Vision Track Training Aid, Anyone?
 
Anyone yet to try the Vision Track found at www.visiongolf.com ???

I think it was Chucks site, where I first heard about this aid, and they were talking really highly about it, I have ordered one, but am yet to receive it, so I cant comment personally.

I've had it and wish I had never done a 'spring cleaning' and thrown it out.

Once you get over hitting the plastic, it is a weird feel, it does work. Although you will never be able to go to low point.

The problem I had was that my weight would freeze and hang a little back since I got so focused on the back spot.
I have reordered mine and will pay more attention this time.

You can always paint the ground too.

How is it used for TGM purposes?
 
I can't find any TGM type references on the website. How would machine golfers use this aid?

Save your money
 
just get a carpenters chalk line maker and make a line 45 degrees from the ball towards your foot line and you'll have the same path.

45* correct angle?
 
In another site, they talk about as low as an 11* angle, but state they move it down as improvement comes along---so probably start in the 45* range?

Probably a little under plane. :) try something smaller. Just make sure you some in at the inner quadrant of the ball.

the vision track is something I'm organising for myself at the moment. They don't deliver internationally so I have to have it delivered to my cousin in Philadelphia before she cans end it to me here in the UK.

At under $90 it seems very reasonable.

I'm confused as to why someone suggested 45 degrees when the site says 11. I guess this is due to the position the measurement is taken from? :scratch:

Another thing that I'm confused about is whether you are hitting the ball or the aiming point. It would appear from some posts I've read that people are hitting the aiming point causing the ball to jump before contact - surely all that is, is a recipe for learning to hit the ball fat!

Anyway, its been recommended to me by an AI so I'm going to try it as it won't break the bank.

The Vision track is a good device worth owning. It also helps with setup. The Angle of approach is set at 11 degrees. It is best for those that swing under or over the plane inclined plane. I use it out when my alignments get out of sync.

Okie's Review
 
I have received a few comments about my Vision Track while using it at the range. Most people cannot believe that I can hit a straight shot covering that line. I have found that extended use has an unitended negative side effect. I do my best to trace the plane line on all of my shots...I pay no attention to the club head covering anything...it takes me a few shots to switch from covering to tracing (although they accomplish the same thing.) To me it is easier and more consistent with real play to trace an imaginary plane line than it is to cover an imaginary 11 degree line extending from the already imaginary plane line!

So as not to send mixed signals to the coconut I always place the ball at low point for a pick off, or simply hit driver and take an air divot!
