Abstract
A golf swing training device and method, the device including opposing right-hand and left-hand gripping portions or areas of a frame or circular disc. The gripping portions are spaced apart a distance somewhat equal to the golfer's waist width so that the arms are correctly positionable as in a proper golf stance and swing. A preferred angular orientation of the gripping portions one to another is about 135.degree. and may be in the range of about 90.degree. to 180.degree.. By firmly grasping each gripping portion with the device positioned in front of the golfer similar to that of a golf club, the device may now be swung and properly rotated during an entire practice golf swing to accurately simulate the hand, arm and body movement of a proper golf swing. Viewable arrow indicia positioned centrally on an obverse surface of the device viewably advises the golfer of the proper rotational orientation at each stage of the swing.
