A golf swing training device including a hinge interposed between two elongated members. The hinge permits the elongated members to selectively break from longitudinal alignment along a first axis with the first elongated member when a prescribed differential force between the first elongated member and the second elongated member is applied to break the longitudinal alignment. The golf swing training device includes a club head including a club head face and a hosel, wherein the hosel is configured to receive an end of the second elongated member. The hosel includes a face angle adjustment mechanism having a plurality of settings to adjust a club face angle of the club head relative to one or more axes of the hinge assembly. A fastener is configured to releasably secure the club head through the hosel to one of the elongate members.

A ball throwing device for dog owners includes a handle connected to a head with an elongate shaft, the head defining an opening into which a ball can be inserted. The handle further includes a hollow interior to receive a roll of pet waste bags, an aperture being provided in the side wall of the handle, through which the bags can be dispensed.

Various embodiments include a stick handling training device for a user to hold in one hand while holding an elongate shaft of sporting equipment in another hand. The stick handling training device includes an elongate tubular body configured to cover a portion of the sporting equipment shaft. The elongate tubular body includes an outer grip surface for the user to hold in the one hand. A cylindrical passage is included through the elongate tubular body from a first aperture at a first end to a second aperture at a second end. A diameter of the cylindrical passage is larger than a widest lateral dimension of the elongate shaft such that when the elongate shaft is disposed in the cylindrical passage and the outer grip surface is held by the user, the user may freely rotate and slide the elongate tubular body relative to a longitudinal axis of the elongate shaft.

The toy that demonstrating arms strength, shaped like a long bar, comprises a handle connected to digital display and connected to an airduct and the last part an airbag. Operate of the toy that demonstrating arms strength: The player using the hand to hold the handle of toy and then hits the airbag of end other side to floor and then the scores will be displayed on the digital screen. If player hits the airbag on floor stronger, then the scores will be higher. To play: Two players play together: First, the firstly player hits the airbag on the floor and records the scores show on the toy's screen, and then the secondly player hits the airbag on the floor and records the scores show on the toy's screen. Then compare the two scores of the two players. If someone's scores is higher, mean that person wins.

A metal foil satisfies following conditional equations (1), (2) and (3) to smoothly increase rigidity in the longitudinal direction of the shaft main body from a distal end side to a base end side while increasing a weight of a wound part of the metal foil

0.50<Lmf/Ls (1)

Lmr/Ls<0.90 (2)

0.03<Wm/Ws<0.09 (3) where Lmf: a length from a distal end position in the longitudinal direction of the shaft main body to a winding start position of the metal foil, Lmr: a length from the distal end position in the longitudinal direction of the shaft main body to a winding end position of the metal foil, Ls: a length of the shaft main body, Wm: a weight of the metal foil, and Ws: a weight of the shaft main body.
