Abstract

The present invention aids golfers in developing a better golf swing in a quick, easy and effective manner, comprising a “C”-shaped head rest that is positioned across the user's forehead and padded for comfort. The headrest is connected to an extendable shaft that varies in length from 4 feet long to 7 feet long. To use the apparatus, the user or a golf trainer would first position the user in a proper swing stance. Next, the apparatus is placed between the user's forehead and the ground at an outward angle. At this point the user completes his or her golf swing. If their head should stay properly positioned, the apparatus remains in place. If their head should move, the apparatus will fall away to the ground. After a period of time and repeated use, the user will be trained to maintain a proper head position at all times, even when the apparatus is not being utilized.
