ABSTRACT:
An improved golf ball has navigational band equatorially encircling it over the hall's top, front, bottom, and rear and a non-equatorial alignment band perpendicular to the navigational band midway between the center of the ball and its rear. The respective bands are made of dashed parallel lines subdued but contrasting in color in relation to the color of the ball. At the points of intersection of these bands, two focal points, contrasting from the ball, are formed upon which a golfer, after the ball, the golfer's stance, the club head, and the target have been aligned, focuses attention. A set of directional marks are set within the navigational band and point toward the intended target. The ball is used by aligning the navigational band with the center of the intended target to form a flight path. The club head is then grounded behind the ball in line with the flight path. The golfer uses the club head and the ball as a guide to position his feet in a parallel relationship to the flight path. The golf club head is then positioned directly behind the ball and aligned for squareness with the navigational band by means of the club head alignment band on the back of the ball. Finally, the golfer puts his attention on the focal point of the ball while maintaining the respective alignments and executes his swing or putt.
