A golf putting training device is described. In some implementations, the golf putting training device comprises a body having a first elongate portion and a second elongate portion that are joined by a center portion having an arcuate recess at a proximate end of the first elongate portion and the second elongate portion, with the first elongate portion and the second elongate portion forming a channel that has the arcuate recess at a proximate end and an opening at a distal end. The golf putting training device further comprises two guide pins, with each of the first elongate portion and the second elongate portion including a first mounting aperture pair disposed near a proximate end and a second mounting aperture pair disposed near a distal end, as well as one or more guide aperture pairs, each pair constructed to receive the two guide pins.

A training, rehabilitation, and recovery system comprises an exercise apparatus including a user interface member coupled to a plurality of links and joints, brakes capable of resisting movement of at least a subset of the links or joints, and sensors capable of sensing movement at the joints or the user interface member. The system also includes a processor configured to receive from the sensors positional data of the links or joints over an initial movement of the apparatus by a user, from which positional coordinates of the user interface member are calculated and a reference trajectory is established. An end space is defined based on the reference trajectory. Over a subsequent movement of the apparatus by the user, the processor receives additional positional data and determines a completion of a repetition based on the positional coordinates of the subsequent movement and the defined end space.

An apparatus for demonstrating how golf balls interact with golf clubs includes a downswing plane, a club shaft attached to the downswing plane, a golf club head attached to the club shaft, and a collision-plane indicator attached to the golf club head wherein the collision-plane indicator illustrates the plane created by two intersecting lines that are in the direction of the path and the direction of the club face. Preferably, the downswing plane has an adjustable angle, and preferably the downswing plane swivels. Preferably the club shaft is pivotally attached to the downswing plane. Preferably the apparatus includes a removable golf ball with a spin axis through the middle of the ball, and with a black line across the middle of the ball that indicates spin direction perpendicular to the ball's spin axis.

A swing training assembly includes a shuttle, a shuttle travel track, a tensioner, a shuttle displacement line and a shuttle pulley. The shuttle resides in the shuttle travel track and the shuttle pulley and shuttle displacement line are adapted to linearly displace the shuttle to different shuttle positions within the shuttle travel track in response to displacement forces applied to the shuttle pulley by a user pulling on the shuttle displacement line. The tensioner provides an opposing counter-force to control the rate of shuttle displacement. The swing training assembly may also include body positioning limits to maintain proper body alignment while the user pulls on the shuttle displacement line.

A swing training system includes a base unit having a grapple that is movable between open and closed positions. A free end of an elongated swing device, such as a golf club or a hockey stick, is secured within the grapple. The swing device is manipulated to exert a force on the grapple and a load cell, away from the base unit, for a predetermined value, such as force and/or time. Relative movement between the grapple and the base is substantially limited while the swing device is manipulated. Once the predetermined value is attained, the grapple releases the free end of the swing device.

A golf training device comprised of a planar quadrilateral-shaped adjustable frame having vertically extendable sway bars that assists a golfer to establish a proper stance and “body turn” during a golf swing is disclosed. The device can be easily setup and transported to permit repetitive use, is relatively easy to manufacture, and cost-effective. The adjustable frame, designed to be placed on the ground, consists of a first pair of linear telescoping members coupled at each end by a second pair of linear telescoping members, thereby allowing the user to expand the adjustable frame to increase or decrease the total square area of the frame according to the preferences and stance of the golfer. Furthermore, each top side of the first pair of linear members include vertically extendable sway bars to alert the golfer if he/she is “swaying” rather than turning on the back swing or follow-through.

Present invention discloses a golf swing practicing apparatus for practicing golf swing in a confined environment with a short-shaft golf club, practicing methods for setting up the short-shaft golf club at a proper incline angle in mid air at address position, and a mechanic model for determining the required club head weight that enables golfer to feel the same Swing Weight as he swings the short-shaft golf club or the conventional golf club.

A golf swing training device comprising has a support base for contacting a support surface, such as the ground. There is a vertical support element extending upward from the support base having a lateral support arm transverse on the vertical support element with a relatively left side and a relatively right side. The lateral support arm has two directional arms extending in a forward direction away from the lateral support arms. The lateral support arm has a rotation-enabling connection to the vertical support element so that the relatively left side can be elevated above the relatively right side, and alternatively the relatively right side may be elevated above the relatively left side to alter the individual respective heights of the two arms.

An intelligent golf swing includes a swing body, a top spotlight device and a lower spotlight device. The swing body includes a middle rod and a lower rod. The lower rod is installed at the bottom end of the middle rod. The lower rod and the middle rod are arranged in a straight line. The top spotlight device is fixedly installed at the top end of the middle rod. The top spotlight device includes a spotlight and a switch. The lower spotlight device is fixedly installed on the lower rod. The lower spotlight device includes a lampwick and a button switch. A light emitted by the lampwick is allowed to be emitted from the bottom end of the lower rod, and the aforementioned light, the swing body, the lower rod and the middle rod are located on the same straight line.

A training aid is disclosed comprising a base; a first member rotatable with respect to the base about a first axis, wherein the base and the first member comprise respective indicia indicating a rotational position of the first member about the first axis; and a second member comprising: a proximal end coupled with the first member and rotatable about a second axis, wherein the first member and the second member comprise additional respective indicia to indicate a rotational position of the second member about the second axis; and a distal end configured to couple with a guide.
