Re: Anyone used "The Swing Glove"?

I have never used one of these, but what bothers me is the same thing that bothers me with the Greg Norman Secret. It makes it very difficult to get into a proper address position. If you have a flat left wrist and bent right wrist at address you will never get the shoulders square, it is not possible. You should have a flat left wrist , club inline at impact, but impact is very different from address position, they should be that way at the top of the swing, but not at address. Take a look at Tigers swing from above and you can see what I am talking about, look at a lot of pro setups and a large majority of them have the left wrist bent back at address, you must do this to get the shoulders square. If the club was in a straight line with the left arm (flat left wrist) the ball would have to be played way back in the stance, or you would have to have a right arm about a foot longer then the left to still have a square shoulder setup. So unless these gloves somehow allow for this setup at address, which I doubt, because if it lets you bend here at address, it will let you bend else where, but as I say, not having used one, I don't know, just my impression of it.
