pA device worn by a golf player around his following hand, wrist and lower forearm to aid in the proper hand placement for a proper golf swing. When worn, the device positions the following hand to promote a following club or racquet swing, yet allows the release of the following wrist. The golf swing trainer includes a rigid brace which has an inner side and an outer side and two or three straps attached to the outer surface of the rigid brace. The rigid brace is contoured so that a golfer's following hand is in the angle which is created when a golf club is swung with the club head following the turning body. The first and third straps are made of a non-resilient material and the second strap, which is in between the first strap and the third strap, is made of a resilient material. There is an angle adjustment system included with the device. It is a system of removable spacer pads which are used in combination to create a variety of present angles for the device. The removable spacer pads are located between the device and the lower forearm and are attached to the device by either a pressure sensitive adhesive or hook and loop fastening method. The pads are located under the brace at the lower forearm, and the stack of pads adjusts the angle./p [US5634854A]
