This training aid allows golfers to hit actual golf balls, providing real-time feedback on their swing mechanics. Its unique design helps in developing proper sequencing between hands, arms, shoulders, and hips, leading to longer, more accurate, and solid shots.

2. Setup

The Lag Shot 7 Iron is ready for immediate use out of the box. No assembly is required.

1. Grip: Hold the club with a standard golf grip. The rubber grip is designed for comfort and durability.
2. Stance: Adopt your usual golf stance for a 7 iron.
3. Environment: Can be used outdoors on a driving range or golf course, or indoors with a simulator and launch monitor speed system.

3. Operating Instructions

The core principle of the Lag Shot 7 Iron is to provide sensory feedback that guides your swing. The flexible shaft and weighted clubhead will highlight improper movements, encouraging a more efficient and powerful swing.

3.1 Practice Swings

Begin with slow, controlled practice swings without a ball. Focus on feeling the clubhead throughout the swing. The flexible shaft will bend significantly if your tempo is too fast or jerky, indicating a need for smoother transitions.

3.2 Hitting Golf Balls

Once comfortable with practice swings, proceed to hit golf balls. The weighted clubhead and flexible shaft will naturally encourage proper lag and timing. If you swing too quickly with your hands, the clubhead will lag excessively, resulting in poor contact. Aim for a smooth, rhythmic swing that allows the shaft to load and unload naturally.

3.3 Warm-up Routine

Use the Lag Shot 7 Iron as part of your pre-round warm-up. A few minutes of swinging can help activate the correct muscles and establish a consistent tempo before transitioning to your regular clubs.

4. Maintenance

Proper care will ensure the longevity and performance of your Lag Shot 7 Iron.

• Cleaning: After each use, wipe the clubhead and shaft with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Ensure the club is dry before storage.
• Grip Care: Regularly clean the rubber grip with mild soap and water to maintain its tackiness.
• Storage: Store the club in a dry place, away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight, to prevent material degradation.

5. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues or are not seeing desired results, consider the following:

• Inconsistent Contact: This often indicates an overly aggressive or 'handsy' swing. Focus on slowing down your transition and allowing your body to rotate through the swing, letting the clubhead follow naturally. The flexible shaft is designed to exaggerate this feedback.
• Lack of Lag: If you feel the clubhead is 'casting' or releasing too early, the Lag Shot's weighted head will make this apparent. Concentrate on maintaining the angle between your lead arm and the club shaft longer into the downswing.
• Poor Tempo: If the shaft is bending excessively or feels uncontrollable, your tempo might be too fast. Practice smoother, more deliberate swings to find a consistent rhythm.
