Abstract
Disclosed herein is a golf swing practice device or training aid which aids a golfer in developing and/or maintaining the rhythm and dynamics of a proper swing based principally on the smooth application of an accelerating centrifugal force to the clubhead. The device includes a shaft having a lower portion and a grip disposed over its upper portion. An elongate tubular elastomeric member, whose bottom end may be weighted, is coaxially affixed to the lower portion of the shaft. At least a portion of the length of the tubular elastomeric member extends below the tip of the shaft, thereby being unsupported, and is stretchable in response to the centrifugal force imposed on the member during practice swinging of the device.
