INCLINING GOLF PRACTICE PLATFORM PIVOTABLE BY USER'S WEIGHT

摘要

A practice platform is provided for use by a golfer to practice swinging aclub on different inclines. The practice platform has a deck pivotally mounted to a base.Unlike known prior practice golf platforms, the deck is intended to be pivoted to differentinclines solely by the golfer's positioning himself upon the deck so that his weightcauses the deck to pivot, without the use of a power drive mechanism. The platformincludes a mechanism to hold the deck in the selected position, and also to facilitatepositioning of the deck by restricting it from pivoting freely through its full range ofmotion in reaction to the golfer's weight. A valve is provided which can controlsimultaneously the pivoting of the deck in all directions.
