Which of the 3 are actually better? Medicus hinge vs Medicus weighted vs orange whip . To me it seems that the orange whip can't really tell you if you did a swing wrong, while the Medicus gives a clear feedback with the hinge. So please share your findings of the 2

I'd probably say the Medicus hinge driver.  I don't get the point of the Orange Whip, especially after I watch the "explanations" on their website.

Is the medicus hinge really a life saver when you can't feel your swing? Or just to keep your swing right?

I think it's more to check positions and if you're off, the shaft bends.  Not getting the club head in any exaggerated places.  And you can hit balls with it.  I wouldn't call any training aid a life saver

I had wondered same thing. You can see videos that even with a bad swing the medicus won't break down. Im sure it works for some people. I tried both out and i actually think the orange whip is very nice. It's has helped me with my balance as well as hand motions. It gives a lag feel that helps with my tempo and as is good for just warming up too IMO. Ive just purchased a pure ball striker as well so I'm curious if using them both together will help me improve even more. Good luck.

Orange whip. Orange whip? Orange whip? Three orange whips please. I couldn't resist. Watch out for the hidden scam stuff if you buy from medicus.

Thanks for the warning, I did read that somewhere and I'm disappointed in them.

I'm buying them from a friend's store.

    • I agree with @dennyjones, a suspension of some meaningful duration would be better than getting bounced from the Tour. They might consider experimenting each week. It might generate a bit of interest. I like the idea of a visible shot clock. If a player and their caddy can’t decide on a strategy and pull the trigger in XX seconds (30? 45? 60?), one stroke penalty. Give each player 2 resets a round. The clock starts when the last player to hit’s ball stops moving. Other pace ideas could be used every couple events until a consensus is reached to adopt or ditch an idea.
