Subject: Arm-Leg Coordination
With all of the gadgets out there to help us with our golf swings,
anyone make something that helps coordinate the hip/leg turn and
the down swing? When I do it right, I can feel it, but it often feels
like there should be some device which makes a series of sounds or
something that tell you that you're timing is right. Anyone know of
any such thing?

That one looks interesting.

To the OP I would say video, or maybe someplace like GolfTec.

A couple drills that might be helpful:

Chair drill: Place a chair to your right, so that the back of the
chair is about an inch from your right hip (assuming RH player).
Don't touch the chair on your backswing.

At the start of the downswing, you want to rapidly increase
the distance between your hips and the back of the chair.

Tie drill: Wear a necktie. At address, the tie should hang
down without touching your body. It should do the same
thing at the top of the backswing.

Lights up, vibrates and beeps when you swing incorrectly.
I've used it. Works well.

Well, they do make devices which make a series of noises when your
timing ISN'T right.

They're called your buddies.

The best answer I have is an encouraging swing coach. :)
