I struggle to find any consistency in my swing, I know what I should be doing but can't manage it all that often! I wondered if one of those clubs could be the Holy Grail (!)

I have a weighted club with a weight on the end and a moulded grip, though I a replaced the grip with a regular one. For me, the biggest advantage of using such a device is that it's very helpful in making the player iniate the downswing through the lower body (legs) rather then the upper body (shoulder, arms and hands) which is probably one of the first mistakes beginners make.
If you are cash-strapped but would like such a device, get an old club and fill the shaft or head with sand or other, but tbe careful not to make the club too heavy.
