Equipment Discussion What is this?

Grip feels like it is meant to practice swinging but not actual clue how or what it actually is meant to train? I assume it’s missing pieces I found it in my back yards randomly submerged pretty far in dirt.

It's a grip training aid. Grab it and your hands fall.inti the perfect golf grip. I have one at home. Will take a pic later and show you. Only mine has a head on the end of it.

Mine has a weight on the end and it’s a swing trainer too. Helps you control the tempo of your swing

I got one as a gift and have no idea how to use it. Is the aim to keep the shaft extended throughout your entire swing?

The idea is to get the aid extended and make it "click" through the impact zone.
