Impact Improver

One of the best new products in the inventor’s corner at the PGA Show was the Impact Improver created by LPGA pro and entrepreneur Tiffany Faucette. It’s for practicing anywhere there’s room to swing a club.

The Impact Improver has two parts.  Part one is the Strike Shield, which sounds like it could be part of a Star Wars movie, but it’s not.  The Strike Shield slips over your iron.

Part two is a specially created impact ball.

With the shield on your club, you drop a ball onto the ground or on your living room floor and hit. When you go through the impact area, the ball sticks onto the Strike Shield to show you where on the face of the club you hit it.  It’s easy to understand, easy to use.

It tells you something you may not be able to find out easily, unless you’re a touring pro.  It shows if you are actually hitting it in the center!

Impact Improver was deemed so good that it was named Product of the Year in the inventor category. Available at for $39.95 at  https://www.fightinggolf.com/products/
