6227983 - Golf club head and laser pointer arrangement

A golf club head and laser pointer arrangement, which includes a golf club head, the golf club head having a recessed chamber and an elongated slot on a face thereof in communication with the recessed chamber, and a laser pointer mounted in the recessed chamber, the laser pointer having a laser firing hole, a lens mounted in the laser firing hole, and a laser diode and driver circuit controlled to emit a laser beam through the lens and the elongated slot on the face of the golf club head for pointing the ball toward the target hole in a golf course.

7066826 - Laser head adjustment device for laser putter

A head for a practice putter includes a front face with a ball-strike area, a pair of laser beam emitters located within the head and each emitting a laser beam at a respective side of the ball-strike area. The laser beams converge with one another to a point several yards directly forward of the ball-strike area.

6371864 - Alignment device for golf putting practices

An apparatus and method for teaching golfers proper putting fundementals. The apparatus comprises a device which removably mounts over a putter head, projecting a laser beam on the plane perpendicular to the striking face of a putter just over the sweet spot. The apparatus also includes a means for the golfer to properly align the eyes vertically above the striking face. The laser beam is directed towards and on a linearly calibrated target strip. By directing a shot at various positions on the target strip while viewing the putter from a proper vertically aligned position, a golfer is able to learn to judge putting situations.

6458038 - Golf putting indication device

A golf putting indication device includes a light emitting golf putter, a light sensing unit, and a display unit. The light emitting golf putter includes a light beam which projects from a strike face of the light emitting golf putter. The light sensing unit includes a plurality of photocells. Each photocell is housed in a tubular compartment. The display unit contains a plurality of light emitting devices. The number of light emitting devices corresponds to the number of photocells. Each photocell is electrically connected to a battery and to a single light emitting device. When a photocell is struck with the beam of light, the photocell's respective light emitting device emits light. In use, a golfer practices swinging the light emitting golf putter such that the light beam only enters one of the tubular compartments.

7112151 - Golf club alignment apparatus

A golf club alignment apparatus includes a golf club head portion which includes an optimal ball hitting portion also known as a "sweet spot". One or two laser units are connected to the golf club head portion, and the laser units project planar laser beams (e. g. fan beams), wherein portions of the planar laser beams impinge on the ground. The planar laser beams are oriented perpendicularly to a front face of the golf club head portion. The support platform projects outward from behind the golf club head portion. Each laser unit includes a laser beam generating portion for emitting a planar laser beam from the laser beam generating portion. Alignment of a target with a golf ball is aided by employing the planar laser beams.
