More Information
Summary:A training device having particular adaptability to the game of golf which serves to selectively control and limit head movement of the student during practice swinging and, therefore, affords proper instruction relative to hip-shoulder and turning movement, balance, timing, effective muscle development and usage and, as well, a reduction in training time. The invention is broadly defined by a selectively removable flexible band surrounding the student's head mounted on an arm extending outwardly from a vertically adjustable support mounted on a base. The latter includes provisions for positive positioning at the training site. The headband, typically made from fabric, is mounted on rotatable metal or wire segments interconnecting loops in the fabric and holes in a mounting plate, where the headband serves to limit or control the position of the trainee's head or indicates to the trainee information as to existing head movement. The overall unit is positioned by a spike and anchor pin arrangement.
