  • Core putting stroke trainer
    Patent number: 9943743
    Abstract: A putting trainer that teaches a golfer to practice a repetitive putting stroke while maintaining the golfer's hands and arms connected to the golfer's core torso body portion. The trainer teaches the golfer to eliminate excessive use of the hands and arms by synchronizing the movement of the putter with the golfer's spine and core body structure. The trainer uses a core attached yoke, a connector coupling the yoke to a putter and a visual indicator for the golfer to determine the relationship of the putter to the golfer's core.

  • Golf putting training device
    Patent number: 5342055
    Abstract: A device for teaching a golfer a putting stroke along a preselected path while maintaining the putter head in a precise relationship to the path, including an elongated rod having a neck-engaging member and a quick release connector for attaching the rod to the putter head. The length of the rod is adjustable and defines the radius of the arc of motion of the club relative to the golfer, whereby a putter is constrained by the device to swing in a precisely defined path to teach the golfer a repetitive stroke. An indicator loop attached to the rod enables the golfer to monitor the position of the putter shaft within the loop as a putting stroke is made.
