ABSTRACT:
A trailer hitch guide is disclosed for guiding a ball, attached at the rear of an automobile or other towing vehicle, into a position of alignment directly under a socket on a trailer tongue of a trailer or other towed vehicle, the tongue being attached to the top surface of the trailer hitch guide. A v-flange on the bottom surface of the guide guides the ball into the position of alignment. Once the ball is in this position, the trailer hitch guide is removed in order to drop the socket of the trailer tongue over the towing ball.
