Abstract
A thin, flat member longer than its width has parallel sides and one end formed at a right angle thereto and notched midway between the sides, the other opposite end being pointed. A visible line is formed on the longitudinal axis and extends from the mid portion of the notch on the one end to the apex of the pointed end. The upper surface of the thin flat member is preferably reflective material which enables a golfer to see whether or not his head is over the ball and improves the golfer's view of club head movement after striking the ball. The notch forms a location for a golf ball. The flat member may be creased along its longitudinal axis to facilitate folding. In use the golf guide forms a visual path for the golf club after the golf ball is hit together with a transverse plane of reference for alignment with the head of a golf club when the golf ball is hit.
