I totally disagree. One of my friends purchased the medicus 5 iron last year and it is a good swing aid. I received the refiner as a christmas present this past December and it has done wonders for my swing. I'm striking the ball great, but more importantly I now understand the how and why of my swing. It didn't happen overnight. However, the more I worked with it, everything just started to fall in place. Plus, I'm now winning a good portion of the wagers from the same guys I've played with for the last 7 years. I've swung the medicus and it is a fine piece of equipment but so is the refiner. I don't think you can go wrong with ither club. Oh, by the way, the refiner is cheaper.
