ABSTRACT:
The golf club swing training apparatus has a board on which the positions of the ball and the player's feet are designated for each club. It gives the player a scale of measurement for distances beween himself and the ball and between his feet for each club. It also gives the player the angles for his feet and the relative positions between the target foot and the off-target foot as closer to or farther from the ball. Flags or flexible strips are provided adjacent the ball positions to delineate the path of a club head in a proper inside-out swing. Means are provided to adjust the positions of the ball and the feet to accommodate players of different height and leg length as well as club shaft length. Rocker foot plates with associated signal means are provided to give the player a measurement of his body position on the backswing and the downswing to aid in holding his body without shift on the backswing and to shift the body toward the target on the downswing. The apparatus enables a player to measure his own positions and actions and enables an instructor to graphically demonstrate proper and improper positions and actions to a player.
