Golf training device

A golf training device comprising:

• a ball support comprising a ground pad of a sufficient area, made of a resilient material and having a hole formed therein and a ball holder made of a resilient and elastically deformable material, comprising a flat base having a surface area larger than the hole of the ground pad and a tee mounted on the flat base and extending therefrom through the hole of the ground pad to have the ground pad resting on the flat base to retain the ball holder in position, the tee comprising a top end having a concave top surface;
• a ball adapted to be placed on the concave surface of the tee to be hit, comprising a spherical core made of a light-weighted material and having a size and configuration similar to a golf ball with a plurality of dimples formed on a surface thereof and a cover layer made of a stretchable and elastically deformable material to completely enclose the core, the dimples formed on the surface of the core providing a relative slippery interface between the cover layer and the core when the ball is hit;
• and
• ball grasping means comprising a releasable fastening device which comprises two mated portions of which a first portion is adapted to be fixed on a head of a golf club and a second portion is fixed on the cover layer of the ball so that when the club is swung to hit the ball, the first and second portions of the releasable fastening device engage and stick to each other and thus hold the ball on the head of the golf club.
