ABSTRACT:
A golf swing training device having a pair of unequal length golf club shafts connected end-to-end along a common axis. The shorter length shaft has a golf grip at one end thereof and a simulated plastic golf ball attached to its opposite free end. The longer shaft has a return bend therein adjacent the end thereof connected to the shorter shaft and a simulated or plastic golf ball attached to its opposite free end. The simulated golf ball on the shorter shaft is used to sight on a golf ball or target on the ground before the golfer when he addresses the grounded ball. The golfer then performs the backswing, the downswing and the follow-through in a practice swing during which the simulated golf balls should traverse the two planes desired for the golfer's swing and provide feedback to the golfer relating to his practice swing without contacting the grounded golf ball. The training club is suitable for practicing club swings for both so called "woods" and "irons". The ratio between the length of the shorter shaft and length of the longer club is selected whereby to teach the golfer the correct swing of the club from backswing to follow-through by means of the feedback information from the plastic balls passing the grounded ball.
