Two best training aids ever:

I fashioned a home-made style laser club, let me know what you guys think of it. Initial feeling is really good.

First I drilled a hole in the grip cap to accept a pen style laser pointer, the interference fit holds it in place and holds down the button.

Second, I've lashed another laser pointer on top of the shaft just below the grip and shimmed it so the beam aims directly at the sweet spot about 1/4" in front of the leading edge.

From there I just trace both beams along a carpet edge as a straight line.

The first couple swings were very interesting. I had a good sense of plane line tracing already from using the dowels but I never realized where the grip cap was pointing during the takeaway and after the finish swivel. Puts the shaft in a more upright plane when I monitor the cap end along the straight line.

I want to know if you guys see anythig detrimental to this type of set-up or any suggestions to improve it. I'm unsure if the laser should point at the sweet spot or closer to the shaft.
