Got a Skytrak installed in the garage and the inability to put an alignment stick in the ground had me wondering what to do.

Here's what I came up for around $20 so I thought I'd share. It's made from a mini tripod camera ball head, can be adjusted a full 360 degrees to give the exact lie angle of every club in the bag.

I am not sure I posted this before in any event, here is something I made out of pvc fittings.  Not near as good as the tripod ball above, but cheap to cobble together.

Great idea too.

I have a pool noodle that I planned to put over the alignment stick until I get more confident in not coming over the top.

Yes, I like Martin's stuff.  A little pricey at times, but usually pretty good. His inflatable "smart ball" is great.

I didn't know Martin made one. I saw people talking about it on here and found this on Ebay. Looks like someone in China knocked it off:

Yes, I subscribe to his You Tube Channel (Tour Striker). Tons of free videos and products. He is also very good at answering comments.  I have purchased several over the years.
