Abstract

A golf swing trainer includes a sensor responsive to axial forces and a sensor responsive to lateral forces disposed in electrical communication with an alarm circuit. The training device is responsive to velocity and attitude of the golf club and is operative to provide a user-detectable signal if an improper swing is executed. An alarm is actuated when a predetermined lateral force is exceeded and a predetermined axial force is not exceeded.
