A golf driving and putting exerciser and training aid is provided comprising an assembly of telescoping cylinders pivotally secured at one end to a supporting surface and provided with a driving fixture at the other end. The rate of retraction and extension of all cylinders is controlled by means of air pistons on the end of the cylinders. The training aid can be used to an angled vertical position to practice driving swings and in a horizontal position to practice putting strokes. Various attachments are provided to achieve flexibility in mounting and applications.

The present invention 10 discloses a golf club 12 having a canister-like housing 46 attached thereto. The housing 46 contains a group of mercury switches 58, 59 mounted internally on a pair of rotatable platforms 46 between two discs 60 which discs are connected to a rotational dial member 48 having a scale of degrees 52 displayed thereon. The rotational dial member 48 functions with a number of fixedly connected elements in concert with the mercury switches 58, 59 to selectively actuate a plurality of LED's 16 which LED's indicate the physical relationship of the golf club 12 with a fixed object, e.g., the ground, so that the golfer 18 can practice his/her golf swing.

A golf swing muscle strengthener and swing developer device having a suitable structural member attached to a golf handle. The member may be curved or made up of L shaped members that are clamped to the handle. If L shaped members are used, they are slidably connected to each other. Weights suspend from the member so that they are directly below the golfer's grip. If a curved member is used, a means for adjusting weights is provided so as to locate the weights properly. The weights are suspended from the member by a single member or a member made up of the two parts: two members that permit one to telescopically slide into the other. There is no restraint of the weights at their upper end so that when they move a noise and vibration are observable; however, as the user becomes acquainted with the feel of a correct swing, an upper restraint may be added. If the noise or vibration are not easily observable, a light or sound generating device or a combination of both may be provided.

A limb movement exercising and training apparatus having a cable connected, at one end, to a weight plate and connected, at the other end, to a rotatable cam rail. A pivotal swing arm is connected to the cam rail to rotate the cam rail upon pivotal motion of the swing arm. Rotation of the cam rail pulls the cable and lifts the weight plate. A handle, or other suitable structure, is connected to the swing arm so as to pivot the swing arm and rotate the cam rail as a user moves a limb in an exercise or training motion. The outer peripheral shape of the cam rail and/or the location of the axis of rotation of the cam rail may be designed to require varying amounts of work or power to rotate the cam rail as the cam rail is rotated by varying degrees of rotation. Adjustment structure allows the height and angle of the cam rail and swing arm to be adjusted.

A golf swing muscle strengthener and swing developer device having a suitable structural member attached to a golf handle. The member may be curved or made up of L shaped members that are clamped to the handle. If L shaped members are used, they are slidably connected to each other. Weights suspend from the member so that they are directly below the golfer's grip. If a curved member is used, a means for adjusting weights is provided so as to locate the weights properly. At least one weight is suspended from the member by a single member or a member made up of the two parts: two members that permit one to telescopically side into the other. There is no restraint of the weights at their upper end so that when they move a sound is heard and vibration is observable; however, as the user becomes acquainted with the feel of a correct swing, an upper restraint may be added. If the noise or vibration are not easily observable, a light or sound generating device or a combination of both may be provided.
