  • Patent number: 5116057
    Abstract: A golf training aid comprises a cuff for releasable attachment about the wrist of the golfer's leading arm and a sleeve for releasable attachment to the grip of a golf club. A hook Velcro patch is attached to the cuff and a pile Velcro patch is attached to the grip sleeve such that when the golfer grasps the club the Velcro on the cuff attaches to the Velcro on the grip. When executing a short stroke such as a putt, the wrist of the leading arm should stay close to the grip. If it does not, the Velcro patches separate creating an audible noise informing the golfer of the incorrect movement.
