Abstract: A golf swing training aid for a golfer having an elongated stance positioning member and a plurality of discrete placement indicators having a size generally equal to the size of a standard golf ball extending along the general length of the stance positioning member. A golf ball positioner carried by the stance positioner member extends generally perpendicularly away from the stance positioning member when positioned at a respective placement indicator for positioning a golf ball at a prescribed location within the golf stance of the golfer. The discrete placement indicators assist the golfer in ascertaining the correct heel placement for properly positioning the golf ball within his or her stance relative to the positioning of the golf ball positioner.
