Geovanni L asked:
I have trouble squaring the face at impact and coming in on a good swing plane. I plan to take lessons but would like to see what else can help. I am considering the ernie else system or the inside approach. Does any one suggest one over the other or even anything else? Thanks

I have gone through this as well and let me tell you from experience that a Good PGA Qualified Instructor cannot be replaced by a ” Training Aid ” A qualified instructor can tell you exactly what you are doing wrong and begin to correct you right away , he can also tell you if you have the right clubs , have you been fitted for clubs ?? a qualified instructor can do all this for you , and yes it will cost you more in the long run but you will be all the happier and better appreciate this Great Game called Golf .
You and your Family Have a Great Christmas.
Thanks for your kind comments Advocate , its always nice to find someone who calls one names instead of producing facts , Great Job !!!! and by the way I have never seen or used a circular trainer , and a PGA instructor has taken me from a 15 Handicap to a single digit , but that’s just me , even though you can only call one names I still wish you a Merry Christmas to you and your family as well , If your nice maybe Santa will bring you some Game !!
I’ve spent hundreds of dollars on video lessons, personal instruction, DVDs and training aids. By far the best ‘training’ aid I have used is a book called…
BEN HOGAN’S FIVE LESSONS.
It’ll set you back $12 and in a year’s time – you’ll shave 12 strokes off of your game by hitting more greens than you ever have. In golf, making more greens-in-regulation is what will truly help you shave strokes off of your score.

A very close second place is the Head Monitor, offered by John Elliot at
This product is worth the money! Mine was $30.. but the price may have changed. Good luck getting sqare! Use the Hogan fundamentals & John’s Gap B to ensure proper set up!
Berry is a fool, and will probably get “led down the path”
A circular plane trainer can be a good thing.
The best way to improve, hit the ball square, improve distance and strength is to hit more golf balls (period). The only way to hit more balls is to practice and play more, but if you can’t do that (because of winter or whatever…) buy a mat and net…and putt in the house.
Most other issues, slicing, hooking, can be resolved by reading books.
