A golf downswing guide which prevents medial rotation (rotation towards the centre of the body) of the right arm for a right handed golfer during the backswing but more specifically during the downswing. The device consists of a lower and an upper elongated member joined together by an elbow joint which allows pivoting on a single plane. The device attaches to the right arm (for a right handed golfer) A counter acting elongated member is mounted on the lower and upper elongated members by means of pivoting joints. A holding device consisting of a pivoting arm with an elongated opening at the non- pivoting end is attached to a ratchet device which is attached to a base section which in turn attaches to the waist area of the golfer. During the backswing but more specifically the downswing, the counter acting elongated member stays inside the elongated opening of the pivoting arm of the holding device and prevents the counter acting elongated member from moving out of the elongated opening and consequently prevents the right arm from medially rotating during the downswing. The ratchet device allows the pivoting arm to rotate only in one direction. |
