ABSTRACT:
A golf trainer device is disclosed as including a frame defined by a pair of generally rectangular frame sections arranged in side-by-side vertical, upright positions with a rear hinge connecting the two sections and permitting folding thereof between a side-by-side position and a V-shaped position, connecting rods between the two frame sections for retaining the same in the V-shaped position; upper and lower horizontal flexible nets spanning the space between upper and lower portions of the two frame sections, respectively; a pair of vertical flexible nets, one attached to each frame section; a vertical flexible fabric sheet fixed to the horizontal nets intermediately between front and rear vertical legs of the frame sections so as to present an impact area for a driven golf ball; the flexible fabric sheet being made of a fabric stronger than the horizontal and vertical nets to absorb the impact of a driven golf ball; removable attachments for each connecting rod whereby the rods may be removed to permit folding of the two frame sections from the V-shaped position to the side-by-side position; a skirt portion on the lower horizontal net extending beyond the front vertical legs of the frame sections to facilitate return of a driven golf ball; the lower horizontal net being inclined downwardly toward the front vertical legs for returning a driven golf ball to the skirt portion; and, wherein the horizontal vertical nets are made of transparent material so that light may enter the device.
