Smart Ball Protocol

The Smart Ball inspires and encourages better structure and connectedness of your arms in your swing. If your arms tend to separate in your backswing or collapse coming into impact, the Smart Ball will help you understand how the arms and body work during an effective golf swing. By focusing on the sequence of the arms and body, you can own the rhythm and timing required to become a high-level ball striker. Follow the protocols and take control of your swing!
