In a previous blog posts, I have reviewed the Medicus golf club and the Refiner golf training clubs. Both of these golf swing trainer aids are what are known as hinged swing trainers as they have a hinge that breaks open if there is a fault in your golf swing.

Today I will compare Medicus vs Refiner to show you the differences and the similarities between the two. First, I would like to point out that both products offer excellent quality and also they perform as they are designed to. In other words, they will both help you correct a swing problem.

First up are the hinged swing trainers from Refiner Golf. Not as well known as the Medicus golf club range of golf training clubs, the Refiner deserves more recognition. Refiner Golf concentrates just on their hinged swing trainers while Medicus also has a line of weighted swing trainers and other golf training aids.

I have said it before, but I will say it again; you have to be fit for golf to see any major improvement to your game. A golf fitness training program is all you need to blast your drives 30 to 50 yards further down the fairway than your golf buddies.

Now wouldn’t that feel good; in less than 30 days you could be powering your drives straight down the fairway and amaze your friends with your new found power. It is possible, you just have to forget conventional “wisdom” that says you have to buy the latest hot driver in order to increase your distance of the tee.

Here’s a secret; the newest technologically advanced and improved clubs and balls that promise an extra 50 yards distance will hardly gain the average golfer a couple of yards. Yes, a professional or highly proficient golfer will be able to achieve those extra yards because they knew what was needed to take their game to the next level.

What the top 5% of golfers know is that to get more distance, consistency, and lower scores, a golfer has to be fit for golf. More distance comes from a faster swing speed which comes from more power. How can you create more power? By working on your golf specific muscles and your flexibility you will have the ability to out hit and out play the majority of average golfers.

There is no getting away from it; if you are unfit you can not expect to play your best golf. You have to be fit for golf to realize your full potential and also you will get more enjoyment out of the game.

The majority of golfers only concentrate on their golf swing and how to get more distance, accuracy, and consistency. Well guess what? All of those things will come to your game if you are fit for golf. Golf & fitness go together whether you like it or not.

It wasn’t until Tiger Woods burst onto the golf scene in the 90’s that other golfers realized the importance of being fit for golf by performing golf specific stretching exercises and working on golf specific muscles. After all, how do you think he gets so much effortless power into his shots?

Fitness training for golf can take on many forms – you could buy a golf fitness DVD or book, but there is a chance that they will only collect dust in your closet. What you need is a complete golf fitness program developed by professionals that know what they are talking about.
