Abstract
An upper and a lower flexible plastic telltale arm, each capable of limited rotation on a vertical supporting hinge-pin which is common to both telltales which are spaced vertically apart with ample space between the said telltales to allow a golf clubhead to freely pass between the said telltales without contacting either telltale, a yielding target in the well known form of a simulated golf ball normally supported at the end of a flexible plastic arm which arm is the carrier of the target which normally is interposed between the upper and the lower telltales each of which is capable of moving to a new position and remaining in the new position whenever either of the telltales is struck by the golfclub due to an improper "swing."
Claims4
A golf training device comprising a U-shaped support, a pair of elongated arms of substantially the same length pivotally mounted on one of the legs of said support, said arms being spaced from each other along said leg;
- a target carrier non-rotatably mounted on said support and between said elongated arms and having a target on the end thereof remote from said support, said target being positioned between said arms so that a golf club improperly swung will contact one of said arms and when properly swung will contact only said target, means for preventing the return of an arm to its original position after it has been struck and caused to pivot on said one leg.
