ABSTRACT:
A golf putting training device for a golfer comprising an elongate rigid support member, a pair of arm-embracing members for receiving therethrough and partially encircling the golfer's forearms, each arm-embracing member mounted on the support member for longitudinal movement relative to the other arm-embracing member and for independent pivotal movement relative to the bar about a pivot axis extending substantially perpendicularly of the longitudinal extent of the bar. The arm-embracing members each comprise a tapered, tubularly formed sleeve having a larger diameter at one end of the sleeve for fitting snugly over the golfer's upper forearm adjacent the crook of the elbow and a smaller diameter at the opposite end of the sleeve for fitting snugly over the golfer's lower forearm adjacent the wrist. The sleeves are mounted on the bar by threaded bolts which pass through the sleeves and an elongate, generally longitudinally arranged slot formed in the bar and are held thereon by manually adjustable wing nuts on each threaded bolt. The wing nuts may be hand loosened and tightened to permit longitudinal sliding of each bolt in the slot for adjusting the longitudinal spacing between the sleeves and pivotal movement of each sleeve about the bolt passing therethrough as a pivot axis for adjusting the angular position of the sleeve.
