Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make the body reliably learn that a ball must be hit straight by protrusively arranging a guide part on a sole surface of a head so as to be mountable and demountable, and also forming a straight line-shaped groove in which the guide part slidingly moves on a mat. SOLUTION: A guide part 5 is protrusively arranged on a sole surface 4 of a head 3 of a putter so as to be mountable and demountable. Preferably, this guide part 5 is arranged in a sweet spot position of the head 3, and an end part of the guide part 5 is formed in a round shape. The guide part 5 is fixed by screw-fitting a male screw arranged at the root to a female screw arranged in a recessed part 6 in the head 3. On the other hand, a mat 10 is composed of pile 11 whose surface imitates a green and a base part 12 to which the pile 11 is fixed, and a straight line-shaped guide groove 13 is arranged in the putter swinging direction on the mat 10. In this guide groove 13, an opening is widely formed partially so as to easily reenter even if the guide part 5 jumps outside of the groove.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a golf putting practice tool.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventional golf putting practice tools are shown in FIGS. Reference numeral 20 in FIG. 9 is a case having a U-shaped cross section, and has a width W that is equal to or larger than the length of the head h of the putter p so that the putter p can swing inside. The length L is a size that sufficiently considers the swing angle of the putter. Further, both ends are high so that the putter does not come off from the case 20 when the putter is rotated. (For example, 59-
Reference numeral 21 in FIG. 10 is a linear rail body which is formed higher toward both ends. Reference numeral 22 is a support for supporting the linear rail body 21. Reference numeral 23 is a sliding surface of the head h of the putter p. (See, for example, Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 5-78267).

[0003]

In the conventional golf putting practice tool shown in FIG. 9, guide walls are provided on both sides of the putter p, and the putter p is swung so as not to contact the head h with the guide wall. , Putter p was swung with one of the guide walls as a guide, and the practice was completed. In the production without the guide wall,
It is easy to apply force to one side of the head h and it is difficult to hit straight. In addition, the swing locus of the head h cannot be particularly restricted. In the case of FIG. 10, the swing locus of the head h can be regulated, but one side surface of the putter p is slid on the sliding surface 23 of the linear rail body 21.
The head h of the putter p may be damaged because the head h of the putter p is slid. Further, in the production, a force is easily applied to the sliding surface side of the one side of the putter p, and it is difficult to hit it straight. In addition, the putting trajectory is located slightly above the mat, and the feeling of putting is slightly different in the production.

The present invention has been made in view of the conventional problems, and an object thereof is to use one putter for both practice and production in the same manner to hit a ball straight. It is intended to provide a golf putting practice tool that allows the body to remember.

[0005]

In order to achieve the above object, a golf putting practice tool according to the present invention has a guide portion detachably attached to a sole surface of a shaft, and the guide portion is provided on a mat. A linear groove that moves inside was formed, and the guide portion of the putter was moved in the guide groove on the mat.

[0006]

[Operation] Remember that the guide part is driven straight out backward or forward without touching the inner wall surface in the guide groove.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. The present invention is a combination of the putter 1 and the mat 10. On the sole surface 4 of the head 3 of the putter 1, the guide portion 5
To make it detachable. The guide portion 5 is provided at the sweet spot position of the head 3 of the putter. The end portion of the guide portion 5 is formed in a round shape so as to be slippery. Guide part 5
A male screw is provided at the base of the
It is designed to be screwed with a female screw. As shown in FIG. 5, the guide portion 5 is relatively long and has such a length that it does not come out of the guide groove 13 of the mat 10 described later when the putter 1 is swung to the left and right of the points B and C.

As shown in FIG. 4, the mat 10 is a mat for exclusive use of putters. As shown in FIG. 2, the mat 10 comprises a pile 11 having a surface resembling a green and a base 12 to which the pile 11 is fixed. A linear guide groove 13 is provided in the direction in which the putter 1 is shaken. This guide groove 13 is deep,
Even when the sole surface 4 of the head 3 comes into contact with the mat 10 at the point A in FIG.
It is desirable to have a depth that does not touch the bottom of the. As shown by 13a in FIG. 4, the linear guide groove 13 of the mat is formed.
Is the guide portion 5 of the putter 1 at the end of the mat.
However, it is advisable to partially widen the opening so that it can easily enter again even if it jumps out of the groove. Although the groove is disclosed as a vertical wall, some people take a lie angle by slightly tilting the shaft 2 of the putter 1. Therefore, the groove should be inclined as shown by the dotted line 13b in FIG. 2 to suit those people. May be.
Further, the clearance between the wall of the guide groove 13 and the guide portion 5 is
It is easier to practice if it is relatively wide. In that case, an identification line 18 having a certain width that can be seen by a golfer may be provided on the bottom surface of the guide groove 13. Although not shown, an adjustment plate that can change the clearance between the guide portion 5 and the guide groove 13 may be further provided on one surface of the groove 13.

When switching from practice use to production use, the guide portion 5 is removed from the head 3 as shown in FIG. The concave portion 6 of the sole surface 4 from which the guide portion 5 is removed is covered with a cap 7 provided with a male screw so that the entire sole surface 4 is flush.

Next, a method of using the present invention will be described. There are practice and production. First, I will explain for practice. The golfer mounts the guide portion 5 on the sole surface 4 on the back surface of the head 3, rides on the mat 10, holds the putter 1, sets the guide portion 5 in the guide groove 13, and puts the putter 1 thereon. Pull straight back and hit straight forward. The guide portion 5 of the putter 1 is moved along the linear guide groove 13 of the mat 10 without touching the wall surface of the guide 13 groove.
If the guide portion 5 touches the wall surface in the groove, it means that the head 3 of the putter 1 is not linearly swung. Therefore, the guide portion 5 of the putter 1 is guided by the guide groove 1
Practice shaking putter 1 until it no longer touches the wall of 3. If the guide portion 5 of the head 3 moves smoothly in the guide groove 13, that is, if the putter 1 swings smoothly and linearly, the ball is hit straight. The swinging motion of the putter is not a simple circular motion but a linear motion, a slight vertical motion, and a circular motion. In this way, by repeating the practice of shaking, a person who has a habit of not hitting straight until now, or a person who is well understood in theory but cannot hit as intended can get a feeling of hitting straight.

Next, the actual production will be described. Once you can hit straight with this practice tool, putter 1 sole surface 4
Remove the guide part 5 from the above, cover the concave part 6 with the cap 7, and fix it to the normal putter 1, and then insert the guide groove 13 of the same mat 10.
You can hit the ball straight from the place where you removed it with the image you learned during practice.

FIG. 6 shows another example of the guide portion 5, in which the guide portion 5a is slid from the side of the head 3 to be mounted. By removing the guide portion 5a and inserting the stopper 8, it can be used as a normal putter for production.

FIG. 7 shows another example of the mat 10, in which a rotary support 14 for a wood or iron practice ball is attached to the outside of the putter. Outside the putter, wood,
You can practice ironing in the same place.

FIG. 8 shows another example of the mat 10, in which a long mat 15 is further connected to the structure of the mat 10. A support base 16 for supporting the end portion of the long mat 15 is provided under the mat 10, and the upper surfaces of the connected long mats 15 are flush with each other.

[0015]

Since the golf putting practice tool of the present invention is constructed as described above, it has the following effects.

The putter used in the practice can also be used in the production. Therefore, the texture and familiarity of the putter you practiced can be fully utilized in the production.

The guide portion can be easily attached and detached from the putter.

Since the guide portion is provided at the sweet spot position of the head of the putter, the putter can be evenly shaken. Furthermore, it is located at the sweet spot of the putter, so you can learn how to swing the putter accurately.

Since the putter is moved in the guide groove without making contact, the putter is not damaged.

By connecting a long mat to the mat, it is possible to practice long putters.
