Inventor Dave Pelz developed a space spinoff Teacher Alignment Computer for Sunmark Preceptor Golf Ltd. which helps golfers learn proper putting aim. The light beam, reflected into the computer, measures putter alignment and lights atop the box tell the golfer he is on target or off to either side and how much. A related putting aid idea is to stroke the ball at the putter's sweet spot which is bracketed by metal prongs. Regular practice develops solid impacts for better putting.

A related putting aid idea is to stroke the ball at the putter's sweet spot which is bracketed by metal prongs. Regular practice develops solid impacts for better putting.
