The number of tour players who use headcovers or towels for practice to maintain the left arm connection are countless and V.J. Singh is right up there. Ben Hogan wrote that he used straps of the sort I am talking about. EdZ listed the figure 8 as his favorite training aid. There are definitely people who believe in such devices and teachers who believe in the maintenance of this connection as I believe this holds up the structure of the wedges.

By the way I would like to correct my statement about the elbows inside the hips to pointing toward the hips ala Hogan, Leadbetter, Ballard etc. That would mean from the view of the players back at address you would not be able to see the players elbows.

The fundamental question then becomes if these devices work what is the reason? Or as you believe they don't then no explanation is necessary.

Thanks for replying

Dave -I know about vijay ,Hogan etc and I am not trying to belittle such great players.All I know is that Hogan did not do what he wrote in the book(regarding the elbows being together).Vijay could not keep that glove /headcover there in his playing swing.That is not to say that these devices don't work .It may be a drill that exagerates a FEEL which translates into $10m a year!.I prefer the facts and i am not as good as them!
