Abstract
A device that helps a golfer improve their swing by providing a track over which to swing the club, a strike plate which swivels to keep contact with the club as long as possible and a resistance to movement over the strike plate in the track so the player understands the weight transfer required in a golf swing. An embodiment includes a sled sliding on at least one rail with front and rear strike plates and a center resistance mechanism that provides adjustable resistance to the swing using pads to contact the rails. The user can set different ranges of resistance.
