Advantage of Using Golf Mental Training Aids
Bobby Jones once said that the game of golf is played on a five-inch course — the distance between the ears. So it is not surprising that mental training aids abound and cover a vast amount of territory. Many professional golfers hire a mental coach to help them reach their full potential, and many books, videos and DVDs explore the mental aspect of competition. You don't have to be a pro to benefit from training your mind as well as your swing.

Golf Training Tools
Golf training tools run the gamut from the sublime to the seemingly ridiculous. There are simple tools that some of the best golfers in the world use, such as the towel or handkerchief under the armpit to help you keep "connected" during the swing. There are inventive tools such as the Explanar Golf Training System, which sells for just under $1,000 and features a loop to guide you toward the correct swing plane and thus a more repeatable swing. Because you can't use them while you're playing, you don't want to get too obsessed with training tools, but you might be able to find a few that can help you alleviate weaknesses in your game.
