Abstract: An alignment element for a golf club formed of a transparent material having first and second references marks. The reference marks are oriented upon the element so that when the element is affixed to a golf club, preferably a putter, the second reference mark is magnified when the first reference mark is oriented between the viewer and the second reference mark. Preferably the second reference mark is a contrasting color, lighter than the first reference to give the appearance, when viewed from above, of a darker line superimposed on a lighter magnified line. When affixed to a golf club, the alignment of the first reference mark with the magnified second reference mark is used to assist in positioning when addressing the ball.
