Lawn game method using rolling disks

Номер: US20120068405A1
Автор: Matthew J. Butler
Принадлежит: Individual

A lawn game uses a pair of markers toward which each player rolls a disk while standing proximate the other maker. Once all disks have been rolled, the disk closest to the marker determines which player scores points for that round. For the player scoring points, all of that player's disks that are within a certain distance from the rolled to marker score, with each disk laying flat, the number showing on the side of the disk equals the points gained for that disk, the sum of the numbers on each side of a disk remaining on its outer edge equals the points gained for that disk, and the number showing on the side of the disk laying against the rolled to marker multiplied by a multiplier equals the points gained for that disk. A rope removably attachable to the markers helps with measurements.

The Power Arc Exercise Device is a portable, lightweight exercise device that strengthens the muscles used in sports requiring strong rotation of the body. Examples of sports that require strong rotation of the trunk and hips include baseball batting, golf and tennis. The Power Arc Exercise Device uniquely exercises the exact muscles used to produce rotation. The Power Arc Exercise Device also provides resistance to the muscles of rotation in an optimum direction. The optimum direction of resistance for any exercise device is a ninety degree angle to the direction of the body's movement. Exercise bands provide linear resistance only to movement that is in a rotary direction and as such do not provide effective resistive exercise. The Power Arc Exercise device enables athletes to maximally strengthen muscles used to develop power and control in their individual sport In addition to strengthening the core muscles of the trunk and hip, the Power Arc Exercise Device also provides strengthening for the arm and hand muscles. 1. A power arc exercise device comprising:a. A base which can be secured to a door for use and also removed when not in useb. A curved track holding a resistance springc.

A golf swing practice and improvement device is disclosed for better training the golfing enthusiast to make straighter shots when hitting a golf ball, without hooking or slicing the ball. The device is provided with an adjustable boom assembly supported to provide three-dimensional positioning to a head guide assembly attached to the boom assembly. The head guide is provided so that it can be placed at lateral or side portions of a golfer's head to guide and keep the head in position while the golfer is making their golf club swing to the golf ball. The boom assembly is made to be withdrawn from the golfer's head just after the golfer makes contact in swinging their gold club with the ball. In doing so the golfer trips a sensing assembly of the invention when following through with the shot which provides an activating force or signal to move the head guide assembly away and above from the golfer's head, while permitting the golfer to make a natural follow-through with their swinging club after hitting the golf ball.
