Smile Shooting buddy

Hey guys, was just looking around the net and came across sumthing call the shooting buddy, so i checked it out and it's sayd to make ur elbow straight thru muscle memory training and i though of gettin it coz its only like 25$$ with delivery to Aus and trying it out see if it works coz srzly, if u elbow is straight , no "flying" elbow ur shot will go straight and u can work on other things like release and arc. checkit out tell me wat u think and if anybody has it, does it work?

You shouldn't waste your money unless you have tried to correct your problem for a long time but to no success.
Other method to solve this problem includes tapping your elbow against your stomach before you shoot to remind you of not sticking out your elbow.

You really should not have bought that before trying to correct ur problem. anyway there other products like 'The Bandit' that are better.

Ye, i didnt buy it , i was about to then i though id ask what all ur guys opinion is. also other products u mentioned like "the bandit" is really nt better, i mean all it does is keep ur elbow at a 90degree angle which i found very easy to do by myself. also the bandit costs like $20 more, i have tried correcting it in the past with no real success, i cud do the reminded but from what i gathered muscle memory wud be the best way and fastest way to gain it is this thing, shootingbuddy, iono
