A golf swing training,apparatus having a saddle (91) for attachment to the hips of a golfer, a first assembly (83) to guide the saddle (91) laterally during the golf swing, a second assembly to promote opposite hip rotations during the golfer's backswing and follow-through, respectively, and a third assembly to position the golfer's shoulders throughout the swing. The first assembly (83) includes a traveler mounted to move laterally on a straight track (61) which is rotatably mounted on a pivotable connecting as- sembly (47, 48, 49) which is supported by a base (13). The second assembly is a spring and hinge assembly having a first hinge (93) around which the saddle (91) rotates during the backswing and a second hinge (94) around which the saddle rotates (91) during the follow-through. The third as- sembly includes a vest (136) worn by the golfer, a rigid back plate (135), a vertically extensible support assembly (122) rotatably mounted on the saddle and tension means which apply rotational ford to the support assembly (122) during, the backswing. A leg movement limiting device (138) is attached to the base (13) or positioned on the sur- face on which the golfer stands to limit the golfer's leg movement during the golf swing.
