Embodiment Construction

[0022]The present invention disclosed herein relates to a target for golf practice, which a golfer drives a ball aiming at, and more particularly, to a target for golf practice, which can improve the practice efficiency by allowing a golf to easily distinguish the target even at night and to recognize the driving result with naked eyes by indicating the direction of a driven ball, and particularly, can obtain an effect of exercising in an actual golf course by providing information on the environments (e.g., wind direction and speed) of a golf range to a golfer.

[0023]In a target for golf practice, a target that a golfer aims at when hitting a golf ball is disposed on a blocking net, allowing the golfer to perform a driving practice. Also, in order to arouse a user's interest, various kinds of functions are added to the target, thereby improving the practice efficiency.

[0024]When a golfer hits a ball toward the target, the golfer can promptly and accurately recognize the impact point...

Abstract

Provided is a target for golf practice. The target for golf practice includes a body, a sensing unit, a visual unit, and a controller. The sensing unit is disposed in the body to sense a trajectory and a speed of a driven golf ball and an impact of the golf ball on the body. The visual display unit is disposed in the body to visually display a result of a movement of the golf ball sensed by the sensing unit through flickering. The controller calculates the result of the movement of the golf ball by the sensing unit to control the flickering of the visual display unit.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This U.S. non-provisional patent application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. §119 of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2014-0096299, filed on Jul. 29, 2014, the entire contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Generally, a golf range includes a blocking net which a golf ball driven by a golfer from a driving spot flies to the front side and then free-falls or is hit on and then falls to be collected.[0003]Accordingly, a golf practicer (hereinafter, referred to as a ‘golfer’) has no choice but to repeat a monotonous striking action in which a user simply hits a ball toward the front side. Also, the flying trajectory of the golf ball is inevitably monotonous, and thus the golf practice becomes uninteresting, reducing the practice efficiency.[0004]As an example of such a target for golf practice, Korean Patent No. 10-679482 discloses a target for golf practice. As described in the patent publicati...
