ABSTRACT:
A golf trainer to assist and train a golfer to putt properly, to hit straight drives and to "work" the ball by hitting a draw or hook when desired and a fade or slice when that is desired. The trainer includes a pair of spaced apart telescoping legs which border a guide path, slidably connected at their rearward ends and not connected at their forward ends to provide an opening for the guide path in the direction the ball is to be putted or driven. The telescoping legs may be lengthened and shortened to vary the length of the guide path, and slidably moved closer together and farther apart to vary the width of the guide path so as to correspond with the width of the head of whatever club is to be used with minimum clearance on either side. The trainer also includes a pair of length adjustable foot positioning members pivotably connected to any of a plurality of cavities in one of the telescoping legs to extend outwardly therefrom at a substantially right angle, each one of the pair being spaced apart corresponding to the distance the golfer's feet should be spaced apart when in the address position. The trainer is collapsible or retractable for carrying and storage, and easily reconstructable or extendable when desired for use.
