SKLZ has become the official training aid of the HJGT in 2009. SKLZ will be providing the overall boy and overall girl winner of each HJGT tournament with a Gyro Swing training club. The training club, valued at $220, has the angular momentum of a battery-powered 20,000 revolutions-per-minute gyroscope in the head of the club. The gyroscope forces the club to stay square as you swing it and provides a tactile, buzzing resistance when you swing off-plane or release early. The goal is to swing with the least resistance from the club. When swinging, if you are on plane, you will experience less resistance from the club’s gyroscope.
