I find myself messing around trying to make sure I'm gripping the club in a fundamentally sound way on an all too frequent basis.

Has anyone ever used one of these?

I like the idea of being able to use it on my normal clubs, rather than having to re-grip a spare club.
 
I've got one and find it ok for checking up the grip. For thinner golf grips I'd be wary of it slipping down as if you pull it tight up then this might not leave enough room for left hand. I used it on Golf Pride Multi Compound with 3 wraps but have recently moved to mid size but not used it with them. I'll try it on the midsize at lunchtime and let you know if you're interested.
Ensuring the white line on the tool lines up with the centre of your grip/shaft takes a wee bit of getting used to unless you could take a white marker and mark the centre of the grip. What I would like is a cut down shaft with a grip and clubhead that could be picked up at the desk at work or couch at home but still to get that sorted.
It's easy to hit shots with. If you want to tr before you buy I could post it to you to try, I'm in Ireland though so might take 3-5 days.
 
Excellent tool if you are struggling with your grip, as I was. David Leadbetter produces a similar grip that my pro fitted to an old driver. I still use it to check my grip occasionally.

Thanks for the offer Albanach - for the sake of £15 though, I think I'll just go ahead and buy one. I can't see that it will do me any harm!

Thanks everyone.
 
I bought something similar off Direct Golf with one of the discount cards that comes with the magazine. I keep it in the practice bag and slip it on at the range from time to time just to get a confirmation the right hand in particular isn't too far under the club.
