training aid for a 2 year old

I've done something similar. Except I took small diameter pvc pipe and made marks where their feet go. The marks are made from masking tape that I colored. That way as they grow you can move the marks around. You can take it anywhere and not worry about putting tape down, especially out on grass, etc..

My 6 year old daughter has a pretty good swing and my 2 year old son has an amazing swing. Has a better follow through than 3/4 of the golfers out there. He loves the game, best thing is I don't push him like some parents do. Only problem is he likes to hit pink balls on red tees. Oh well...

We were using sticks outside, but the pvc w/ tape is perfect, thanks for the idea!

This is probably going to far, but I like to build stuff - I'm thinking I could take the pvc and made a 'T' shape, where the long side of the T is pointing towards the ball. And to make it more fun, it would be cool if the pvc were big enough to put a golf ball in, then setup the PVC so the whole thing sits on a slant towards the ball. Instead of a 'T' fitting, use a T with another female fitting on top (I'll get a pic), so they can put the ball in and have it roll out in perfect position to hit it. OK, I gotta make this; my son would love it!

You and me must be alike. I've made something pretty cool myself (different from this). Won't go into detail since some day I would like to market it. I think it's a possibility. Good product, decent price, and good marketing, it could work. Like I said, it's pretty dang cool. I love PVC!

Good luck with your "invention"!
