GolfGym products
include the PowerSwing Trainer, which was first introduced in 1987, and the
GolfGym Club 38 (about 2.4 pounds) and Club 28 (about 1.75 pounds) weighted
trainers, which were introduced in early 2005. GolfGym products have been
featured recently on The Golf Channel in segments hosted by Roberts and have
also been used by contestants on the The Golf Channel Makeover Challenge hosted
by Roberts and golf style guru, Marty Hackel.
The patented PowerSwing
Trainer is a unique training and conditioning tool designed to develop proper
swing habits and muscle memory, improve club control and shot accuracy, build
strength to add distance, and develop better balance and posture. The PowerSwing
Trainer comes packaged in either a Personal Edition for $39.95 or a Masters
Edition for $69.95. Both versions include a ProPerfect training grip, a latex
PowerCord (a medium resistance for the Personal Edition and a light, medium and
heavy resistance for the Masters Edition), door attachment, instruction manual,
pre-round warm up card, instructional DVD and a convenient carrying
bag.
The new golf-balanced Club 38 (about 2.4 pounds) and Club 28 (about
1.75 pounds) are perfect complements to the well-established PowerSwing Trainer.
The clubs are proportionately weighted with the overall weight distributed the
same as a traditional club, which makes them perfect as a warm up tool for
golfers prior to their rounds or in a training regiment. By weighting them in
proportion to a standard club, the GolfGym Club simply accentuates a golf club's
natural feel. Its weight makes it easier to keep track of the head as it pulls
the golfer through his or her swing. The GolfGym Club 38 and Club 28 each retail
for $59.95.
