Benefits of technology

The present invention relates to a golf training device that is designed to improve the accuracy and consistency of shots. The training device includes a base assembly and a target assembly. The base assembly is adjustable to support a golf bucket at an angle relative to the ground surface and can be used for different types of shots. The target assembly is attached to the opening of the bucket with a clip and includes a static or movable flag that can be adjusted to point to the left or right. The target assembly carries a signal flag that is movable when a golf ball strikes it. The base assembly also has an arcuate slot that serves as a putting target. The technical effect of the invention is that it provides a convenient and effective tool for golf training and instruction.

Problems solved by technology

The problem with chipping nets is that they take time to set up.
Also, these nets are not particularly stable.
However, even if the ball lands in the target, it more than likely it will bounce or roll out.
These devices do not permit putting practice.

Abstract

A golf chipping and putting training device supports a bucket at an angle for a golfer to practice chipping golf balls. The device includes a base support assembly configured to adjustably support the bucket at a selected angle. The device has a frontal face with a lower opening that is designed to simulate a true 4¼ inch green cup hole. A target assembly presents a target in the bucket opening. Depending on the clip mount, the flag is either static mounted or may act as a signal flag that is operable in response to a golf ball striking the target.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 15 / 348,617, filed Nov. 10, 2016, the contents of which are herein incorporated by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present invention relates to golf training devices and, more particularly, a training device for putting and chipping practice.[0003]The invention solves the problem of being able to practice golf chip shots in a convenient area. Most conventional chip training devices require the use of a net. The problem with chipping nets is that they take time to set up. Also, these nets are not particularly stable. Other chip training devices include chip hoops. The chip hoops lay on the ground as a target and a practitioner chips a ball into it. However, even if the ball lands in the target, it more than likely it will bounce or roll out. In either event, the net or hoops are not collapsible to be stored with the practice balls and target. These devices ...
