Abstract
A hook shaped or generally concave hip-turn restrictor provides for maximizing the differential angle between a golfer's shoulder and hip so that an increased torsional force will be transferred from the golfer's torso to a golf ball. The generally concave member receives and engages a golfer's hips and is rotatable about a pivot axis but for a stop member which limits rotation of the generally concave member during the backswing of a golf swing.
