For more than 10 years, Ballard students have been practicing with The Swing Connector. Duplicating Babe Ruth's towel-under-the-armpit theory passed down from Jimmy's mentor Sam Byrd, The Swing Connector helps strap the left arm into place, so you can accomplish connection without tension. Redesigned with state of the art materials.

"Ballard has revolutionized the teaching of golf over the last twenty years as much as Ping has the manufacturing of golf clubs…"
Jim Colbert - Senior PGA Tour Proffesional

"I don't have any questions about what Jimmy tells me is right or wrong. I'm not ever going to work with anyone but Jimmy on my game ever again. If I do, I hope somebody shoots me, and puts me out of my misery, because I'll have lost my mind".
Hal Sutton - PGA Tour Professional

"(Jimmy Ballard is) the best teacher in golf. Period."
Peter Jacobsen - PGA Tour Professional
