A method and device for golf swing training is disclosed wherein a double pendulum model swing is replicated by defining a point on a golfer's chest about which a golfer's swing rotates and extending therefrom a inelastic flexible strap for attachment to the grip of a golf club. The inelastic flexible strap encourages the golfer to fully extend his arms throughout the golf swing to maintain a proper swing radius without inhibiting the movement of the golfer's wrists; therefore, allowing the golfer to experience the ideal golf swing.
This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 60/249,740, filed Nov. 17, 2000, and is a continuation-in-part of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 09/988,360 now abandoned filed Nov. 19, 2001.
The invention relates to a training device to be used by a golfer to help the golfer develop proper arm motion and placement during putting and chipping comprising a rigid lateral spacing member having a distal side and a proximal side, the member including a pair of upper arm cradling means in the distal side for holding the upper arms in spaced relationship to the chest and to each other and a chest cradling means on the proximal side for placing the device against the mid chest and holding the arms in spaced relationship to the mid chest during use.
