You are spot on about the hard-sell ad copy as well. My husband (the righty) tried it out and liked the way it lined up his grip. The club felt good to him overall, definitely a 6-iron. He did hit good shots with it and he got the backswing right each time if we are reading the instructions right. I decided to really test the guarantee and see if I could hit the ball well with it. Again, we tried the righty and I am a lefty. After an initial obvious awkwardness with getting my hands right I managed to slice the ball about 30 yards. I got acclimated and the second one separated the ball on the device, went straight, and about 50 yards. I started to have a bit of fun with it since I never hit right handed. I did get it to go straight. The magnet seemed to separate and click regardless of how we used it. Overall, we believe it to be a decent tool for your practice arsenal but should not be the only one you use. It's a good piece to take along to the range especially when you're having grip issues. We're firm believers in a lesson with an actual instructor every so often whether you need it or not to keep you straight.
