ABSTRACT:
A practice device for hitting a ball is provided which includes a housing and a device for attaching the housing in a relatively fixed position, and a line connector and a suitable device for attaching the connector in a relatively fixed position spaced from the housing. A line guide is also provided which extends between the housing and the connector for guiding the movement of a tethered ball when it is struck. A suitable line or cord connects the tethered ball to a movable indicator arm mounted on the housing for indicating the equivalent distance that the tethered ball is hit. In addition, the practice device is also provided with a device for indicating the height that the tethered ball is hit, as well as a left-right indicator for indicating the left-right angle at which the tethered ball is hit. In a preferred embodiment, a cord storage device, which includes a reel, is provided for winding up and storing cord.
