Tour Striker Pro X7 Training Aid Review
Martin Chuck’s line of Tour Striker training aids continue to be popular for a reason. Because he knows what he’s talking about, and they work. The Tour Striker Pro X7 is no exception. But it’s most beneficial for advanced ball strikers, and golfers that have spent time practicing with the original Tour Striker. If you fall into that category and want to take your ball striking to the next level, give the Tour Striker Pro X7 a try. With a little patience and practice, you’ll see positive results just like I have.
Over the last number of years, I’ve been fortunate to get to know Martin Chuck, who’s the founder of the Tour Striker Golf Academy here at the Raven Golf Club in Phoenix.
One of our writers also spent a lot of time working one-on-one with Martin when he was playing professionally years ago.
We both agree that Martin’s not only a great guy, but he’s an amazing teacher and training aid designer.
In fact, his Tour Striker line of game improvement tools has proven one of the most successful in the history of the game.
In today’s review, I want to tell you all about one of Martin’s newest training aids that builds on the success of the original Tour Striker. It’s the Tour Striker Pro X7.
This new iteration is fairly new to the market but has already received rave reviews from golfers whose games have improved because of it.
Let’s take a closer look at how it can help your game too.
Key Features
- Sweet spot that’s the size of a quarter trains you to make solid, flush contact on every swing.
- Training aid teaches you to add lag and deliver the clubface properly at impact.
- Training aid allows you to hit real golf balls.
Who Should Buy the Tour Striker Pro X7 Training Aid?
If you’ve never tried the original Tour Striker 7-iron, you might not want to jump right to the Tour Striker Pro X7. That’s the advice of Martin Chuck, not just me.
The reason being that the Pro X7 is so difficult to hit compared to the original Tour Striker, which is no walk in the park.
However, if you’ve spent some time with the original Tour Striker and are a fairly proficient ball striker, the Pro X7 might just be the training aid you need to take your full-swing game to the next level.
Design and Technology
The design of the Pro X7 is pretty simple, just like its predecessor.
It’s the length and weight of a standard men’s 7-iron. However, the face of the club is inverted and the actual hitting surface is the literal size of a quarter. We’re talking tiny.
Chances are you’re going to struggle when you first start using this training aid. However, with enough practice, you’ll teach yourself to intuitively deliver the sweet spot to impact in the proper fashion. That means the clubface is square to the target, the shaft is leaning forward, and the angle of attack is descending.
Again, the design of the Pro X7 is super simple, but it proves highly effective in practice.
Specs
The Tour Striker Pro X7 is the length of a standard men’s 7-iron.
It’s cast of 433 stainless steel.
The True Temper shaft is uniflex steel.
Our Experience
I’ve been spending quite a bit of time working with the original Tour Striker during my journey to become a single-digit handicap by the end of the year. And there’s no doubt it’s allowed me to see huge improvements in my ball striking.
Only recently have I started working with the Tour Striker Pro X7. And I’ll be the first to admit that it’s really difficult to hit consistently. However, as I’ve continued to practice with it more and more, it’s become easier to hit. And as a result, my ball striking continues to improve faster than it ever has before.
Conclusion
Martin Chuck’s line of Tour Striker training aids continue to be popular for a reason. Because he knows what he’s talking about, and they work.
The Tour Striker Pro X7 is no exception. But it’s most beneficial for advanced ball strikers, and golfers that have spent time practicing with the original Tour Striker.
If you fall into that category and want to take your ball striking to the next level, give the Tour Striker Pro X7 a try. With a little patience and practice, you’ll see positive results just like I have.
