It's great for getting the angle of approach idea in many peoples heads.

Thanks guys (and hello Paul S!!!).

My cousin has given me the go ahead to send it to her address so I am ordering one today :D

I'll hopefully have it by the middle of June and will drop back to give my opinion of it.

Dowels
 
Why not just use some dowels and a couple of tees to create a similar setup? Everyone probably already has some dowels. Save the extra dough for a round of golf. :golf:

I know what you're saying but believe me, these things need to be idiot proof for the likes of me :D

It looks like it will cost £60 and comes with a 5 year guarantee. I'll get more use out of it than I would spending the money on green fees!

Dowels are ok but if hitting off grass you have to continually adjust them
unless you do not take a divot. You actually hit off the Vision Track plastic.
The VT can work against you if you have throw away. I find it best to alternate hitting shots off the VT and grass.

After using my VT for a bit when I first got it I put it away.

Recently I asked Chuck Evans about it and he basically said they use it with every student, every lesson. He sent me a link to the Medicus video of how to use it and I have to say I found this much better than the video supplied by the place I got it!

I have started using it again and have really noticed big improvements immediately, especially with regards its help in my converting to hitting with an angled hinge.

Really great product.

Again I echo the earlier comment to switch between using it and not using it during practice sessions.

It's a great training aid to help visualize the sweet spot on the alternate target line which is approximately 11 degrees, not 45!
