Had it about 3-4weeks now I believe.. Drawing the ball more than I ever have. And added about 30 + yards on my driver. I always knew my limitation was flexibility and this has really helped stretch me out

I don't even have time to play golf anymore with work and these babies, but you guys and this thread got me to get one.

Hopefully I can keep some rust off for the random 18 I play throughout the year.

Had 270 into a green with a 10 mph wind in my face yesterday. Took a 3W and left myself 10 yards short of the green.

Surprised myself. Haven't been doing the full routine anymore but doing 10-15 reps one time with the red band twice a week and before a round

I also had 180 left into 2 par 5s yesterday. Tried to hit a smooth 6 instead of swinging at a 7. You know, to be smart.

Blocked both right into water and made bogey's

I wish I had a referral code, the MISIG is not the only reason obviously, but I got my MISIG on Monday after shooting a 101 a Riverside (austin) which is wide open but small greens (since the freeze) and one of the worst rounds of my adult life to shoot a 78 at Shadowglen today. That's my best round in 15 years by 5 strokes.

Two primary differences my short game which I drilled all week in the back yard after the kid went to bed was nails but also, I didn't come over the top of one ball which I credited to MISIG and never felt the need to swing hard

I mainly used it as a stretching device using the weakest band for 10 reps of 15 second holds.

Does the TEXAGS code that Bernie posted sometime back still work when ordering one?

Ordered one on the website with the code last week and it worked.

Just read through the thread and you'll get your answers.

I would think if you only play 5 times a year it's not worth it. At that rate you may have a consistent swing but I'd imagine you're just practicing bad habits. You need to hit balls and see what's your results are.

I mean I guess it may work as a stretch aid but I don't know. I don't see it making a difference for someone who plays so sparingly. Just my 0.02

If you don't play a lot you could probably use it as a practice mechanism in the back yard. It will atleast work those muscles but might not be worth it

Save me reading the last 10 pagesis there a consensus? Is there a good summary of who it worked for and who it didn't? Did anyone report it messing up their swings?

I hit a draw or hook mostly. Play about 5 times a year (have 4 kids). Hit driver about 265. Probably 250 carry. My biggest problem is I'll go 6 months without playing and then it takes me a round to get my swing back consistent. Seems this might help keep my swing consistent during my extended layoffs. My goal isn't to add distance, thought that would be a nice side benefit.

Thoughts?

It worked for me: ~10 mph ball speed on the Driver after roughly 2 months.

Yes, it changed my swing in ways that have required adjustment.

If you play 5 times a year, it might not be worth it. But it will increase your core strength, and flexibility. What that does to your golf swing is anybody's guess.

As far as "consensus" goes, my sense from those who have posted is that it works as advertised. Those who use it consistently have seen gains. Those who don't, haven't.

The biggest difference for me is that I am generating the same or better distance with about 80% of the effort -- which has really helped my Iron and wedge play. I hit the driver longer than any time since my 30s. But I still block & pull when I lose focus, slide, or get too quick in anticipation of hitting a "big" drive.

I would agree it's best to work both sides evenly. But isn't that true with any "workout"?

Like many things in life, I think the answer here is moderation. If you attack this thing with a lot of reps daily in hopes of morphing into Bryson, t&p for you. But spending a couple of minutes a day or a few times a week to work on your flexibility and gain a little strength cant hurt. IMO it's much better utilized to stretch vs trying to push yourself on the band resistance/strength building too much. If you're lifting weights, you aren't going to hit the same muscle group more than 2x per week. So if you are pushing yourself on the bands/resistance with this, you shouldn't treat it any differently

I did place an order today. But as a true Texags golf board participant... I don't see how my 350 yard drive can get much better... Or my 160 yard sand wedge.. but worth a shot!

My MISIG gets here today. I'm on Trackman weekly so I'll try and get an updated graph after each session. Here's a starting point pre-MISIG from yesterday:

---

How do you hit a 9i 150 and a driver only 250? That seems like a big disparity. Before MISIG I hit my 3w 240 ish and my driver about 270-280. I only hit my 9 about 140.

This is a reason I don't use any expensive devices to measure things. I just play golf.

MISIG helps me warm up at home, but I don't use it regularly. I've noticed about a 10 yard gain with my driver if I hit it dead center, but that's it. My irons are all still the same.

I was going to guess GI irons with strong lofts.
