Abstract
A device for practicing repetitive striking movements which is eminently suitable for golf putting practice. The device when for golf comprises a ball mounted on a platform in front of a slot and a hole. Accurate striking of the ball along the correct line 1 which is adjustable in width, gives a reward signal. An inaccurate stroke prevents the signal. The path of the ball is monitored electronically and the ball travels down into the hole to be held there a predetermined time before release and return to the striking position.
