Abstract
A golf swing timing trainer formed, in its preferred embodiments, from (a) a forearm brace that serves as a base for the other operative elements of the device; (b) a generally linear member, which member is pivotally connected to the forearm brace at one of its ends and has a vee shaped notch at its other end which fits against the shaft of a golf club held by the user when said club is cocked in the proper plane for a golf stroke; (c) an adjustable biasing means disposed between said forearm brace and said generally linear member, which biasing means generates an adjustable force proportionate to the angle between the forearm brace and the generally linear member/shaft such that the greatest force is experienced by the user when the shaft is cocked and the least is experienced by the user when it is fully extended; and (d) an audible signal generator that indicates when the shaft is not fully cocked.
