A putter trainer device for detecting inaccuracies in a golf puffing
stroke. The puffing trainer device of the present invention is releasably
(2) attached to a shaft of a golf putter and comprises two guided ramps
(19A, 19B) with each ramp having an active position and a neutral
position. In one embodiment, a free rolling disc magnet (20A, 20B) is
located upon each guided ramp and each free rolling disc magnet is biased
towards the neutral position (23A, 23B) on its respective ramp. The
movement of either free rolling magnet from the neutral position to the
active position is detected by magnetic reed switches (25A, 25B) located
adjacent each ramp. A speaker is activated when the magnetic reed
switches detect that either free rolling magnet has moved from the
neutral position to the active position.
