    Taylormade Extreme Stik Golf Swing Speed Training

    I low ball-bought one of these on Ebay for 20 Bucks. It measures your swing speed. I bought it mostly as a party entertaining device.

    Has any heard how accurate it is cause it says my swing speed is 107mph in slippers on my slick deck so.......

    Maybe you should consider playing in slippers.
    When applying the Rules, you follow them line by line. You don't read between them.

    In my experience, anything short of Trackman is fairly meaningless.

    It may not accurately tell you the current speed but using it will tell you if your speed is increasing, it would seem?

    I'm no physicist, but it always seemed to me that they have higher readings when you have a 'flip' release instead of a gradual one. So I think they may respond better for swings which have a point with faster acceleration.
