Abstract

A golf swing training apparatus. The apparatus includes a mounting bar with an extendable length arm stabilizer extending outwardly from the mounting bar and terminating in a headrest. A swing cam is rotatable around the arm stabilizer about an axis coaxial with the arm stabilizer. A guideline extends from the swing cam and terminates in a golf club connector so that the swing cam rotates with movement of the golf club. Additionally, a pair of adjustable length guide rods extends from the mounting bar.

Claims (23)

1. A golf swing training apparatus which comprises:

a mounting bar;

an extendable length arm stabilizer terminating in a headrest;

a swing cam rotatable around said arm stabilizer about an axis through said arm stabilizer;

an adjustable length guideline extending from said swing cam which terminates in a golf club connector; and

a pair of guide rods extending from said mounting bar wherein said pair of guide rods each includes a gear having teeth which rotates with respect to each other.

2. A golf swing training apparatus as set forth in claim 1 wherein said mounting bar is tubular and is attachable to a wall so that said mounting bar is parallel to and spaced from said wall.

3. A golf swing training apparatus as set forth in claim 1 wherein said extendable length arm stabilizer includes a telescoping tube which may be locked in place at a chosen position.

4. A golf swing training apparatus as set forth in claim 1 wherein said extendable length arm stabilizer is rotatable about an axis through said mounting bar.

5. A golf swing training apparatus as set forth in claim 1 wherein said swing cam includes a radially extending guideline attachment post and wherein said guideline extends from said swing cam attachment post.

6. A golf swing training apparatus as set forth in claim 1 wherein said golf club connector includes a ring to be placed over a golf club.

7. A golf swing training apparatus as set forth in claim 1 wherein said guide rods are rotatably connected to a guide rod swing plate which extends from said mounting bar.

8. A golf swing training apparatus is set forth in claim 1 wherein said pair of guide rods are each adjustable in length.

9. A golf swing training apparatus as set forth in claim 1 including a swing tempo and angle check bar that may be held across a user's chest.

10. A golf swing training apparatus as set forth in claim 1 wherein said swing cam is positional with respect to said arm stabilizer so that an angle formed by a plane through such swing cam and said axis of said swing cam may be positioned in a desirable location.

11. A golf swing training apparatus which comprises:

a mounting bar parallel to and spaced from a wall;

means for a head rest for a user extending from said mounting bar;

swing cam means for permitting rotation of a swing cam about an arm stabilizer about an axis through said arm stabilizer;

an adjustable length guideline attached at a first end to said swing cam and attached at an opposite end to a golf club; and

means to provide a barrier to prevent said golf club from straying from a proper swing path, said means to provide a barrier to prevent said golf club from straying from a proper swing path includes a guide rod assembly having a guide rod mounting plate rotatably connected to said mounting bar, a pair of guide rod posts, and a guide rod extending from each guide rod post.

12. A golf swing training apparatus as set forth in claim 11 including a swing tempo and angle check bar that may be held across said user's chest.

13. A golf swing training apparatus as set forth in claim 11 wherein said means for a headrest extends from a telescoping extendable length arm stabilizer.
