Abstract

A golf training device and method giving instantaneous feedback of the quality of the shot. Two opposite, substantially parallel walls are provided between which the golfer stands with his club and a light-weight training ball. Each wall is marked with a grid on the side facing the other wall. The golfer strikes the ball with a driver or approach club towards the front wall. By observing, visually or electronically, where the ball strikes the wall or walls and the floor, the direction and distance of flight are ascertained, against which can be compared subsequent shots in order to determine consistency and improvement. The device and method may be used for various competitions.
