Been interested in these for a while. Saw a good deal on one on FB marketplace pop up so I decided to grab it. Anybody have any experience with these? Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I have one. Be careful there are a lot of knockoffs out there and some of the knock off's are better than others. They are great warm up devices and do help pull you into some good positions.

I got one. I can’t tell if it helps my game or not but I like the use of it when I can’t play A ton of golf and want reps. Seems to give me a good stretch

I was swinging mine in the bedroom and the cat walked in and even though I checked off the swing the shaft was already whipping through and I popped it right in the face

I got the sklz gold flex. I really like it. It’s great to stretch and I think u can build strength using it a lot. Keeps tempo good, keeps you from coming over the top.
If I can’t hit balls, I would rather swing it than a regular club.

I got one for Christmas. I’ve been using it and love it. I feel like it’s helped my swing speed as well.

If anything, it warms you up quick.

How does it keep you from coming over the top? I’ve never been able to understand how they work other than tempo.

The weight of the thing; if you come over the top the weight will make the swing plane go crazy snd it will flop around.

Really hard to hit straight and the ball doesn’t go far at all, would not recommend.

I like my orange whip for swinging mid-week and also to loosen up prior to playing if the range is closed. However, after swinging to warm up, make sure you swing a normal club and take a few divots ... since you don’t hit the ground with the orange ball, it tends to make you top your shot starting off.

I love mine. Got it on EBay for about $80. I don’t regret the purchase, which is a lot different than a lot of my golf purchases on EBay.
