I don't think you can go wrong with ither club. Oh, by the way, the refiner is cheaper. |
If someone had given me a Refiner, then I would not have an issue with it. The Refiner only works on a single "hinge", the medicus has several hinges and will catch more of your problems in the various stages of your swing than the refiner will. That is one reason the Medicus costs more. it has a more complex "hinge. Have had my medicus for about 4 years and the hinge system has yet to wear out. it has done hundreds of hours on the range from me and my friends. The 5 iron holds up and just works. Best $150.00 I spent. I think the 5-iron is cheaper now. I don't buy refiners claim that medicus hinge is prone to wearing out faster
But both are better than a non-hinge swing trainer. I would say the biggest thing either will teach you is a to slow down your back swing. Slow, slow, slow is what either will put into your swing.
