Golfers are always looking for ways to improve their scores. As a result, many different kinds of training devices have been disclosed for improving various aspects of a golfer’s skills. Some such training devices are specifically configured to improve a golfer’s swing so that he or she hits a golf ball longer or straighter or more accurately. Normally, such training devices are designed to be used at a hitting range where repeated use of the device will produce muscle memory or other physical effect to alter the golfer’s swing for better using conventional golf clubs during an actual round of golf. A golf club swing training apparatus and method for fabricating it are provided. The apparatus teaches golfers to swing the club to selectively shape a ball’s trajectory so that it moves right-to-left or left-to-right in a controlled manner. The apparatus includes a club shaft and slide mechanism. The shaft includes an upper portion and lower portion that are spaced apart to form a gap there-between. The mechanism is inserted within this gap and is connected to the lower end of the upper shaft portion and the upper end of the lower shaft portion. The mechanism is configured to permit a lateral shift of this lower portion relative to this upper portion during swinging of the club. The method uses an alignment apparatus to maintain the elongated axis of the upper shaft portion in substantial alignment with the elongated axis of the lower shaft portion when the mechanism is being connected.
