Golf putting training device

A golf putting training device, comprising:

• a bridge defining an aperture through which a golf ball may be putted, and wherein the bridge has opposite first and second ends, and opposite first and second sides;
• an elongated first rail member having a first, and an opposite second end, and wherein the first end of the first rail member releasably mates with the first end of the bridge, and extends substantially normally outwardly relative to the first side;
• and
• a second elongated rail member having a first and an opposite second end, and wherein the first end of the second rail member releasably mates with the second end of the bridge, and further extends substantially normally outwardly relative to the first side, and wherein a channel is defined therebetween the first and second rail members and is operable to receive the head of a golf club therebetween, and wherein the respective rail members are disposed in closely adjacent, spaced relation relative to the golf club head when the golf club head is disposed in a substantially perpendicular orientation relative to the respective rail members.

A golf putting training device for use on the surface of the earth, comprising:

• a bridge having a main body defining, at least in part, an aperture which allows the passage of a golf ball therethrough, and wherein the bridge has opposite first and second ends, and wherein a substantially vertically disposed aperture is formed in each of the first and second ends of the bridge;
• a first rail member having opposite first and second ends, and wherein a channel is formed in the first end, and which matingly cooperates with the first end of the bridge, and wherein an aperture is formed in the first end of the first rail member and is disposed in substantially coaxially alignment relative to the aperture which is formed in the first end of the bridge;
• a first golf tee received through each of the coaxially aligned apertures which are defined by the first end of the bridge, and the first end of the first rail member, and wherein the first golf tee is received in the earth;
• a second rail member having opposite first and second ends, and wherein a channel is formed in the first end of the second rail member, and which matingly cooperates with the second end of the bridge, and wherein an aperture is formed in the first end of the second rail member and which is substantially coaxially aligned relative to the aperture formed in the second end of the bridge;
• and
• a second golf tee received in each of the coaxially aligned apertures which are defined by the second end of the bridge, and the first end of the second rail member, and wherein the second golf tee is received in the earth, and wherein the first and second rail members extend substantially normally outwardly relative to the bridge, and further defines a channel therebetween, and which is operable to receive the head of a golf club, and wherein the respective first and second rail members are oriented in closely spaced relation relative to the head of the golf club head when the golf club head is located in a substantially perpendicular orientation relative to the respective first and second rail members.
