Swingless Golf Club

The swingless golf club allows the athlete to control the distance the golf ball travels once hit, anywhere from 50-200 yards. No swing is required to engage in the sport of golf, as this golf club uses a power strip to provide the energy to hit the golf ball once a trigger is pulled.
