ABSTRACT:
An alignment apparatus and method having three long sections and one short section joined together so that when opened in the proper position, a square is formed. One long section serves as a target pointer, a second long section serves as the ball pointer, and a third long section serves as a body alignment guide. The sections of the invention are joined together in a rotatable fashion so that the device may be opened or closed easily and transported in a golf bag, if desired. When the device is used, one section is pointed at the target, one section is pointed at the golf ball, and the third section forms a reference for positioning of the golfer's feet. The section of the device pointed at the target has an elongated section that serves as a guide for take away of a golf club in a direction directly opposite from the target, as is desired. The portion of the long section pointed at the golf ball also has an elongated end that serves as a reference point for the alignment of the ball to the golfer's body. Further, that elongated end also serves as a reference point for the positioning of the golfer's hands, in front of or behind the ball. Finally, an elongated end on the third long section provides a reference point for the user's feet, either parallel to the line of flight, open to it, or closed to it.
