ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Apparatus for use by one manipulating a device to be swung such as a golf club, bat or the like. A weighted member such as a slider is secured to a means for guiding the slider through a pre-determined path, such for example, as an arcuate guide member. A pair of flexible cords are secured to a pair of spaced apart posts and engage both the slider and the device to be swung with one of the cords secured at its other end to the device to be swung and the other to the slider. As the user swings the device to be swung, such as a golf club, the slider is caused to traverse the pre-determined path causing the flexible cords to become taut or slack at pre-determined points throughout the swing, thereby causing the device to be swung to accelerate at a maximum speed through a desired point and to assume a desired position while moving at the maximum speed. Thus both timing and power are developed for the swing. One of the cords may have a rigid rod-like member substituted for it with one end of the rod secured to the weighted member or slider and with the rod passing through a ring or loop secured to the device to be swung. -1- Also disclosed is apparatus where the cords may pass through a stop means and over a pulley or the like to a position for attachment to the shoulders of the user. Thus as the user swings the device his shoulders are automatically placed into the proper positions as required to accommodate the particular swing. Also disclosed as an alternative to the arcuate guide member and slider is an elongated rod supported for rotation about a pivot point and having a universally attached ring member thereon which is engaged by the flexible cords.
