Abstract
An external reference system, which allows a golfer to aim and control his body and swing alignment. The preferred embodiment of the present invention includes a self contained, independent device that may be removably affixed to the golfer at various points of his body, the particular location corresponding to the area the golfer wishes to focus on with respect to proper alignment, such as the golfer's feet, legs or back. The external referencing system, generated by an emitted laser beam, allows the golfer to achieve proper body alignment with reference to a target.
Claims22
A golf laser aid device comprising:
- a housing having a laser;
- and
- a means for affixing the housing to a location on a golfer's body,
- wherein the laser emits a laser beam for providing the golfer with a swing alignment reference separate from the golfer's body.
A golfer's aid, comprising:
- a means for providing an active comparison with an external reference, the external reference being separated from a golfer's body;
- and
- an affixing means for affixing the means for providing to the golfer's body;
- wherein the active comparison provides the golfer with information regarding how his swing is aligned before, during or after a golf swing.
A method for achieving proper body alignment when swinging a golf club by using a laser alignment device, said method comprising the steps of:
- A Fastening said laser alignment device to a location on a golfer's body, said device facing a selected target;
- B Placing a mat with a grid on the floor surrounding said golfer;
- C Stepping on said mat so that said golfer can take his usual golf stance;
- D Activating said laser alignment device so that said device emits a laser beam;
- E Moving said device until said laser beam is pointing to said target, said movement of said device being achieved by moving said golfer's body, and placing said device into a locked position once said laser beam is pointing at said target;
- F Examining said golfer's stance in relation to said laser beam as reflected in said grid and adjusting said golfer's stance to correspond to said laser beam;
- G Swinging said golf club once said golfer's stance is aligned with said laser beam.
A method for achieving proper body alignment when swinging a golf club by using at least one laser alignment device, said method comprising the steps of:
- A Fastening a first laser alignment device to a first location on a golfer's body, said first device facing a first target;
- B Fastening a second laser alignment device to a second location of a golfer's body, said second device facing a second target;
- C Placing a mat with a grid on the floor surrounding said golfer;
- D Stepping on said mat so that said golfer can take his usual golf stance;
- E Activating said first and second laser alignment devices so that said devices emit a first and second laser beam;
- F Moving said first and second devices until said first and second laser beams are pointing to their respective first and second targets, said movement of said first and second devices being achieved by moving said golfer's body and once said first and second laser beams are pointing at their respective first and second targets, placing said first and second devices into locked positions;
- G Examining said golfer's stance in relation to said first and second laser beams as reflected in said grid and adjusting said golfer's stance to correspond to said first and second laser beams;
- H Driving said golf ball once said golfer's stance is aligned with said first and second laser beams.
A method for achieving proper body alignment when swinging a golf club, the method comprising the steps of:
- A choosing an external reference for desired interaction with a golfer's stance or swing, the external reference being separated from a golfer's body;
- B attaching a means for providing to the golfer's body, the means for providing an active comparison with the external reference;
- D swinging the golf club;
- and
- C providing information to the golfer indicative of the active comparison with the external reference before, during and after the swing.
