Anyone use, or use with their instructors, any of the different pressure boards? Really considering getting one like the Downshift as ground force and weight transfer are things I really need to work on.

I’d rather an actual board for the immediate feedback than the soles.Salted. They work well for what they are.
I've not used one. Heard and read a lot about ground force reactions in quite a few places, It's also something I need to keep working on.Anyone use, or use with their instructors, any of the different pressure boards?

I do the chair drill that they did at TPi, it’s good stuff!I've not used one. Heard and read a lot about ground force reactions in quite a few places, It's also something I need to keep working on.
I feel like you could make that Downshift board with some plywood, a few screws, a dowel rod and some grip tape for a lot less than 80 dollars?
One thing I always remember from one of the chasing scratch podcast videos was using the chair with wheels and pushing off the floor. (vid starts just before that section, but worth watching the whole thing, it's only 16 mins.
My Instagram is flooded with the rocker board type aids. It knows
Seriously though, I’ll be following along anyone who dives in.
Id be really curious how well they work while swinging without a ball. The closest range is 20 min from me which I recognize is first world problems compared to some, but carving out over hour on a regular basis during the week can get tough. Would rather take 20 min in the garage.
Sounds like something I would do. I can be a little clumsy too!I do the chair drill that they did at TPi, it’s good stuff!
Probably could make one, but I could also probably eff it up and hurt myself
Saaaaaaaaame! HahaSounds like something I would do. I can be a little clumsy too!
It’s from Why Golf probably hahaI looked at one recently. Can’t remember the brand but it was orange haha
Ugh now I have to lookIt’s from Why Golf probably haha
Would you full swing or more half speed stuff to get the feel?
And honestly, the ability to use it NOT hitting a ball has me most intrigued, it could be killer to work on for a bit in front of a mirror each evening.
Correct. I hate/love youIt’s from Why Golf probably haha
Probably half to start because I’ve got a feeling it will feel like a newborn calf falling out of a tree.Would you full swing or more half speed stuff to get the feel?
I know things, even if people think I don’t.Correct. I hate/love you
That’s exactly what I’m looking for with it.I used the downshift one with my coach for awhile. He had two but prefers the downshift. it seemed very well made and he uses it a lot. Using it helped me understand better where to be with the weight shift.
I went fancy and ordered the downshiftIt will be a fun follow if you snag one or two options, especially with the different education involved in it.
The other thing that always fascinated me was the orange peel thing. Sort of forcing weight in the swing.
I forgot to mention the downshift had a much better feel and you could get a bit wider stance on it if needed.I went fancy and ordered the downshift
Didn’t give you the feel you thought it would? Or it didn’t do anything for you in your swing?I built one in late 2022. Ehhh.
I YouTube'd some DIY ideas and I think it was just a poor substitute for the real thing.Didn’t give you the feel you thought it would? Or it didn’t do anything for you in your swing?
