  • Patent number: 4155555
    Abstract: A measuring and display apparatus for discretely presenting various characteristics concerning a practice golf swing. These characteristics include velocity and face angle for a putting stroke and, for a fuller stroke, velocity, face angle (or alternatively, hand position), "sweet spot" miss, and path deviation. Photoelectric sensors in a portable cabinet are used in the full-swing apparatus, thereby avoiding use of sensors embedded in a mat, and hence subject to injury. The cabinet is conveniently supported by legs that are rotatable for use as a handle, thereby making the entire unit quite portable in one, relatively small unit.
