Abstract
A unique golf training apparatus is disclosed in which an arm guide is secured to the off arm of a golfer. A wrist guide is pivotally attached to the arm guide and positioned on the hand of a golfers with no provision for securing same thereto. The pivotal attachment of the wrist guide to the arm guide ensures that the golfer's hand pivots properly relative to the forearm. The arm guide is generally C-shaped and extends over more than 180 degrees about a central axis, such that it firmly secures the golfer's arm to the arm guide. The golf training apparatus ensures the golfer will have his arm and hand properly positioned during the swing, eliminating "open" or "closed" swings. This results in the golfer hitting the ball more properly.
