  • Patent number: 4852883
    Abstract: Improved golf practising apparatus. The apparatus includes a golf ball replica carried by the apparatus such that the replica can be struck by the head of the golf club when a golfer swings the club. When the golf ball replica is struck by a golf club, the replica rotates about a pivot point and tends to come to a halt in a position generally corresponding to the position in which the replica was struck by the golf club. A golf ball simulating member is formed at the end of an arm integrally connected to a counterweight in the shape of a disc which revolves about a pivot point when the golf ball member is hit with a golf club. The center of gravity of the combined golf ball member and arm is located at a distance from the pivot point which is greater than the distance from the pivot point to the center of gravity of the disc.
