A golf wrist trainer for training a golfer in the execution of a swing of a golf club, said golf club having a shaft with a longitudinal axis, a leading edge and a grip, said golf wrist trainer comprising:
- an attachment means for attaching said golf wrist trainer to said grip adjacent the top end of said grip;
- and
- a guide member, said guide member comprising
- a first part, said first part having a first segment that is attached to and extends away from said attachment means in a first direction and generally lies in a first plane that is perpendicular to a second plane passing through said leading edge and a second segment that generally lies in a third plane that is parallel to said second plane passing through said leading edge,
- a second part having two ends, one of which is attached to said second segment, said second part lying in a fourth plane that is generally perpendicular to said longitudinal axis, and
- a third part, said third part having a first portion that is attached to and extends away from said attaching means in a second direction that is substantially opposite said first direction and generally lies is a fifth plane that is perpendicular to the second plane passing through said leading edge and a second portion that generally lies in a sixth plane that is parallel to said second plane passing through said leading edge, said second portion being connected to the other end of said second part and generally lying in a seventh plane that contains said second segment.
A golf wrist trainer for training a golfer in the execution of a swing of a golf club, said golf club having a shaft with a longitudinal axis, a leading edge and a grip, said golf wrist trainer comprising:
- an attaching means for attaching said golf wrist trainer to said grip, adjacent the top end of said grip;
- and
- a guide member, said guide member comprising
- a first part, said first part having a first segment that is attached to and extends away from said attaching means in a first direction and a second segment that generally lies in a first plane that is parallel to a second plane that passes through said leading edge,
- a second part having two ends, one of which ends is attached to said second segment, said second part lying in a second plane that is generally perpendicular to said longitudinal axis, and
- a third part, said third part having a first portion that is attached to and extends away from said attaching means in a second direction and a second portion that generally lies in a third plane that is parallel to said second plane that passes through said leading edge, said second portion being connected to the other end of said second part.
A golf wrist trainer for training a golfer in the execution of a swing of a golf club, said golf club having a shaft with a longitudinal axis and a grip on said shaft, said golf wrist trainer comprising:
- an attaching means for securing said golf wrist trainer to said grip;
- and
- a guide member, said guide member comprising
- a first part, said first part having a first segment and a second segment, said first segment being attached to and extending away from said attaching means,
- a second part that is attached to said second segment, said second part lying in a plane that is perpendicular to said longitudinal axis, and
- a third part, said third part having a first portion and a second portion, said first portion being attached to and extending away from said attaching means and said second portion being attached to said second part.
A trainer for training a golfer having a leading arm with a radius covered by skin and a trailing arm in the use of a golf club having a shaft with a longitudinal axis and a grip, said trainer comprising:
- means for attaching said trainer to the grip of the golf club;
- and
- a guide arm connected to said means for attaching, said guide arm comprising
- means for providing said golfer with feedback on the correct positions of said leading arm and said trailing arm relative to said golf club during said use,
- means for contacting the skin over said radius during said use, and
- means for limiting the angle between the radius and said shaft during said use.
A method for training a golfer to execute a proper swing of a golf club having a shaft with a longitudinal axis and a grip on said shaft using a golf wrist trainer comprising an attachment means for attaching said golf wrist trainer to said grip and a guide member, said guide member comprising a first part, said first part having a first segment and a second segment, said first segment being attached to and extending away from said an attachment means, a second part that is attached to said second segment, said second part lying in a plane that is perpendicular to said longitudinal axis, and a third part, said third part having a first portion and a second portion, said first portion being attached to and extending away from said attachment means and said second portion being attached to said second part, said method comprising:
- addressing a ball, at which time said second part is oriented parallel to a line to a target;
- executing a first part of a backswing to a first checkpoint at point time said shaft is parallel to the ground and parallel to a line to said target line, said handle is generally over the toes of the right foot of the golfer, and said second part is oriented perpendicular to said target line;
- continuing the backswing to a second checkpoint at which point the said shaft is pointing at the target line;
- executing a forward swing to a third checkpoint at which point said second part is oriented parallel to said target line;
- and
- continuing the forward swing to a fourth checkpoint at which point said shaft and said second part are oriented parallel to said target line and said grip is generally over the toes of the left foot of the golfer.
