The gloves provides a solid visual reminder of how the left hand should be aligned on the golf club. I've used it twice now and have seen an improvement on my ball flight.

David Leadbetter
A Full Swing Trainer Short Enough for a Hotel Room
The Short Indoor Club by David Leadbetter is a compact, travel-ready swing trainer built to fit in a suitcase or a golf bag pocket. It replaces Leadbetter's earlier Short Indoor Club with a new build: a stronger feel and better feedback through the swing.
Every club ships with a Grip Check Training Grip already installed, so grip pressure and hand position give feedback on every rep, not just full swings. Leadbetter built it to train a real swing rather than just loosen up before a round: a clean takeaway, a balanced turn, and a sharp finish, worked over 10 to 15 minute sessions.
- Grip Check Training Grip pre-installed on every club
- Trains takeaway, turn, and finish in 10 to 15 minute sessions
- Short enough for a bedroom, office, garage, or hotel room
- Currently built for right-handed golfers; a left-handed version is in development
Key Features
Built to Train the Swing, Not Just Loosen It Up
Grip Check Training Grip
Every Short Club ships with the Grip Check Training Grip already installed. It gives you feedback on grip pressure and hand position on every rep, no separate purchase or install needed.
Compact and Travel Ready
Short enough to pack in a suitcase or a golf bag pocket. Bring your swing work on the road instead of losing it between rounds.
Works in Tight Spaces
Use it anywhere there is a few feet of swing room: a bedroom, an office, a garage, or a hotel room.
New Build, Stronger Feel
Leadbetter rebuilt this version of the Short Club with a stronger feel and better feedback than the earlier Short Indoor Club.
Trains Real Swing Fundamentals
A clean takeaway, a balanced turn, and a sharp finish, the same fundamentals as a full-length swing, worked in 10 to 15 minute sessions instead of a full range visit.
Short Sessions, Real Reps
Built around 10 to 15 minute sessions, so swing work fits before work, between meetings, or at the end of a travel day.
How It Works
Feedback on Grip and Tempo, Rep After Rep
The Grip Check Training Grip is installed on the club before it ships. It reads how your hands sit and how much pressure you're applying, so a loose grip or an overactive top hand shows up immediately instead of hiding inside a normal full-swing miss.
Because the club is short, you can make full turns without needing a range or a backyard. Work the takeaway, the turn, and the finish position in a bedroom, an office, a garage, or a hotel room, then take those same positions to the course.
Leadbetter designed the Short Club for real swing training, not a warm-up stick. Ten to fifteen minutes with the club, focused on one position at a time, builds the same muscle memory as a longer range session.
Who It's For
Is the Short Indoor Club Right for You?
Frequent Travelers
You're on the road for work or golf trips and don't want a week off between rounds to undo your swing work. The Short Club packs in a suitcase and comes out in a hotel room.
Golfers Short on Practice Space
You don't have a range nearby or time to get to one on a weeknight. A bedroom, office, or garage is enough room to work the takeaway, turn, and finish.
Grip and Hand Position Fixers
You know your grip drifts under pressure but can't feel it happening. The Grip Check Training Grip flags pressure and hand position issues on every rep.
Short-Session Practicers
You get 10 to 15 minutes here and there, not a full practice block. The Short Club is built around exactly that window.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What comes with the Short Indoor Club?
The Short Club itself with a Grip Check Training Grip already installed. No separate grip purchase or installation is needed.
Is this a new product or the same as the old Short Indoor Club?
It's a new build of the same idea from David Leadbetter, a compact swing trainer for use anywhere. Leadbetter says this version has a stronger feel and better feedback than the earlier Short Indoor Club.
Is the Short Indoor Club available for left-handed golfers?
Not yet. It currently ships for right-handed golfers only. Leadbetter has a left-handed version in development.
How much space do I need to use it?
Because it's a short club, Leadbetter designed it for tight spaces: a bedroom, office, garage, or hotel room, in addition to a range or backyard.
What does the Short Indoor Club actually train?
A clean takeaway, a balanced turn, and a sharp finish, the same fundamentals as a full-length swing, worked over 10 to 15 minute sessions rather than a full range session.
What does the Grip Check Training Grip actually do?
It's installed on the club before it ships and gives you feedback on grip pressure and hand position on every swing, so a loose grip or an overactive top hand shows up right away instead of hiding inside a normal miss.
Can I use the Short Indoor Club on the road?
Yes. It's built to be compact enough for a suitcase or golf bag pocket, so a hotel room or a quiet corner of a gym is enough space for a session.
How long should a training session be?
Leadbetter builds the Short Club around 10 to 15 minute sessions. Short, focused reps on one position at a time build the habit faster than an occasional long range visit.
Is the Short Indoor Club right for a beginner?
Yes. The training grip flags basic grip and hand position issues that trip up new golfers, and the short sessions make it easy to build a habit without a full practice block.
Can I finance the Short Indoor Club with Affirm?
Yes. Affirm financing is available at checkout so you can split your purchase into monthly payments, subject to eligibility.
What is the warranty and return policy for the Short Indoor Club?
As an authorized David Leadbetter dealer, Top Shelf Golf backs every Short Indoor Club with a 30-day return window in like-new condition. Items returned without original packaging or not in like-new condition are subject to a 25% restocking fee.
