Abstract: |
The golf alignment device of this invention is an adjustable frame, comprising a first side of said frame marked with indicia for positioning the forward foot of the golfer and being marked with indicia for placement of the rear foot according to the club to be used; a slotted second side of the frame extending from the end of the first side of the frame nearest the forward foot, which second side bears indicia for placement of the golf ball; a slotted third side extending from the other end of the first side; a fourth side joined to the ends of the second and third sides to form a frame; a first ball marker arm extending from the second side and within the frame, which arm is perpendicular to the second side and a pivotal second marker arm extending within the frame from the first side, the second marker arm being disposed such that an imaginary line extending from the center of its terminal end within the frame intersects a point just beyond the terminal end of the first marker arm situated within the frame.

I claim:
1. A golf training device comprising an enclosed frame having a first side for placement of the golfer's feet contiguous thereto, slotted second and third sides secured thereto and extending from opposite ends of the first side, the position of the first side relative to the second and third sides being adjustable by movement of the first side along the length of the slotted second and third sides, a fourth side secured to the second and third sides so as to define together with the first, second and third sides an enclosed frame; said frame having disposed thereon a first marker arm extending a distance within the enclosed frame and being disposed perpendicular to the second side of the enclosed frame and, further, said enclosed frame having a second marker arm adjustably disposed on the first side of the enclosed frame and extending within and beyond the enclosed frame, said second marker arm being alignable with the first marker arm such that an imaginary line from the terminal end of the second marker arm extends through a point contiguous to the terminal edge of the first marker disposed within the frame.
