Pros:
Bright light, lightweight, easy installation, intermittent mode, compact, pouch
Cons:
Finicky to adjust
I ordered this because I was curious how it could help with my putting practice and now I know. In golf terms, it helps with your “face to path”. The face would be aiming the light at the target. The path is keeping that beam aimed at the target throughout your whole swing. A simple line on your putting mat accomplishes face. Where this really helps is with the path. If you notice the beam swinging widely side to side, you know you should put some work in controlling path.
Intermittent mode helps with face but because it turns off right away, it doesn’t help with path. If you don’t have a line, like on a real golf green or your living room carpet, intermittent mode gets you pointed in the right direction. Turn on continuous when working on your path and once you have that under control, put it on intermittent. Path affects your putting when it’s widely off. If it’s corrected, then face becomes more important.
For $20 at time of review, I think this is a reasonable investment to make in helping your putting game. It’s very compact, with its own pouch, and won’t take up much room in your bag. It’s easy to install, so clipping in on takes seconds. Use it for the first few swings to check your path and then turn on intermittent to help with your face/aim. Use it before your next round and if it saves just one stroke, it’s worth it.
