GOLF PUTTING TRAINING APPARATUS

Abstract

A golf putting training apparatus includes a putting board having a predetermined length and having one end thereof selectively adjustable in height; a guide groove (or guide hole) formed in an upper surface of the putting board with a predetermined length; and a putting exerciser including a guide blade fitted to the guide groove (or guide hole) and integrally or detachably coupled to a center of a lower side of a head thereof, and a shaft mounted on an upper side of the head.

Claims

1. A golf putting training apparatus comprising: a putting board having a predetermined length and having one end thereof selectively adjustable in height; a guide groove (or guide hole) formed in an upper surface of the putting board with a predetermined length; and a putting exerciser comprising a guide blade fitted to the guide groove (or guide hole) and integrally or detachably coupled to a center of a lower side of a head thereof, and a shaft mounted on an upper side of the head.

2. A golf putting training apparatus comprising: a putting board having a predetermined length and having one end thereof selectively adjustable in height; a guide groove (or guide hole) formed in an upper surface of the putting board with a predetermined length; and a putting exerciser comprising a guide roller fitted to the guide groove (or guide hole) and integrally or detachably coupled to a center of a lower side of a head thereof, and a shaft mounted on an upper side of the head.

3. The apparatus of claim 1, further comprising an upper guide groove formed in an upper end portion of the guide groove, allowing a golf ball to roll without deviating from the location thereof, and having a U or V shape.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0021] The golf putting training apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention may be provided with a putting board 10 having a predetermined length.

[0022] The putting board 10 may be provided in plurality, and may be selectively connected to each other. One end of the putting board 10 may be elevated slightly higher than the other end of the putting board 10 by mounting a height-adjustable leg on one end of the putting board 10. Thus, after putting, a golf ball may be rolled down along the inclined surface.

[0023] To this end, a guide groove 11 (or a guide hole) having a predetermined length may be formed in the upper surface of the putting board 10.

[0024] A guide blade 22 may be mounted onto the putting exerciser 20 which is fitted in the guide groove 11 (or the guide hole) and forms a set. The guide blade 22 is integrally or detachably mounted at the center of the lower surface of the head 21.

[0025] The guide blade 22 may be integrally coupled to the head 21, but the guide blade 22 may be slightly displaced to one or the other end of the face of the head 21. In order to allow a user to perform a swing practice while changing the position of the guide blade 22, the guide blade 22 may be detachably coupled to the head 21.

[0026] A guide roller 23 is integrally or detachably mounted onto the center of the lower surface of the head 21 in the putting exerciser 20 which is sandwiched between the guide grooves 11 (or the guide holes).

[0027] The guide roller 23 may be integrally coupled to the head 21. However, the guide roller 23 may be slightly displaced to one end or the other end of the face of the head 21. In order to allow a user to perform a swing practice while changing the position of the guide roller 23, the guide roller 23 may be detachably coupled to the head 21.

[0028] An upper guide groove 12 may be formed at an upper end portion of the guide groove 11. The upper guide groove 12 may have a width L larger than the width 1 of the guide groove 11, and have a section of U or V shape such that a golf ball can be squeezed without departing from its position.

[0029] More preferably, a golf ball recovery groove 13 may be formed at the end of the guide groove 11 such that a golf ball which is out of the guide groove 11 can move back along the guide groove 11 as described later.

[0030] Hereinafter, the operation of the present invention configured as described above will be described.

[0031] As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, when a golfer performs putting practice while gripping the putting exerciser 20, the guide blade 22 or guide roller 23 provided on the lower surface of the head 21 may be inserted into the inside of the guide groove 11.

[0032] That is, when a golfer swings while maintaining a predetermined trajectory for putting practice, the guide blade 22 or the guide roller 23 provided on the lower surface of the head 21 may be guided along both inner side surfaces, linearly reciprocating in a stable manner.

[0033] Accordingly, since the swinging motion of the putter is repeatedly performed in a state where the guide groove 11 does not depart from the guide groove 11, the body muscle can be naturally formed in accordance with the putting.

[0034] Also, the golf ball B impacted by the head 21 may be moved along the guide groove 12 when the golf ball B is placed on the guide groove 11 and putting practice is performed. Thereafter, the golf ball B may return to the golf ball recovery groove 13, and then may return to the original position of the guide groove 11 along an inclined surface of the recovery groove 13.

[0035] The guide rails 22 or the guide rollers 23 provided under the putting exerciser 20 may maintain a straight-line orbit without deviating from the guide groove 11 while being supported by the inner sides of the guide grooves 11. Thus, during the process of repeatedly performing the putting practice, a body suitable for putting can be formed.
