A golf swing training device (20) comprised of a grip (26), a foreshortened shaft (24) and a hollow head (28). The head (28) contains a power source (68) activated by a switch assembly (66) also located within the head (28), to illuminate a lamp (74) of the lamp assembly (64), also within the head (28). The lamp (74) emits a beam of light (30) downward to the ground and forward of the club head. The light beam (30) permits the golfer (22) to trace the arc of light corresponding to the golfer's swing to impart a mental image to the golfer of the precise club head path. A second embodiment of the device (120) also comprises a second light source (140) removably contained in the club grip (26) and channel (132) of the club shaft (24) to produce a concentrated beam of light (130) in a direction coincident the longitudinal axis of the club shaft (24). Either embodiment of the device (20, 120) also comprises a linear guide strip (200) which is placed on the ground in front of the golfer (22) to establish the desired club head path. The golfer (22) preferably follows the path of the club head light beam during a swing and compares the light path to the guide strip (200), while also examining the full circle of light produced by the second light source (140) contained in the club grip (26) and shaft (24). |
