I’m looking for something to loosen me up some before a round, especially when I don’t get to hit the range, and also if it helps with tempo that’s great too.

I’m young (31) and pretty flexible (can touch my toes), will it benefit me?

It’s no miracle worker but it’s durable and nice to have around. If you’re worried about cost then get the models that aren’t branded “orange whip”

It helps with tempo more than anything imo

It’s great if you are getting out of the car after work, and have limited time to warm up. Also nice to swing in backyard or even during commercials- as long as nothing is in the path!

make sure you get the longer one (48" i believe). most of the real cheap ones are too short. i got one like 2 weeks ago. $30 i believe.

Or go used on eBay. I also like them for tempo and warm up.

I accidentally got the short one tho so pay attention to that.

I like it, if for no other reason than getting some good stretching swings in before the range, or when backed up on the course.

mine is a Zeonetak. i imagine they are all exactly the same (and probably exactly same as orange whip).

Thanks that one looks like a literal clone. Some of the other ones seem different, heavier, stiffer, shorter etc….

I've got the one that looks like a damn microphone. I've had it for years. I dont love it, but it does help you get stretched out really quick. I keep it in my truck but not in my bag.

I can do this and I’m a bit older than you so this isn’t that great of a gauge on flexibility.

I wasn’t bragging just trying to give a general baseline
