Is anyone using the swingles golf club for handicap guys like me who have balance issues and back pain.

Are they ok to use here or is it a ask for forgiveness after u use it?

You mean "Swingless," correct.

I've never seen anyone use it here, there or anywhere. Obviously it's not "legal" for competition. Playing partners might not like the sound. Then again, it could be a lot of fun testing it in play versus what others are using -- especially after three or four beers.

If you’re playing with friends, and the alternative is you can’t golf, and you’ll be at home - i say use it.

No one who makes a negative comment is playing on the PGA tour here, we are having fun.

Yes swingless. Sorry. I was wondering if TV had an issue. But thanks it would help me.

I agree I have played here for years but have not been able to for almost 4 years. Thanks for your comment!

OP, you should be able to call any of the pro shops to see if there concerns about the use of this type club, if they do not know the answer, they should be able to direct you to the correct source. i would be prepared to carry the approval documentation for non-believers.

I see no issue. Rodney Dangerfield used one in a club tournament.

Thanks

I did see one person using one at Sarasota range but the person using it didn’t appear to be handicapped and it seemed like they were using it because they thought it was cool. I found that very annoying given how close they were to other golfers. I wouldn’t mind someone using it on the course if they’re actually handicapped, but not otherwise.

You could install hardwood floors without a hammer and bending over with one of these 🤣

Ever consider they had back surgery or issues and a swing would put his/her back out? Or they have Parkinson’s and lose balance without warning?
Something to think about before judging and I don’t know many golfers that would want to look cool with a swingless club! Probably last resort before giving it up!

Very cool. We’ve been paired with several people with mobility and pain issues. Some of them end up just chipping and putting. I wouldn’t dream of objecting if someone showed up with this.

And I would prefer to not have to use it.
