  • Golf training device
    Patent number: 6482099
    Abstract: A golf training device which clamps onto the shaft of a standard golf club. The device has a holding block which holds a laser pointing in a downward direction. A hinged mirror at the light emitting end of the laser causes the laser light to be reflected at roughly a ninety degree angle and thereby run parallel to the ground. An alignment strip and separate target helps the user calibrate the training device so that the laser beam is perpendicular to the flat head striking area of the golf club. The alignment strip can then be removed allowing the user to move the target to any reasonable distance. In this way a golfer can learn the proper alignment of club head to hole thereby improving his or her ability to accurately putt a golf ball towards and into the hole. The hinged mirror on the training device of the present invention can also be swung down so that the laser light is pointing straight down.
