ABSTRACT:
The golf practice rod of the invention consists of an elongated tubular anchor for location vertically in the ground and a flexible shaft which extends through the anchor and in use protrudes above the ground to a predetermined distance to provide a target for a person desiring to practice a golf swing. Upward removal of the flexible shaft from the anchor is prevented by a horizontally extending flange, on the lower end of the flexible shaft, which engages the bottom end of the anchor. The upper end of the flexible shaft may be slotted to hold a wafer, which simulates a golf ball. In order to insert the anchor in the ground an implant tube of a size complimentary to the anchor is provided and the implant tube receives the upper end portion of the flexible shaft and abuts the upper end of the anchor. With this construction when the implant tube is engaged by a hammer or the like the anchor can be driven into the ground to the desired depth.
