ABSTRACT:
A golf swing practice device (10) having an elongate flat guide member (11) defining a lineal guide edge (26) adapted to be placed on the ground adjacent to a golf ball (25) to be struck with the lineal guide edge (26) extending parallel to the desired and intended line-of-flight (28, 39) of the golf ball (25); an upstanding L-shaped guide element (14) having a vertical leg (15) and a horizontal leg (16) defining a swing plane stabilizer; a fastening device (13, 20) extending through an elongate vertical slot (19) formed in the guide member (11) and through the horizontal leg (16) formed on the swing plane stabilizer (14) so as to separably, but fixedly, secure the guide element (14) to the guide member (11) in any desired adjustable position along the length of the slot (19); and, a phantom tee (21) separably coupled to the guide member (11) adapted to be position forward of the golf ball (25 ) along the intended line-of-flight (28, 39) thereof for defining the intended bottom of the golfer's (29) swing when using long, intermediate and/or short irons, so as to induce the golfer (29) to commence his/her backswing with the club head (34, 38) passing closely adjacent to and somewhat beneath the level of the swing plane stabilizer (14) and to cause the golfer's downswing to follow a desired inside-out trajectory (35) and to impact the ball (25): (i) either at or just after reaching the bottom of the golfer's swing when using woods; and, (ii) during the golfer's downswing when utilizing long, intermediate and short irons.
