What should be evaluated on how well they improve a golf skill?

• A. Teaching aids
• B. Feedback forms
• C. Training aids
• D. Practice routines

Answer: (C)

Focusing on how well a tool actually helps a golfer improve is about the instruments that directly shape a skill. Training aids are designed specifically to influence the mechanics and consistency of a swing or stroke. When you evaluate them, you look for tangible performance gains over time—better ball contact, a more repeatable swing plane, improved tempo, and increased accuracy or distance control. The key is measurable change in the skill you’re aiming to develop, not just how the tool feels or how instruction is delivered.

Teaching aids serve to convey information or teach concepts, but they don’t themselves drive improvement in a movement. Feedback forms collect opinions or data but aren’t the tool that produces the skill change. Practice routines are the activities used to practice, but the question is about evaluating the impact of the instrument used to facilitate improvement, which is why training aids are the best fit.
