Abstract:

A golf swing guide having a generally triangular configuration that will allow the golf student to swing a golf club as most golf teachers want their students to swing, otherwise the golf student will abruptly hit the golf swing guide with his elbow and will not be able to complete the back or downswing without severe interference from the golf swing guide with his elbow. The golf swing guide is designed so that the golf student must start the back swing with his hands, arms and shoulders as a unit, allowing the hips to turn with the swing. The golf swing guide being buckled to the student's waist will also turn and allow the student's elbow to slide along the near part of the outer side. The downswing is initiated by the hips turning towards the target, again the golf swing aid will turn with the hip movement and allow the student's elbow to slide along the far part of the outer side. When the student's elbow clears the swing guide the student will have finished the swing high and towards the target.
