Product Description
How it works is why it's so effective!The Inside Approach was developed to give golfers a clear visual understanding of where the club needs to be swung as it approaches the most critical point of the swing... the impact zone. To hit solid, accurate shots, the clubface must be square or squaring at impact and the club must be approaching the ball from an "inside" path. The Inside Approach's unparalleled design gives golfers immediate feedback (both positive and negative) on whether they have accomplished this task. The path in which the club is swung directly influences one's ability to square the clubface and thus be consistent. If the club is swung down too steep or from out-to-in, it makes it very difficult for your hands and arms to square the clubface - the result of which is usually an open clubface at impact causing the SLICE (85% of all golfers do this). If you happen to square the clubface when swinging from out-to-in, you may hit a "pull." (Often, you may find that you pull your short irons and slice you longer irons, and especially your driver). When the club is swung down on the correct path, it promotes the proper sequence of movements necessary for your arms and hands to naturally square the clubface. Some golfers have a tendency to hit pushes and hooks. These ball flights are also a result of poor path, however, the path now is being swung too far from the inside or underneath the correct swing plane. The Inside Approach is universally designed to correct both of these undesirable swing paths by giving you safe and instant feedback on whether you have swung the club on the correct path. If your swing path is correct you will miss the cushion; if it is incorrect your club may hit the cushion. The cushion, if hit, is designed to safely break away thus not hurting you or your club(s). This immediate feedback (positive and/or negative) is by far, the most effective method of training a new motor skill.
Amazon.com Product Description
Endorsed by legendary golfer Jack Nicklaus, this Inside Approach portable training device will have you swinging like a pro in no time. The device--which was rated 2004's number-one training aid by Golf Digest--is incredibly intuitive. Just place the lightweight unit directly in front of the ball. As you swing, you'll either knock off the breakaway cushion, indicating that your swing is too steep and will produce a slice, or you'll develop an inside-out swing path that hits the ball straight and true. This instant feedback offers the most effective way to learn a new skill. Even better, you can take the training aid just about anywhere, including indoors, on the driving range, or to the course itself. A favorite of many PGA, LPGA, and Nationwide Tour players, the Inside Approach training aid works with every club in your bag and comes with a handy mesh carrying case and an instructional DVD featuring Jack Nicklaus and Jim Sowerwine. It also includes a full 30-day money-back guarantee.

 Does what it says it will do May 23, 2008

I wish I would have had this product when I started golfing 20 years ago. It is simple, and it works. You obviously have to understand stance and grip before you use this, but it does work. It also does more than work on curing a slice, that is not my issue, but also works on curing hooks and blocks.
You can use the device in a variety of ways and there are many drills you can try. I am giving this a high rating, because it is simple and it works. It is especially good for me to get my tempo slowed down and the right speed.

ITS SIMPLE AND IT WORKS! May 20, 2008

I bought the Inside Approach to help me battle my slice. I tried everything and worked on my grip, alignment, stance, posture, swing speed, etc. I couldn't get rid of the dreaded slice. After buying the inside approach I was hesitant to use it and actually made a couple of swings with it and thought "Oh this thing won't help me, I must have the right swing plane because I am not hitting the pad with my swing." WRONG! When I finally gave in and tried it my first drive was the longest straightest ball I have ever hit. I figured it was a fluke so I hit 9 more balls and 8 of the nine went straight and long. This thing also got me hitting the ball with the sweet spot of my club! I wish I had tried this thing a long time ago.
One thing to note a couple of people who reviewed this said it would not work if you left the club face open. Well of course it won't but it still is a helpful tool because you will know that your problem is not coming over the top but rather an open face, which should be easily fixed with a stronger grip.
If you come over the top and chances are good that you do (if you slice) don't give a second thought to picking one of these up!

This product really helped me to start keeping my golf swing coming from "inside". The optimal way to use this product is to keep working with it on a regular basis until the proper path is memorized to your muscle memory. Very helpful if you keep working with it!

The Inside Approach will help if you are making a severe over-the-top move on the downswing, but it is still quite possible to slice the ball repeatedly when using this on the range (believe me, I did it). This trainer does not fix hitting the ball with an open clubface, one significant cause of a slice. It is also possible to get the clubhead under the pad but still make a glancing blow at the ball, thus imparting the right to left sidespin. The Inside Approach is a good start if you you have a brutal reverse-pivot over-the-top swing...it will get you moving toward the correct swing path. But for fine-tuning your swing this is not for you. Bottom line: Great for beginners and high handicappers, but if you are shooting in the low 90's already this probably will not help much.

Great purchase -
Prior to using this product, I would draw and slice an awful lot - Especially when using my driver and woods. Within a few swings, my shots were straighter and I gained a considerable amount of yardage.
Great for golfers who slice the ball!
The DVD's that come with it aren't the greatest - the only one worth watching is the advanced drills DVD. You'll pick up some great tips there on how to use this to help with your swing path - And how to hit pushes and draws when you need to.
It gets a four because I think it's just a bit overpriced for what you get and the DVD content could be better.
I will say though - that the price is cheaper than going and getting a golf lesson; and . . . my game (drives especially) have improved by leaps and bounds.
