Turn swing changes into muscle memory in minutes

SwingMate works as a standalone training tool for golfers who want clearer movement feedback and more repeatable swing checkpoints.

It's versatility is unmatched in its ability to hold multiple alignment sticks relative to each other - locking in precise measurements and movements so every swing is the same.

SwingMate is THE fastest way to learn the basic tenets of the golf swing - swing plane, swing path, hand position and rotation. All you have to do is swing through the rods. THAT'S IT! The gates force you into provide immediate spatial awareness feedback.

Of course, that's the tip of the iceberg. Whether it's taming a swaying habit away from the ball, or positioning a rod that you must touch  on the lead side for lateral forward shift, SwingMate can be positioned for instant, physical pattern recognition.

You'll even find yourself on the course imagining the rods in position, and you just have to pretend you're swinging through them like you do in practice. 

USE IT ALONE, OR PAIR IT WITH STANCEMATE FOR SETUP PERFECTION

If your setup also changes from swing to swing, pair SwingMate with StanceMate to train both the starting position and the movement that follows it.

HAPPY CUSTOMERS

We have several hundred happy customers and dozens of glowing reviews to attest that even just following our basic Swing Plane Drill gave them the fastest improvement they have ever experienced. Then you can add hand path - which is critical to a great swing and often overlooked - and/or rotation drills. Do them separately or all at once.

Just some of the benefits of this revolutionary swing training aid are:

✅ Hinged and rotating rod holders move in multiple planes for precise adjustment. It suits juniors to giants.
✅ Practice anywhere, indoor or out, synthetic or turf.
✅ All packed in a super-tough carry bag with shoulder strap and handles.
✅ All rods included and still only 65cm x 8cm x 6cm (26in x 3.5in x 2.5in)
✅ Fully designed to suit left-handers as well.
✅ Physical rods provide a visual explanation for what you've been trying to understand forever and a day.

Even just swinging through the rods while watching TV and without hitting a ball helps ingrain that muscle memory. 

HOW IT WORKS

Two 600mm ground rods give you visual aids for fade or draw club path, with a central rod directly at the target. 

The ball is set up in the same position every time, between the two longer rods. This means the relative distances to the adjustable vertical alignment sticks is the same for every single swing and every single practice session. No guessing ... precision.

The upright alignment sticks - which come in 1.2m and our custom-built 1.6m lengths - are then set up in our proprietary-designed rod-holder hinges. Move the hinges into the positions outlined in the instructions provided to start with the Swing Plane Drill then add the others. You will be amazed how your brain will understand how to put your body into the position it has always needed to be but you could never quite get right! Then swing a dozen times. Judge the results. Adjust further one way and then the other. See what the differences are. Rinse, repeat, smile.

We truly believe It offers far more flexibility than any other product on the market, at a better price, and with far better outcomes for your golf practice.

SWINGMATE EXPLAINED

Hold one or more alignment rods at any angle.

Correct swing plane, hand path and more. Experiment and learn.

We originally built the SwingMate with a standard “swing plane and hand path gate drill” top of mind.

A gate drill is where you place alignment rods in such a way that you swing through the "gate".

But the possibilities for what drills can be performed is virtually endless. Our patent-pending design utilises easy-adjust ratcheting hinges that show the angles so you can set up super fast every time. (Read more about the product features below)

It also has alignment rods on the ground set to show the target line as well as ideal paths for draw and fade.

Take it to the range - indoor or outdoor. Set up in your garage and go practice your swing whenever you have 10 minutes to spare. Better still, make it a habit to have 20 swings every time you get out of the car. Embed the muscle memory.

OUR Adjustable alignment rod holder hinges ARE OUR PROPRIETARY DESIGN.

Giving you ultimate control with 10 degree increments and adjustable on all planes so you can tailor your training with precision.

HELLO SWINGMATE!

Stryper’s SwingMate comes with an anodised aluminium base plate with T-slot profile.

Our proprietary-designed ratchet hinges alre the ultimate in alignment stick holders. They attach to a base plate so you can rotate them in both horizontal and vertical planes, but also move them closer or further from you.

Additionally, we’ve CNC-drilled holes in the base that provide stabilisation, and at the same time insertion of more rods at 4 degrees to the target line to give a visual guide to a Draw or Fade swing path.

While 90% of golfers struggle with a slice, we also cater for those who hook with the opposite angles also available as a visual aid to tame your in-to-out path. 

Unlike other products on the market, we didn’t leave out the left-handed golfers. SwingMate is symmetrical and Leftie simply uses the different holes as marked on the base plate.

SWINGMATE KEY FEATURES

USE INDOORS OR OUTDOORS

The idea for Stryper products started when we got frustrated we couldn’t do our favourite alignment stick drills on the indoor range, or the artificial tee box on the outdoor range. Of course, you can use it outdoors as well.

MULTIPLE-AXIS ADJUSTMENT

Most other alignment rod holders don’t allow angle AND rotation of rods, AND also able to have them set up accurately in relation to other rods. The hinges are adjustable for vertical angle of your alignment rods and also spin on the horizontal axis. You can also slide them on the base for precise fine-tuning.

QUICK ADJUST
ROD ANGLES

Based on our own proprietary hinge design, you can quickly change the vertical angle of the alignment sticks to suit swing plane, hand height or many other drills. And we have the angles printed right there on the hinge so you know exactly where you are at all times. Leave them set up, or write down what the best angles are for your drills.

USE ONE,
OR MANY

Each base comes with two hinges which will get you started. Add another SwingMate hinge (or even another SwingMate for in front or behind you) and the types of drills you can achieve are almost limitless.

WORKS WITH
SIMULATORS

There’s no problems with SwingMate or StanceMate blocking the view of your ball when using Trackman or other launch monitors or simulators.

What drills can I do?

Head over to the KEY DRILLS page. But this is just a starting point. You are limited only be your imagination.

TAKE IT SLOW AND BUILD UP.

Obviously don't step up and go for a full swing on your first try. By the same token, once you know what you're doing, don't be afraid to swing away. We have absolutely punished the products in testing, they take some serious abuse before anything breaks.

While you would have to be swinging wildly offline to hit the SwingMate in any way to cause harm to you or your clubs, you still need to take it slow. The way to better golf is not full swings straight off the bat, but doing slower drills to gain muscle memory. “Feel versus real” as they say. Build up from slow before you start hitting full shots.

When you’re ready to challenge yourself, build your speed, making sure you don’t slip into old habits. Increase the speed to 50% then 70, then 90, then full speed. Whenever your shots start to become erratic, go back a step.

 

BACK TO TOP

What is a draw and why does everyone talk about it?

Let’s start with why golfers are chasing the elusive draw. When you hit a ball in a slight in-to-out path it puts spin characteristics on the ball that makes the ball go further. It has less backspin than if you hit it with an out-to-in path. So, especially when it lands, it will roll out further.

Hitting longer shots means you are closer to the hole with each successive shot, and that means you can use a shorter club for your next shot, which is more accurate when aiming at the green. (A shorter club is easier to be more accurate).

Hitting a ball with an in-to-out path means the ball will curve from right to left (for a right-hander). So you need to aim slightly to the right of the Target to allow for the curve so the balls lands back in the centre. It spins its way back to the centre line. This is called a DRAW.

When someone hits a beautiful draw – with ball compression that feels buttery smooth off the club face and rolls out further than your buddies - you’ll often hear people say “Gee, you striped that!”. That’s where the name Stryper comes from.

In case you were wondering, a draw is not always the best shot! If a right-handed player has a bunker on the right side they may want to play a dead straight shot or even play what’s called a FADE or a CUT – one that starts to the left of the target for a right-hander - to minimise the risk of ending up in the sand.

There is nothing wrong with these shots, they just don’t go quite as far, which means you’ll need to use a “longer” club to achieve the same distance. As we learned above, longer clubs are slightly harder to be accurate.

SwingMate also has the option to practice these types of shots by using the FADE holes.

We recommend starting with three key drills. Swing Plane, Hand Path and Rotation. You can do them one at a time (but Swing Plane and Hand Path we recommend should always go together), or you can also get as creative as you like.

Using three hinges you could set up all three of these rods and practice with or without a ball, in your garage or on the range or on a simulator.
