Medicus Dual Hinge 7-iron Trainer
Medicus Dual Hinge 7 Iron Medicus is chosen by golf pros as top swing trainer club in the world. Try now! 
Like most golfers, I had seen videos of the Medicus driver being demonstrated, mostly by PGA Tour pro Mark O’Meara. And like most golfers I wondered, "does that ridiculous looking thing really work"? One day I got motivated and went to the nearest golf megastore which has a driving range and a Medicus driver demo club.
The First Swings Come With Trepidation
The first sensation you get is that the head of the club is rather heavy. This feels funny at first, but what the heck, this is a trainer and not a club you will be using on the golf course.
The first couple of swings come with a certain amount of trepidation. It is hard to swing a club, especially a fairly heavy one, when you are expecting the thing to break into two sections at the hinge somewhere during your swing.
There is almost a feeling that the club head is flopping around and will hit you in the head. A couple of practice swings calmed the nerves a bit, and I teed up my first ball and swung away, half expecting some sort of disaster. As it happened, I managed to hit several balls without having the Medicus driver break down and become unhinged.
I then tried a few other normal drivers, and I must say that having used the Medicus driver beforehand seemed to make them feel light and easier to swing. And at least I knew there was no chance the regular driver would break in half on my downswing!
Designed to Break Down at Six Different Parts of the Swing
The Medicus driver is designed to break down when swing flaws are detected in six different parts of the golf swing. The first, and perhaps most important place the Medicus might break down, is on the initial backswing about a foot or so away from the ball. You need to take the club back low and slow or the Medicus driver will become unhinged.
You also need to take the club head back with your arms and shoulders and without any initial wrist cock. Many mid-high handicap golfers will jerk their driver back and immediately break their wrists. And they wonder why they hit poor tee shots and never improve their game, no matter how many hours they practice.
If you are a golfer who makes a Medicus driver break down on the initial backswing, you need to have one of these clubs to practice with. If you learn to take the club back low and slow and in one piece, your game will certainly improve. If this shoe fits then the Medicus driver is perhaps the best golf investment you will ever make.
Medicus Driver Break Points 2-6
The second place the Medicus driver might break down is during the backswing, about when the club head gets to waist high level. At this point the toe of the club should be pointing upward, and if it is too flat or too far over the front, the club will break down. Break point 3 is at or near the top of the backswing. If the club face is not square, the Medicus driver will again break down. Break point 4 is at the beginning of the downswing.
If the golfer breaks his wrist too quickly, almost like someone who is casting a fishing rod, the club will become unhinged. This will also occur if the golfer does not keep his arms in close to his body and moves them outward. Break point 5 is at impact. The swing fault here occurs when the golfer sways too much and moves his weight to the rear.
If the golfer’s weight is too far behind the ball at impact, the Medicus driver will break down. Lastly, the Medicus will become unhinged during the follow-through if the club does not stay on plane. If the follow through is flat and looks like someone who is swinging a baseball bat, the Medicus driver will again break down.
Do You Have Any of Those Swing Flaws?
Unless you have used a Medicus driver, you probably do not know for sure. But if you practice with a Medicus on a regular basis, you will know your swing is on plane and in good shape. OK, it won’t turn you into another Tiger Woods, but then again buying a super-expensive pair of running shoes won’t turn you into a great track star either.
What the Medicus driver can do, however, is give you the feedback you need to become the best golfer you can be off the tee. And playing well off the tee is important. Remember, the driver is normally used on 14 out of 18 holes in a round and is the second most used club in the bag, next to the putter. A good drive can make par look easy on a hole, while a bad drive can lead to disaster. Improvement in this phase of the game can help almost any player.
