Hit my lowest score after practicing with Explanar

I have been practicing with the Explanar for a while and I played with my women’s group today and had my lowest score ever! I fell apart on the beginning of the back but ended up with 85 which is my lowest ever. I’m positive with even more practice I will manage a round where both the front and back nine are good!!!

Horrible Winter, but swing feels warm!!!!!!!!

Got my Explanar in December. We have had the 3rd worst winter on record. I have used the Explanar as much as possible for almost 3 months. I just hoped it would do what they said it would do. I played my first rounds of the year last week. I was as straight as I have ever been and did not hit a single wild shot! It also improved my short game as that was straighter as well. I can not wait to continue working on my game with Explanar! Being able to practice correctly 10 minutes twice a day is wonderful. I can't wait for spring! Thank you Explanar!!!!!

RESULTS AFTER JUST TWO DAYS

I assembled the Explanar on Monday but it started to rain so I had to cover it. I was able to manage two 5 min sessions on Wednesday and the same again on Thursday. A total of just 20 mins so far using the long roller with the plane set for driver mode and the whole thing set up exactly for my stature. Today I played at Ferndown and hit 14 out of 14 fairways with the driver. They were all long and straight. I couldn't believe the difference just 20 mins on the Explanar has made. The weather looks wet and windy for the next few days so I probably won't get to use it which is frustrating. Might think about building a wooden cover round it so it can be used in any weather. When the weather improves I plan to have a barbeque/Explanar party for the lads. Excellent purchase, I am so pleased I bought one. Should see my handicap reducing soon I am very confident that will happen.

Reply from Explanar

Hi Rae, thanks so much for writing your review. It's fantastic to hear the Explanar is having such a positive impact on your swing after only a couple of days of practise.

We'd love to hear more about your progress on our Facebook (www.facebook.com/ExplanarGolf) or Twitter (@explanar) pages.

The Explanar saved my golf when a shoulder injury threatened me with retirement.

The Explanar was difficult to put together, basically because the diagrams were not very clear. Contact with the Explanar people was difficult if not impossible via the phone numbers provided. However contact was made with Matt Gadsby and he has promised to save the day. We managed to destroy the plugs that fit the mat onto the frame and we were also missing some nuts and bolts. Having said all this the Explanar is a superb piece of kit. It gives you the FEEL of a correct golf swing. It immediately eradicated a fault that was spoiling my golf in a big way. It taught me keep the club head outside my hands until I was halfway back and ready to hinge to plane. Luther Blacklock's simple instruction with regard to the golf swing in conjunction with the use of the Explanar has re-vitalised my golf. The Explanar can be used inside, so inclement weather does not hinder your practice. The main advantage as far as I am concerned is that you do not need to hit as many balls as I used to to have a worthwhile practice session thus easing the physical impact on wrists and body.

Brilliant!! Wow what a training aid!

I have been struggling to get on the right plane for many years and have been trying lots of different excercises without much luck. I could not break old habits creeping back in. I know how I wanted to swing a golf club, but I could not do it for real. I have tried Explanar for a couple of weeks now, just a few minutes each day at home, and I can feel a real difference when I get out to the driving range. I can't out to practice at all or play during the week, so training with Explanar is helping me develop a good sense of what my swing should feel like, and also increasing my golf fitness at the same time. It's fantastic to have a training aid that I can rely on to help develop my swing without actually hitting any balls. Many thanks to Luther Blacklock for what is truly a magnificent training aid.

Great product, good service and better golf

Explanar is a genuine golf aid which really makes a difference in improving your game. It does what it says it will do and a few minutes investment each day really pays off on the course. It's helping me cure some big deficiencies in my game, not least the slice that's plagued me for years and I would definitely recommend it. I received good service and the ordering and delivery process was smooth.

The finest golf trainer you will ever need

I first used the Explanar with a golf Pro at Vilasol golf club Portugal some years ago. Over a shortish period I lost 5 shots( from15 to 10) Some years have gone by and my golf had deteriorated so that my handicap had gone back to 15 and I had lost rhythm and timing with the swing. I decided to invest in an Explanar,a system I had confidence would be able to help me develop a regular swing. In 3 weeks I have lost 2 shots and am feeling confident in my swing plane rhythm and timing and feel that my handicap will reduce again. For the record I am 75 years old and a member at Quinta do Lago GC.

Time and money well spent.

The results I have achieved with Explanar have been incredible .My clients have been blown away with the change in their golf swings.
luthor was brilliant on the day we set them up .
His knowledge and friendly nature was second to none.
if you want to experience the wow factor get to your nearest Explanar Academy and learn how to swing the Eplanar way.

my wife calls it the time machine

assembly required is an understatement. this is no easy 1 person task.
once completed the product is sturdy and made of good quality.

i am a 2 handicap golfer and i dont know what benefit i am getting from the explanar.
i dont know how to judge my improvement on the explanar. dont feel the like there is a specific training i should be doing.

Nice tool

Construction was okay, the Tool is nice and a good trainingmachine for sure, but at the connection of the lower quadrants is a levelstep, so i have a loud noise when i swing in bottom.

Eureka !!!! If only i had one 25 years ago.

The Explanar is simply brilliant. In no time it has you repeating an improved swing that leads to a more consistent strike and flight without hours of beating balls on the range.
I would recommend any golfer of any age and ability to try this properly under supervision and they cannot help but not see a difference and in time a big reduction in shot dispersion.
I cannot say anymore it is that good. Try it you are daft if you don't.
