  • Patent number: 5072942
    Abstract: The invention is a golf swing training apparatus comprised of a frame supporting a rail on which is mounted a carriage which moves on the rail. The carriage has a mechanism to engage the golf club so that the golfer can stand within the frame and execute a complete swing while the club moves with the carriage to guide the swing throughout its execution. The track includes a channel having radially inner and outer opposed portions each curved inwardly to the other and separated by an intermediate flat portion. The carriage mounts at least three longitudinally spaced wheels, each on an axial mount adapted for normal disposition to the flat portion, one wheel being radially spaced from at least two other wheels, and the wheels are positioned to roll longitudinally within the curved portions of the channel. The wheels secure the carriage in the channel for guided movement along the circular track.
