Speed is becoming increasingly vital in golf, with younger elite golfers already outdistancing seasoned professionals. To stay competitive, golfers need to focus on their foundational skills and 'own the ground.' The Bal.on device plays a key role in this, as it provides insights into ground forces, balance, and weight distribution during swings.
