Driver

The Lag Shot Driver is a specialized training club featuring a 45-inch driver-length shaft with an exceptionally whippy blue shaft and weighted black clubhead. Unlike a regular driver, it's engineered to force proper lag creation and smooth sequencing through its heavy, counterbalanced design. You can actually hit golf balls with it—a key advantage over many training aids.How it works: The hyper-flexible shaft naturally drops into the slot on the downswing when you swing with proper tempo and sequencing. Poor swings produce immediate, exaggerated misses (often slices), providing clear feedback without needing swing thoughts. The included training videos from PGA instructor Adam Bazalgette (Scratch Golf Academy) guide users through specific drills, including a recommended "stop at the top" tempo drill and transition acceleration exercises.Best used as a warm-up or range tool alternated with your regular driver—typically 10–15 swings with the Lag Shot, then 10–15 with your driver. Customers gave it 4.45 out of 5 stars based on 106 reviews, and it was awarded best swing trainer of the year by Golf Digest two years in a row. This is a training aid that requires patience, deliberate practice, and commitment to see sustained improvement on course.Key specs: Right or left-handed options available, includes access to video instruction via Scratch Golf Academy app, 30-day money-back guarantee. Weight and counterbalance make it feel significantly heavier and less balanced than a standard driver, which helps train tempo but can feel jarring at first.
