There are so many golf training products available that you probably don't know which one to buy. First, you need to know why you need them and what type of golf training products you may need. Many golfers spend too much money on golf aids without seeing any progress in their game.

Even though you don't have any major problems with your game, there is still room for improvement in some area or other. Maybe you could find a way of getting more distance with your drives or play more consistently; or maybe you should look at some golf strength training aids to help you get fit for golf.

As there are so many types of golf training products, in this article I will go over the top 4 categories that can help you. First, you will have to establish why you are in need of a golf training aid. Once you know the why you will have a better understanding of which particular problem in your golf game you need to improve.

First, you might not need golf training equipment; instead you could start checking out a few golf guides (eBooks) or golf DVD's that deal with a specific topic that may help you. There are many good eBooks and DVD's on helping you with your golf swing, how to fix a slice, golf stretching exercises, golf fitness programs, or general golf lessons. If you decide that you would rather have a physical golf training product, then here are the different categories available:

Full Swing Training Aids: This category is full of training aids but not all of them are good solutions for the complete golf swing. The top choices in this category would have to be the hinged golf clubs such as the Medicus Dual Hinge clubs or the Refiner hinged training clubs. Another good option is the Leadbetter Swing Setter which helps with your grip, release, tempo, and swing plane. Alternatively, try weighted golf clubs from Momentus or a full swing trainer by Explaner.

Golf Fitness Training Aids: These are my favorite golf aids because you will see a marked improvement in all areas of your game once you are fit for golf. The top product in this category is a range of fitness training products from the GolfGym. Again, weighted golf clubs can be used to build up your golf specific muscles and to raise your flexibility level. The Explaner not only improves your golf swing, it also strengthens your golf muscles and increases your flexibility through the use of a weighted roller.

Golf Grip Training Aids: As the perfect golf swing starts with a good golf grip, golf grip training aids are another essential product if you have problems with your grip. These products range from specially molded grips that fit over your regular grip of your clubs to special golf gloves that help you grip the club with the right pressure and the right position every time. Also in this category you will find grip training aids that are designed to strengthen the muscles of your hands and wrists.

Putting Training Aids: As a good putting game can significantly lower your score, there are many golf putting aids to help you perfect this area of your game. Some putting aids use a laser to help you with alignment and others are used to help with the all important aspect of good tempo. For alignment, there are many putting tracks or guides available, and if you need help with the correct position of your forearms and hands, there are several braces that can help.

These are the main categories of golf training products. There are several other specialized categories that are more specific, like; swing plane, golf tempo, alignment, balance, weight transfer, impact position, release, and short game training aids. So, as you can see, there is a specific golf training product for each and every area of the game of golf. Remember, only buy a golf training aid when you have identified the specific area of your game that you need help with or that you want to improve.
