    摘要: An apparatus for and method of training a user's swing for sports. The user grasps a main shaft and positions the main shaft adjacent to a back shoulder when assuming a golf stance or batter's stance. The user supports a shape structure mounted to the main shaft in an orientation wherein the shape structure is facing upwards for golf swing training and faces downwards for baseball or softball swing training. The shape structure may be square in shape. The shape structure and main shaft have a center of mass that is offset from the longitudinal axis of the main shaft. The main shaft may have a segment of reduced diameter, e.g., a proximal shaft segment and a segment of shape diameter, e.g. a distal shaft segment. The proximal shaft segment may define grip features. The main shaft may be of solid construction.

    摘要: A putting gate is disclosed that allows golfers to easily adjust the width of the gate to match their desired putting distance, while also providing the ability to add detachable extensions to the gate to create infinite possibilities in terms of gate sizes. The gate is designed to hinge on magnets or hooks, providing a unique and convenient way to adjust the width of the gate without the need for multiple gates. The use of magnets or hooks also allows for detachable extensions to be added to the gate, allowing golfers to use putting gates at much longer distances than they could before, with benefits for aim, alignment, start direction, and green reading.

    摘要: A golf practice assembly for practicing bunker shots on a golf course includes a golf mat that has a turf portion comprised of artificial turf and a bunker portion comprised of a deformable bag. The bunker portion simulates sand in a bunker of a golf course to facilitate a golfer to practice bunker shots without traveling to a golf course. A granular material is disposed within the deformable bag thereby facilitating the deformable bag to simulate sand in the bunker of the golf course. In this way the granular material increases difficulty for the golfer to practice the bunker shots.

    摘要: Techniques are disclosed where computer technology is practically applied to solve the technical problem of helping golfers align their golf shots with respect to their targets. This technology can operate in coordination with an alignment device (e.g., an alignment stick) used by the golfer as an aid for aligning the golf shot with the target. In an example, the disclosed system can use image processing in combination with computer-based modeling of physical relationships with respect to an alignment device, ball, and/or target that exist in the real world to compute and adjust alignments for golf shots. This technology can provide real-time feedback to golfers for improved training and shot accuracy.

    摘要: A method for improving a player's performance, such as reaction time or swing time by measuring the time it takes a player to change from a load position to a swing position where the player's bat makes contact with the ball when presented with a stimulus emitted from a timer. This method measures the time elapsed by utilizing a timer that configured to emit a stimulus, such as an audible sound, receive an external stimulus, such as the sound of the player's bat making contact with the ball, record the time elapsed, and present the time on a display.

    摘要: A hand weight includes a chassis including a handle portion configured to be grasped by a user such that a forearm of the user extends along an axis, and a flexible element attached to the chassis. The hand weight can be configured to receive a movable mass, and the flexible element can be configured to at least partially support the movable mass such that the movable mass forms at least part of a sprung mass of a hand weight assembly including the hand weight and the movable mass, the sprung mass configured to move relative to the chassis of the hand weight and deform the flexible element in response to a force in a direction along the axis applied to the handle portion by the user while grasping the handle portion.
