Patent ID: 6988957

Claim:
A golf swing training method for developing a desired spine angle and shoulder turn, the method comprising: positioning a plate horizontally in an abutting relation above a head of a golfer prior to making a golf swing; positioning a rod horizontally and proximate the horizontally disposed plate in an abutting relation to a dominant temple of the golfer; the golfer maintaining contact with the horizontally disposed plate and the horizontally disposed rod during the performance of a golf swing, the horizontally disposed plate and the horizontally disposed rod providing feedback to the golfer when the head of the golfer changes levels during the swing and when the head of the golfer moves in relation to the horizontally disposed rod during the golf swing; positioning a knee barrier for engaging a dominant knee of the golfer in an abutting relation, the golfer positioning the dominant with the knee barrier for cooperating therewith to cause the golfer to lose balance if an attempt is made to straighten the dominant knee during the golf swing, and wherein the dominant knee is constrained to move longitudinally and generally parallel to a target line; positioning a barrier wall vertically, anatomically spaced from, and longitudinally opposing the knee barrier and wherein the barrier wall is positioned on a non-dominant side of the golfer in an abutting relation to a non-dominant leg of the golfer, the vertically disposed barrier wall adjustable for positioning proximate and below a non-dominant hip when the golfer is in a ball-addressing position; the vertically disposed barrier wall providing feedback to the golfer when the body of the golfer moves toward a target during the forward motion of the swing, thus training the golfer to make a swinging motion more rotary than linear, and wherein the golfer learns to shift body weight to the non-dominant leg at the conclusion of the swing.
