Abstract: A golf club, in particular for putting, with a club shaft, a club grip and a putting slide, wherein the putting slide (4) consists of a base body (5), which in a view from above, is embodied to be T-shaped and has a transverse leg (6), a putting face (S) and a longitudinal leg (7) having a metal core (8) with a shaft base (9) for the club shaft (2) which is fastened in the longitudinal leg (7), and wherein the upper area (10) of the shaft base (9) and the club shaft (2) with the club grip (3) are at an angle (.alpha.) of between 10.degree. and 20.degree. in relation to a vertical plane.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for learning and practicing a correct hip rotation in all types of sports, in particular a correct hip rotation for the execution of an efficient golf swing. The device is a continuous length of wire formed to constitute straight parts which form radially shaped first ends acting as a pointer and angled parts at a second end connected so as to enable fastening in the hip region with the pointer extending essentially radially to the longitudinal axis of the torso to make the rotation of the hips visible during the swing motion. The straight parts may be length adjustable.

Abstract: The training device for improving the golf swing includes a base provided with spatially positioned guide means for interaction with the face of a golf club head. The base has two rods disposed at an angle to each other, one rod being in the form of an arc segment and the other rod being straight and extending parallel to the target line. The guide means includes an obliquely upwardly extending barrier rail mounted on the arcuate rod and delineating the path of the upstroke of the golf swing.
