TGM 3-D impact bag
Does any of you have any experiences with the 3-D impact bag?

http://www.thegolfingmachine.com/whatsNew/impactBag.php

I'm going to get an impact bag and this one seems to have more functions than the "normal" ones. Is it worth the extra $$?

When i briefly watched their video I thought that some of the "functions" for their 3D impact bag looked very artificial... even pointless...desperate... scraping bottom of barrel ....

Brian Manzella has used one like this for years. Works as a plane instructor as well.

yes
Admittedly some of the functions seems far-fetched ie. the in-to-out-out-to-in path.
But a function like that you can actully hit balls with an impact-hands and impact-shaft-alignment aiming "point" seems as a smart addition to the normal use of an impact bag.

I use one and it works well for the intended applications.

Yoda, do you have a preferred impact bag or will anything do?

I use the standard form of Impact Bag. Also, an old cart tire.

For those interested, I did an Internet search and came up with a few links. Caveat: I am not endorsing these products or their providers.

Izzo has a good product:

http://www.swingsomewhere.com/swings.../1344/3672?g=1

Callaway has introduced a square-sided version:

Gary Wiren's product is widely used and still available:

http://www.dwquailgolf.com/training/impact_bag.html

At some point, LBG will have its own branded product for use in our schools and for sale in the Pro Shop.

That would be the 12 piece bag, and after working on it for a while it'll have red impact indicators
