A wearable counting and score keeping apparatus is attachable to or integrated with an item of apparel. Scores for games played are tabulable upon the apparatus whereby a user need not write down scores but may signal a score in real time while actively involved in the game.

A golf club head includes a body having an outer surface and a recessed channel defined in the outer surface of the body. A chamber is defined at one end of the recessed channel. The golf club head also includes a weight assembly having a weight at least partially disposed within the recessed channel and configured to slide therein. A cover having a first end and an opposite second end, the second end including a projection, and a fastener coupling the first end of the cover to the body. The fastener secures the first end of the cover to the body while the projection of the second end of the cover engages with the chamber of the recessed channel to retain a position of the weight within the recessed channel between the first end and the second end of the cover.

A practice alignment tool to align a golf ball and putter during practice. The alignment tool is useful for creating a repeatable/consistent aligned squared swing with all golf clubs. A preferred embodiment of the alignment tool has a substantially “L” shaped profile as well as strategically placed tee holes, notches, and markings that allow a golfer to align a golf shot to better hit a target during practice.

In general, an exercise device includes a handle having a first end and a second end. A curved member is coupled to the first end of the handle. A movable member is coupled to the curved member, with the movable member configured to travel along a length of the curved member, where the movable member has a first portion and a second portion, and the second portion is configured to move relative to the first portion. An elongate member has a first end and a second end, and the first end of the elongate member is coupled to the second portion of the movable member. A weight is coupled to the second end of the elongate member.

A golf ball remover allows easy removal of a golf ball from a golf hole while the flagstick is left in place, thereby sparing physical strain on the golfer and potential damage to the hole. The golf ball remover may user the flagstick itself as a movement guide, with a ball grabbing component that is not kept within the hole, but instead is stored above the hole on the flagstick and is pushed down into the hole when used. The golf ball remover may be attached to a retractable cord and/or other movement component to automatically lift it out of the hole.

A device includes a signaling means and a motion sensor, and logic for activating or controlling the signaling means in response to a sensed motion according to an embedded logic. The device may be used as a toy, and may be shaped like a play ball or as a handheld unit. It may be powered from a battery, either chargeable from an AC power source directly or contactless by using induction or by converting electrical energy from harvested kinetic energy. The embedded logic may activate or control the signaling means, predictably or randomly, in response to sensed acceleration magnitude or direction, such as sensing the crossing of a preset threshold or sensing the peak value. The visual means may be a numeric display for displaying a value associated with the count of the number of times the threshold has been exceeded or the peak magnitude of the acceleration sensed.

This tool for recording the number of swings in a ball game includes a plurality of holed beads 20 and a cord 30 that is passed through the holes 20H of the beads 20 and that holds the beads 20 so that the beads 20 can slide, the cord 30 is formed from a cord material that does not stretch in an axial direction but that stretches in a diametrical direction and that is normally urged in a diameter-expanding direction, and the cord 30 constrict in diameter so as to elastically interlock with the walls of the holes 20H of the beads 20 and hold the beads 20 in position, whereby the beads do not shift even if a player strongly shakes the tool, the number of swings in the ball game can be reliably recorded and confirmed, and the tool is easily assembled.

A golf club fitting apparatus and a method for fitting using the apparatus are provided. The golf club fitting apparatus may be attached to a golf club and provide fitting information including effective lie angle, effective loft angle, stroke plane, and aiming verification information. That golf club fitting apparatus includes a first opening for receiving a shaft, second openings for receiving a collimated light source, third openings for receiving angle indicators, and a recess for securing the collimated light source in an alternate configuration.

This invention is an inexpensive, easy-to-use, and easy-to-manufacture device that can be placed on the edge of a pool so that a swimmer can use it to count laps without significantly disrupting the swimming. The invention is lightweight and portable so that one person can carry it around, place it on the pool before swimming laps, and remove it afterwards.
