Wrist-Training Device for a Golf Swing

Abstract

A wrist-training device for a golf swing is an apparatus that trains a golfer of a consistent proper golf swing form. The apparatus includes a housing, a trigger assembly, and a click-alert assembly. The housing contains the trigger assembly and the click-alert assembly. The housing is wearable as the apparatus includes a length-adjustable strap. The length-adjustable strap wraps around the wrist. A first loop and a second loop connect the length-adjustable strap around the housing. The trigger assembly activates the click-alert assembly. The click-alert assembly notifies the user of proper form with a sound. The trigger assembly includes an actuation plate and a release lever. The click-alert assembly includes a striking latch, a first magnet, and a second magnet. The actuation plate is pressed by the hand, and the release lever is engaged. The release lever releases the striking latch, allowing the first magnet to snap with the second magnet.
