Training Aids
A set of training aids is available for members to use when practising at the Club, as a complimentary service to members.
You may wish to book a lesson with one of our Golf Professionals to help identify which aids may be most relevant for your needs and to fast track learning how to use the relevant aids.
Alternatively you can watch the video applicable to each aid to get initial training in how to use the aid. You can locate the video by clicking on the heading on each training aid.
The aids are stored in the Golf Shop. On request staff will locate the requested aids and sign them out to you in the Loans Register. The staff are also available to offer suggestions on best use of each aid.

An impact bag allows the golfer to focus on their position at impact. It promotes hip rotation by stopping the arms as they contact the bag. It encourages the lead arm to be in line with the club at impact, therefore reducing the wrists breaking down. A stronger impact position will lead to gains in accuracy and distance.
The Lagshot clubs weighted head and very flexible shaft creates natural lag in the golf swing. Lag is the clubhead trailing behind the hands on the downswing. This lag increases accuracy, distance, and tempo/timing in the golf swing. The Lagshot also assists in a more efficient take away and loading the club on your backswing. Left and Right handed clubs are available.
The Divot Mat gives you instant feedback on your divot patterns. Line your clubhead up with the white lines at address and make a swing impacting the mat. The divot mark will indicate where the club initially impacts the mat and the direction that the club comes through impact. This feedback will assist in correcting your divot pattern, therefore improving strike, accuracy and distance. The best part is you can even use the divot mat indoors and do not need to hit a ball.
The Smart Ball is a light, portable training aid used to sequence your arms and body in the golf swing. Place the lanyard around your neck with the ball hanging down your chest, adjust the lanyard so the inside of your forearms can be placed on the ball. Start your swing keeping your arms on the ball until you’ve gone through impact. The smart ball promotes the golfer to use their arms and body together during the swing assisting to achieve a more efficient and powerful golf swing.
The Power Package can help teach users to set the club properly and produces a pure, powerful, repeatable swing. It also helps with improper wrist set, correcting swing plane, create better control of club face and assist with better body rotation through the ball.
