Abstract:

This invention promotes quicker swing speed and or balance, by using aero dynamic, properties as you would use a dragsters, parachute to slow down, a moving car, without brakes, when you swing this training device it builds up your muscles, and helps your balance, without using weighted clubs, this mimics the golf swing, more natural, because it does not add weight to a club, head, therefore it is a better swing trainer, and just uses wind resistance, at the clubhead, to slow down your normal swing, therefore, increases, and builds the right muscles needed for better swing speed, as I said before, I can send pictures of my proto-type, if needed.

Description

This is a glove like pouch which fits over a Golf club head, and attached to the top of club head, there is, like a little parachute like a dragster being slowed down, when cord gets pulled, it is approx. 2 inches or so in diameter, and made out of Para sailing material, very light weight stuff, it trails like a sock attached to the top of the club head and uses wind resistance to slow down the club head at practice, it is attached many ways to club head with Velcro or ect.

But the principle behind it is to slow the golf club down, with wind resistance, thus building golf club speed, and balance by using this principle, can be made to fit Irons or drivers, the wind resistance slows your swing down and builds muscles and makes you swing faster without using a weighted clubhead.

Can be made a variety of ways, but is using the same principle is pulling a chute, that slows down the club, it can be used for practice, and made to go on and off the club head quickly, like I said it resembles a sock attached to the top of a golf club. And fills with air as you swing it, therefore slowing down the club and building resistance and make your swing speed faster first time you use it.

Would like to develop it with a major golf company, but can send pictures of the proto-type I made if need be.

BACKGROUND OF INVENTION

Was just thinking of ways to help me slow down my club head, with out adding weight, which makes your swing feel foreign and thought this out.

Claims

1. This invention, claims by using the wind resistance, using the bag like device sewed on top of the club head, creates resistance to the swing, which builds your muscles, and helps you create better balance, as well, using this training aid, that will help you build better swing speed, and help you to hit the ball farther, and better.

2. If more information is needed, then I can send pictures of the proto-type I made. It is self explanatory.
