I've got mine balanced across the handle bars of my stationary bike and it's serving as an additional clothes rack for my golf shirts.

I hit this range this afternoon.

Here was my baseline on 24 Feb, 18 days ago:

108.8 Swing Speed
153.3 Ball Speed
1.41 Smash
2450 Spin
14.7 Launch
252.9 Carry

Reminder -- this is a Mevo -- the ball speed is the only thing really being measured accurately -- the rest are partial calculations, and tend to overestimate swing speed, and underestimate carry and smash.

Here were my last 10 Driver shots, after warming up -- none deleted:



112.1 Swing Speed
157.7 Ball Speed
1.41 Smash
254.8 Carry
11.7 Launch Angle
3025 Spin

I was tending to be quick, and had a number of toe-y hooks in that group - those tended to be the ones with a low launch angle, dropping the average angle and carry.

Leaving the range, I hit 6 tee shots off #4 at Traditions - a very slightly downhill Par 4, with maybe 5 mph wind, and a damp fairway. Temps in the 60s.

I hooked 3 -- not terrible drives on some holes, but out of the fairway.

I hit 3 on the screws: 294, 298, and 305 right down the middle.

Bottom line is that I've gained roughly 4 mph Ball speed in roughly 3 weeks.

It has also changed my swing -- lengthening it -- which makes tempo and sequencing more important. I have to pause at the top and start from the hips, or I get quick & handsy and hook it.

Overall, I'd say it does what it says it does, and I'll keep working at it - probably switching to the red band next weekend. But realize using this isn't going to just make you faster without affecting your swing.

Been at it for a month - 2 weeks with the Orange, 2 weeks with the Blue. Here are my latest numbers:



112.9 Swing Speed
158.7 Ball Speed
1.41 Smash
263.2 Carry
14.6 Launch angle
2583 Spin

Swing is definitely lengthening, and I am having to make timing adjustments.

I am definitely hitting the ball further -- but not scoring better. But I feel like I started getting a handle on the tempo over the weekend. Was really striking the irons well on the range, but have to translate that to the course -- yeah, that is the hard part.

I am switching to the red band this week. If I finish April with a consistent 160+ ball speed, I'm going to call this a big success.

Don't tell Coach Ellis I gave in and bought one of these

I'm calling total BS on this contraption...mine shipped this morning.

I haven't noticed a difference yet. Only used 3 times over a course of 2 weeks. Need to get dedicated. I'm still a club short coming out the winter from my normal distances.

User name checks out.

Being 100% serious this thing has changed my golf game for the better. I'm not using it enough but I use it before warming up and it has me hitting it much better with my irons as my wrists are so much more static and allows me to make really good flush contact on line with my target. It has really helped my short game my wedges are so much better than they have ever been. Using this in concert with being much more mindful of not letting my wrists hinge (at all in my head, but the swing naturally does Cock them some) has really turned things around. I've been mid single digits for years but I really think this is going to have a big long term impact to remove some bad things I have always had in my swing (overactive hands and wrists being one of them). Now my driver is still a worm in progress, I have some trouble with a big hook now sometimes like others have mentioned, but it's a case of me not finishing my turn through where before my wrists and hands would "correct" for it.
All in all for $80 I'm def glad I picked it up and this is my first ever golf contraption.

F it. I'm in.

I'm waiting for the day I show up to the course, head to the range, and look over and see the guy next to me stretching with his MISIG as I casually say 'Hey man you TexAgs too?'

Please read up on "stress fractures" for younger golfers and golf performance.. We have much softer lighter stretch cords that you should give a lot of consideration to for younger golfers.

Softer Lighter Cords

Got my first eagle ever this morning. My 2nd shot was a 218 7w to 2 1/2 feet from the pin. Drove well all round, and iron contact was great. So far, so good.

Bernie always comes through!!

Just curious, are most of y'all doing just the stretching, the swing training, or a combination of both? I currently do a variation of both, but curious what those that are gaining real distance are doing.

All I've done is the stretching

Somewhat anecdotal but I can now easily get to 102 mph driver swing speed. Used to have to work at it. Yesterday, I hit my drives to spots I've never been before.

My use of MISIG is not even daily. Whenever I remember to. And when I do, 20 swings at the most.

Email Bernie, I bet he will credit you.

I hit a near 300 yard drive for the first time in 6 or 7 years. I've been doing 10 reps x 3 with the Orange band 2-3 times a week. I also had a lesson over that same time frame.

I hit another bomb the following day but I'm convinced it had to have had assistance from a root or irrigation box or something. No way my ball went as far as it did without hitting something hard. This was in a scramble and my partners were happy when we had wedges in hand laying 1 on a Par 5

My golf game is as good as it has ever been, but yall suckered me in. Placed my order today.
