Abstract
This invention consists of a flexible cord attached to and wound around a strong spring-loaded, spring-retarded, spring resisted or spring-counterbalanced pulley mounted upon a wall or other stationary vertical support surface, with a handle of wood or other material attached to the other end of the flexible cord so that when the handle is pulled in a downward movement away from the strong spring-loaded pulley, in a simulated golf stroke downswing, the cord rotates the pulley against the strong force or tension of the counter-balancing spring that is connected to the pulley. By making many continuous and repeated downswings with this apparatus all of the muscles used in driving a golf ball are strained and strengthened, enabling the golfer to hit the golf ball farther when playing on a golf course.
Claims5
A golf swing muscle developer comprising a handle, a flexible cord, a pulley, a stationary axle, a mounting bracket and an elongated coiled spring means;
- said handle connected to one end of said flexible cord, the other end of said flexible cord wound around and attached to said pulley, said pulley mounted and rotatable upon said stationary axle, said stationary axle attached to said mounting bracket, means for attaching said mounting bracket to a supporting surface, means for anchoring one end of said coiled spring means to a stationary support, means for connecting the other end of said coiled spring means to said pulley whereby the pulling of said handle away from said pulley, by the operator in performing a simulated golf stroke downswing, causes said flexible cord to unwind on the groove of said pulley and to rotate said pulley on said stationary axle against the strong tension of said coiled spring means as said coiled spring means is stretched by this action;
- said spring means causing automatic rewinding of said flexible cord in groove of said pulley when the operator returns said handle toward said pulley when making a simulated golf stroke backswing.
A golf swing muscle developer comprising a pulley, a handle, a flexible cord, an axle, a mounting bracket and an elongated coiled spring means;
- said pulley attached to said axle, said axle attached to said mounting bracket, means for attaching said mounting bracket to a supporting surface, said flexible cord wound in groove of said pulley, one end of said flexible cord attached to the movable end of said spring means, means for attaching the other end of said spring means to a stationary support, the other end of said flexible cord attached to said handle whereby the pulling of said handle and said flexible cord away from said pulley, by the operator in performing a simulated golf stroke downswing, rotates said pulley against the tension of said spring means as said spring means is stretched by this action, means provided in said elongated spring means to automatically rewind said flexible cord in groove of said pulley when the operator returns said handle toward said pulley in a simulated golf stroke backswing.
