Powerline swing trainer?

Has anyone had any experience with the Powerline? I came across this while trying to find information on McLean's "powerline" concept.

It seems like a novel idea, but the recommendation about using wiffle balls concerns me. Can you imagine skulling one, only to have it ricochet and nail you, ahem, below the belt? I don't think I could take the club back with that in mind.

Good luck bringing that contraption to the range. A few weeks after you buy it, you'll be using it as a clothsline.

$375 would buy plenty of lesson time with Brian.

It definately doesn't look like something that would be taken back and forth to the range and I don't think it is a replacement for lessons with a good instructor, but I thought it looked like a pretty good tool to use on your deck/backyard to work on backswing plane/path, downswing plane/path, club, hand, and arm delivery paths, and post impact path. It looks like it may help people swing more left/right depending on their swing tendancies because it gives visual assistance for doing so.

I wonder when using it while hitting shots, how much skin you'd lose if you did it wrong.
