Abstract: The present invention relates to methods of exercise for golf swing training. The methods include providing a training device, comprising a handle and a resistance; grasping the handle with only the forward hand of the user; and moving the handle in opposition to the resistance to simulate at least one of a downswing and a follow-through without striking a golf ball.

Abstract: A straight line wiper of the kind where a belt or chain drive (1) on two pulleys or gear wheels (2, 3) and driven by a motor (10), drives a wiper (4, 5) along a straight line path driven by movement of the upper flight of the belt (1) in one direction and by the lower flight in the reverse direction between two ends of stroke potions (6, 7). The apparatus includes a motor speed profile arrangement which reduces the speed of the motor (10) as the wiper (4, 5) approaches each end of stroke position (6, 7) and increases the motor speed as the wiper (4, 5) moves away from each end stroke position (6, 7).
