Abstract

A golf water-impregnate force practice device comprised of a handle, a connector, and a transparent container. Since the transparent container is filled with water to a level totaling 60 to 80 percent of its capacity, the static equilibrium of the controlling water level as well as the force of release are observable to achieve a proper and effective golf ball striking practice tool.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1) Field of the Invention

The invention herein relates to a golf water-impregnate force practice device in which a transparent container is filled with water to a level totaling 60 to 80 percent of its capacity such that the static equilibrium of the controlling water level as well as the force of release are observable to achieve a proper and effective golf ball striking practice tool.

2) Description of the Prior Art

As is commonly known, to drive a golf ball a maximum distance, the channel of force by the golf club shaft, the angle of the shaft swing, the point of impact on the golf ball, and various other conditions must be interactively adjusted to achieve the best effect; however, the said complexities as well as the swinging action must be developed through long-term proper practice before any results are obtained; at the same time, the timing positions of the applied force and release to be mastered are invisible and, furthermore, cannot be accomplished through a single approach. In view of the variables of the golf swing and the inability to empirically observe the generation of its force and release which can only be gained by repeated practice, learning based on trial and error, and corrective shaft striking methods to slowly achieve progress, the inventor of the invention herein originated an innovative idea which, in conjunction with specialized knowledge and design experience gained while engaged in the relevant industries, culminated in the successful development of the golf water-impregnate force practice device of the present invention.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The objective of the invention herein is to provide a golf water-impregnate force practice device in which a transparent container is filled with water to a level totaling 60 to 80 percent of its capacity such that the static equilibrium of the controlling water level as well as the force of release are observable to achieve a proper and effective golf ball striking practice tool of significant ingenuity.

In addition to the said summary and to enable a further understanding by the examination committee of the advantages, objectives, and functions of the invention herein, the preferred embodiment of the invention herein is accompanied by the brief description of the drawings below and followed by the detailed description of the invention herein.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the golf water-impregnate [0012] force practice device 10 of the invention herein is comprised of a handle 2, a connector 3, and a transparent container 4, of these structural components the handle 2 is of a cylindrical shape with a conjoinment end 21 at one side having disposed within internal threads 22; referring to FIG. 3, the said connector 3 is of a tapered shape with a screw-in column 31 at its top aspect; referring to FIG. 4, the said connector 3 has internal threads 32 along the interior side of its bottom aspect; and the said transparent container 4 has external threads 42 disposed at the front aspect of its tip 41. In the invention herein, the transparent container 4 is 60 to 80 percent filled with water and the external threads 42 at the front aspect of the transparent container 4 tip 41 is screw fastened to the internal threads 32 at the bottom aspect of the connector 3; the screw-in column 31 at the top aspect of the connector 3 is then screw fastened to the internal threads 22 in the conjoinment end 21 of the handle 2 such that a complete water-impregnate force practice device 10 is assembled.

Advantages of the Invention

The said structural features of the invention herein in terms of actual operation, as indicated in FIG. 5, consists of an invisible force utilizing the [0013] transparent container 4 that is 60 to 80 percent filled with water, with the movement of the water employed substituting for a source of force and, furthermore, manifesting an angle of force that is accurately observable by eye; the said movement becomes the force of impact analogous to the striking force of the swing necessary to hit a golf ball in that when the transparent container 4 is situated at a high fixed point, the water is level and descends lightly, the striking force of the water being thereby displayed. However, if raised high rapidly, there is uneven water level surface stability and descent occurs with considerable force such that the striking force is dispersed. During the utilization of the invention herein, when swung to the apex of the stroke (when the container faces the sky) and the still water precludes undulations or, in other words, when the water is in a static state, the greater the impregnate nurtured force, the greater striking force of the downward swing. Meanwhile, for the matching degree of skill of the swing, if excessive force is applied to the handle 2, the overall striking force of the water in the container is reduced and there is no channel of force. If swung lightly upward and the downward swing is also executed lightly, the striking force of the water in the container is considerably large and controls the water level in the container closer to the horizontal, indicating that the cumulative force is greater; when the ball contact position is about to be reached, since the released force is quite large, the wrist flexing action is at its ultimate optimal state. At this time, the center of gravity of the body is directly transferred into hitting the ball, with the body staying undeviated, and when the left hand or the right hand passes by the lower leg section, a slight inward shift occurs and both arms as well as the body move as the lightly gripped shaft rapidly follows through in the direction of the hit; as the shaft comes to rest, any residual force remaining after the completed hit is dispelled to thereby finish shaft recovery; during the entire process as completed within the transparent container 4, the generation, impregnate nurturance, accumulation, static equilibrium, and release of the shaft head force can be observed to clearly understand the overall structure of force displayed.
The invention herein is usable for numerous ball sports to assist players by providing for a proper approach and technique during practice that prevents physical injury resulting from the inappropriate application of strength and, furthermore, is a very simple and inexpensive tool in an advanced field that enables athletes to develop through an ingenious means of practice. [0014]
In summation of the foregoing section, since the invention herein is capable of achieving the claimed application objectives, with the disclosed general structure also being of superior practical value and, furthermore, no identical or similar product has been observed in the market, the present invention is submitted to the examination committee for review and the granting of the commensurate patent rights.
