yeah, i got that for like my fifth bday and just started using it. Because im rich and all, we own a golf course, club, and all that good stuff!
the best way to learn a golf swing is to go out and hit golf balls. practice makes perfect. you have to find whats best for you and dont rely to heavy on gimmicks. some of them sorta work but for people who know how to play golf already
i used a momentus and it improved my distance, but not anything else in my game. it made my clubs feel uncomfortably light when i played. the best (and cheapest) training tool is a friend who knows the proper way to swing a club. just ask them to show you one day and once you learn it just go somewhere with room to swing and practice hitting an invisible ball. the medicus (the club that bends when not swung correctly) will help you maintain the proper swing once you have the general idea of the proper swing.
I personally like the Matzie ASSIST. It is a funny looking practice club that has a couple of bends in it. It has a training grip on it and really helps with the release of the club. That is what I have all of my students use anyways. THey have several different models, pro, regular, ladies and even a junior in right and left hand.
A lot of them have been sold – but there is no easy quick fix to learning a proper golf swing. If you spent the money for the momentus on range balls you would probably be better off.
