WEEKEND GOLFER

Everything for the Golfer.

 

Our Comments
We recently had the opportunity to put the Sonic Golf System to test. Everything came packaged in a easy-to-carry case. The installation of the special grips went smoothly and the adjustment for the audio sensor into the shaft was quick and easy. Once installed we rushed out side with the audio player and headphones to start "playing" with the system. We now highly recommed watching the video first.

The main concept is to "hear" your swing, when you swing the club you will hear the sound as the club starts the backswing moves into the impact area finishes with the follow through. The faster the club moves the louder and higher pitched the sound. It is a great way to learn where in your swing the club is moving the fastest. The video will show you easy ways to fix many common problems that all golfers experience.

This is a great tool to practise with. It is a bit pricey but not too bad when we look at the money spent on things that do not work. This system will improve your golf game, score, and overall enjoyment. WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!

Special Information
I wanted to share a great feature that was written by Adam Balkin for NY1 News TV this week that highlights the Sonic Golf System-1 swing aid that was developed by Dr. Robert Grober, a Yale University physicist. The System-1 is an extraordinary piece of technology that can be used by golfers at all levels.

Here is a link to the article.

Get Your Swing in Tune with the Sonic Golf System-1

System-1 Solo Edition

MEDIA ALERT: Sonic Golf's electronically enabled, intelligent golf clubs use patented audio biofeedback and the Sonic Golf System-1 was developed by Yale University physicist Dr. Robert Grober to revolutionize the way we learn, practice and play golf. The most recent winner of the 2008 Fedex Cup, Vijay Singh, uses this product to help him maintain the proper rhythm in his swing.

Vijay Singh, who won the FedExCup this year, started using the Sonic Golf System-1 training aid in June and the effect was immediate and dramatic. He went on to win The World Golf Championships-Bridgestone Invitational, The Barclays and the Deutsche Bank Championship en route to the season ending FedExCup bonus check of $10 million.

Vijay Singh after winning the 2009 Deutsche Bank Championship
"System-1 has helped me tremendously. I always had a good rhythm, but I never had a consistent rhythm. It's making my swing a lot more consistent, not just with the driver but the whole game. It's one rhythm for the whole game instead of having a quicker rhythm for irons or slower rhythm for the driver."

The key to the System-1 is sound and the brain's intuitive sense of melody. The System-1 uses electronic technology inserted into the shaft of your own golf club. Your swing motion is then transmitted wirelessly to a belt-worn receiver with headset that converts your swing motion into continuous musical tones. Slow swings are low pitch, quiet tones. Swing faster and the pitch and volume gets higher. With each swing you hear your own rhythm and tempo, backswing, downswing transition, and the timing and speed of your club head release. The beauty of this system is that you can actually work on your swing without a technical thought in your mind; you simply listen to the tones and try to move the pitch to different points in the swing, in doing so you can actually fix your swing faults without even knowing it.
