Abstract
A golf training device comprises a first elastic band loop attached to a strap wrapped around the lead shoulder of the golfer at one end and to the shaft of the golf club at the other end and also comprises a second elastic band loop attached to a strap wrapped around the lead shoulder of the golfer at one end and to the butt end of the grip of the golf club at the other end. When the golfer extends his or her arms to swing the golf club, the resistance provided by the rubber bands helps guide the golfer's swing by informing the proper location of the arms and hands of the golfer relative to the body for maximum leverage throughout the golf swing.
