Abstract
A device for training a golfer to make a proper and accurate golf stroke comprises a housing having a channel for variably mounting said housing on a golf club in at least a first position and a second position. A transducer is included in the housing for monitoring deviations of golf club travel from a linear direction during a golf stroke when the housing is mounted on the golf club in the first position, and for monitoring acceleration of the golf club through a golf ball during a golf stroke when the housing is mounted on the golf club in the second position. A buzzer and a light source energizable for providing the golfer with feedback indicative of the deviations or acceleration is operatively associated with the transducer. The transducer comprises optical reflective detectors for monitoring the offset positions of a mass on the upper end of a cantilevered spring having its lower end fixed to a circuit board including an aperture therein in which the mass is disposed.
