ABSTRACT:
A training aid for developing a golfer's swing which comprises a swing assembly having reference markings disposed thereon which define a desired swing path for a golf club relative to the reference markings. The training aid further comprises a light source which continually casts at least a portion of a golfer's shadow and a shadow of the golf club onto the swing assembly in general relation to the markings allowing the golfer to readily visualize and compare his/her swing path with an "ideal" swing path during a golfer's swing. The invention also includes a method of training a golfer's swing, comprising the steps of: 1) providing a swing assembly having reference markings disposed thereon which define a desired swing path for the golf club relative to the markings; 2) positioning a golfer with the golf club proximate the swing assembly; and 3) projecting a light from a light source at the golfer and the golf club both prior to and during a golfer's swing such that at least a portion of the golfer's shadow and the shadow of the golf club are cast onto the swing assembly in general relation to the markings.
