Description

Golf hitting practice method and apparatus {METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR EXERCISING GOLF IMPACT}

The present invention relates to a technique for practicing golf hitting, and more particularly, by measuring the hitting accuracy of a golf club using a light emitting and receiving sensor, the measurement result can be expressed in real time to a user (golfer) as a sensory signal. It relates to a golf hitting practice method and apparatus.

In recent years, due to the improvement of living standards according to industrial development, awareness of health, and use as a means of socializing, golf has become popular, and this popular spread of golf is a golf driving range for beginners to practice golf. is leading to the expansion of

That is, it is common for beginners to receive basic golf instruction through practice at the golf driving range before going to the golf course (field). Beginners practice for accurate impact, putting, etc. using these practice golf clubs.

On the other hand, when a user hits a golf ball on the ground for golf practice, the orientation point is shifted due to posture instability, etc., so that the desired result cannot be obtained frequently.

Numerous training tools have been developed to solve these problems, but there is no proper tool that can effectively correct and train these problems.

In particular, in the case of golf, two factors (i.e., the flight direction and distance of the golf ball) must be overcome in the actual field, and training for the sense of distance varies a lot depending on the actual green condition, so overcoming it through training is rather practical. It can be a hindrance in the field where a variety of situations occur.

Therefore, whether it is possible to hit the golf ball in the correct direction is a key training factor that can improve the ability through practice (training) because there is little room for change according to the change of the field situation. .

Here, wireless transmission of each detection time may be performed through, for example, short-range wireless communication such as Bluetooth.

Next, the distance calculating unit 906 calculates the putting distance based on the elapsed time between the first passing time and the second passing time received through the signal receiving unit 904 (step 1010), where the putting distance is real time. It may be calculated through calculation or determined based on a time difference versus distance table (time difference versus distance table) obtained through numerous experiments.

Thereafter, the distance information display unit 908 visually expresses the putting distance through, for example, a display panel (step 1012).

Accordingly, the user can know what the putting distance of the golf ball he puts is, and through continuous putting in this way, the user can effectively realize the putting strength practice of sending the golf ball as much as the target putting distance.
