Very useful product. Helps with one-piece takeaway initiated by the bigger muscles. It is great when practicing short game shots also.

Here is Kaymer's Impact ball--a Tennis ball!

Also makes ya think about the smaller size--Question for Impact ball Rep--we may not have Kaymer's skill to hold a tennis ball, but would we benefit from the smaller size like he has it here?

He also has a lanyard attached to it to keep from having to pick it up if he makes a mistake. It also allows him to make a full speed swing with the ball being released near the end of the swing without flying down the course.

Michael Breed did a segment on it but used a wiffle baseball/softball so that it was easier to tie some paracord/string through it.

I'm not sure if I really have the answer for this. The idea for the Impact Ball (as well as using a tennis ball or any other spacing device) is to keep proper swinging form. We make three sizes more for comfort than anything else. Obviously Kaymer has been practicing:)

I was at the range on Sunday, and I had my impact ball out as per usual. I took a few swings with it and noticed the pro giving lessons to a couple. He came over and asked if he could borrow the impact ball for a minute. He then used it to show them some things and then brought it back over (inspecting it as he did). So, obviously something that instructors feel is a benefit to those of us trying to groove a swing.

No problem--you answered my question--more about comfort in the size than "progressing" to a smaller size.
 
Kaymer inspiring me to get the impact ball out more regularly and do some work. Seemed they had clips of him using his version of the ball each day on the range. I have noticed my arms drifting apart more due to lack of focus here and the stray drives have come back more lately. Will be making the use of this a few times a week.

Many people think The Impact Ball is a use it and you are done product. We all have bad habits we slide back into over time, even the pros. Again, glad our product is helping you!
 
I will be putting this back into practice this next week. The elbow is starting to feel better and I feel that I can start using this again.
 
I really need to remember to use this when I'm working on my chipping, lord knows I need all the help I can get, and I think this would be great. I can just feel Mward grinning as he reads this...
