ABSTRACT:
A golf putter practice device comprising a movable indicator and a plurality of separate depressions or channels with one of said depressions or channels defining a path normal to the face of the putter and with the other depressions or channels defining angular paths with respect to the putter face so that, upon impact with a golf ball, the momentum imparted to the indicator will cause it to move forwardly into one or more of the depressions or channels dependent upon the orientation of the putter in relation to the ball upon impact therewith. This enables corrections to be made to the putting stroke if the indicator shows that during the previous putt, the club face was not properly positioned with respect to the ball upon impact. The movable indicator may take the form of a steel ball which is retained in its initial position by a magnet. To avoid a distraction to the golfer, a pivotable plate or cover may be provided to obscure the indicator elements from view during the putting stroke.
