Abstract:
1. A golf alignment and targeting aid comprising: (a) a shaft, which is an elongated rod made of a rigid, light-weight material, which shaft has a proximal end and a distal end; (b) a tip, which is a disc-shaped piece of magnetic material rigidly attached to the distal end of the shaft; (c) a sight, which is a vane-shaped, flat extended surface, having a narrow forward end and a broad back end, wherein sight is made of a rigid, light-weight material, and which sight is rigidly attached to the shaft, such that the sight extends longitudinally along the shaft in close proximity to the tip, and such that the forward end of the sight is oriented toward the distal end of the shaft; (d) a top piece, which is a disc-shaped piece of magnetic material rigidly attached to the proximal end of the shaft; and (e) a target sight disc, which is a compact, durable object having the configuration of a polyhedron, cylindrical disc, cone or frustum, with a broad, flat base, such that it the target sight disc maintains a stable position when placed on a substantially flat surface, wherein target sight disc has an exterior surface and an interior volume, wherein interior volume contains an embedded magnet, whereby the target sight disc is removably attachable to either the tip or the top piece by means of a magnetic attraction between the embedded magnet and either the tip or the top piece.
