed square on the ground on your toe line marker
Square up the club and use a magic marker on some blue tape
Is the STL file missing?
never mind, found it, Thanks!
All I need to know is how do I get a refund?
😂😂😂
Still have no response on how to send my paper weight back.
Any good 3D modelers make a STL file yet?
I made a file for a 3d printed version. Still tweaking it though.
@@migmatisgolf This has helped my Driving and finesse short game tremendously! I Use my right index finger as a reference during play for backswing takeaway rehearsal. Thank you for sharing your creative cardboard design. 👏
@@ratherbegolfing7836 you are welcome. Thanks for the support.
came here looking for this comment lmao. this looks rather easy to make yourself with a printer lol
This is what I’ve been looking for! Happy I stumbled upon this video. Any updates on a good STL file to use?
DL calls the takeaway the moveaway. If you don't call it that it won't work. A simple omission but one that will make all the difference to your swing,
He actually calls it the “Tour Takeaway”.
Great news guys… they sell this on Ali express for $18
You indicated 2.75 inches for the vertical lines of the triangle. You did not indicate the length of the horizontal line of the triangle so not knowing the length makes the drawing impossible to accurately produce. Unless I am wrong. I could be wrong!!
The equal sides of the triangle are both 2.75 inches. As they form a right angle you don’t need the length of the long side although you could use the Pythagoras theorem. Hope that helps. If not try to be more specific so I can elaborate. Thanks.
Stephen, you must've skipped geometry class back in highschool? Lol
That's not all I missed
You should do a Donald Trump impersonation
DIY model or real thing does nothing to ais the swing. Ok, match the line. Now what? LOL
It aids in the takeaway, which for many people is one of the most crucial parts of the swing. It teaches you not to roll your wrist on the takeaway…which is a HUGE swing killer.
I’d rather pay $75 for yours than Leadbetters over engineered one 😆🫡
