As attorney for the inventor of the innovative new Golf Putting Training Device we are currently seeking investors and manufacturing companies to license, purchase patent rights or enter into a royalty agreement for this timely invention. Interested parties can reach the attorney at the contact numbers listed at the bottom of this page.

The present invention relates generally to golf devices and, more specifically, to a golf putting-training device attachable to a golf club. The device contains a rod deformable to a triangular shape which mimics the shape of the user extending from the hands through the arms and across the shoulders. The guide serves to identify unwanted user joint flexure or rotation during a putt thereby enabling corrective action by the user in performing a pendulum like putt swing.

Invention Objects & Goals

  • to provide a golf putting training device comprising a deformable rod and club fastener that incorporates a rod receptacle for receiving an end of said deformable rod

  • to provide a golf putting training device wherein said deformable rod is bent into a triangular shape as needed during a putting training session

  • to provide a golf putting training device wherein said golf club-fastener comprises club mounting means and rod receptacle with receptacle extension arm therebetween to keep the triangular rod spaced away from the user during a putt training sessions

  • to provide a golf putting training device wherein said golf club mounting means may incorporate releasable tensioning of the mounting means for selectively relocating said golf club mounting means to a desired club location

Patent Drawings

The following pictures are meant to display possible physical characteristics of the present invention and are not to be taken in a limiting sense. It is understood that other embodiments may be utilized and that structural changes may be made without departing from the scope of the invention.

FIGURE 1

Figure 1 is an illustrative view of the present invention in use. The present invention is a golf putting training device 10 comprising a light weight, weather resistant, deformable rod 12 and a fastener element serving as golf club mounting means 14 attachable to the shaft 26 of a putter 24. The deformable rod 12 is hand bent into a triangular shape by the user 16 conforming to the triangular shape formed by the shoulders 18, arms 20 and hands 22 when assuming a putting stance. The device helps a player monitor their hands, arms and shoulders relative to the triangle guide helping the player develop the feel of a one-piece pendulum swing motion.

Figure 3 are cross sectional views of rod shapes provided by the present invention. The present invention provides a deformable rod 12 that is hand bendable by the user to mimic the user's triangular formed by the shoulders, arms and hands when assuming a putting stance. The rod 12 shape is selected from the group of polygon, circle, oval and irregular shape.

Figure 7 are cross sectional views of rod receptacles having aperture shapes corresponding to the aforementioned rod shapes. The present invention envisions that the rod receptacle 42 housing may have any shape while preferably the receptacle aperture 44 has a shape corresponding to the rod 12 cross sectional shape or that of the of the present invention. The present invention provides a deformable rod 12 that is hand bendable by the user to mimic the user's triangular formed by the shoulders, arms and hands when assuming a putting stance. The rod 12 shape is selected from the group of polygon, circle, oval and irregular.

Figure 8 is an illustrative view of the present invention in use. Shown is the golf putting training device 10 with hand bendable deformable rod 12 formed into a triangular configuration by the user 16 conforming to the triangular shape formed by the shoulders 18, arms 20 and hands 22 when assuming a putting stance. The device helps a player monitor and visualize the shape of the triangle in the putting stroke, and helps the player develop the feel of a one-piece pendulum swing motion.

FIGURE 9

Figure 9 is an illustrative view of the present invention in use. Shown is the golf putting training device 10 with the triangulated deformable rod 12 mounted in the tension clip 32 fastened to the shaft 26 of a golf putter 24. The tension clip 32 comprises a pair of semi-circular gripping elements 34 and their respective outwardly flaring wings 36 pivotally connected at the pivot point 38 from which an extension arm 40 projects with a rod receptacle 42 defining an internal rod receptacle 42 disposed on the distal end thereof.
