Abstract

A putting gate is disclosed that allows golfers to easily adjust the width of the gate to match their desired putting distance, while also providing the ability to add detachable extensions to the gate to create infinite possibilities in terms of gate sizes. The gate is designed to hinge on magnets or hooks, providing a unique and convenient way to adjust the width of the gate without the need for multiple gates. The use of magnets or hooks also allows for detachable extensions to be added to the gate, allowing golfers to use putting gates at much longer distances than they could before, with benefits for aim, alignment, start direction, and green reading.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A putting gate comprising a main gate frame hinged on one side, wherein the hinging mechanism is provided by magnets or hooks embedded in the frame, allowing the gate to rotate on its hinge and adjust its width between 50 mm to 75 mm to match the desired putting distance without the need for multiple gates. 
     
     
         2 . The putting gate further comprising detachable extensions that can be attached to the main gate frame using magnets or hooks and added to the gate to create infinite possibilities in terms of gate sizes, enabling golfers to use putting gates at much longer distances, providing benefits for aim, alignment, start direction, and green reading. 
     
     
         3 . A method of using a putting gate comprising the steps of:
 hinging the gate on magnets or hooks embedded in the frame;   rotating the gate on the hinge to adjust the width of the gate between the widths of 50 mm to 75 mm;   adding detachable extensions to the main gate frame using magnets or hooks to provide multi-functionality between a standard gate and extending the width by using detachable or extendable pieces via the use of a magnet or hook/eyelet system.   
     
     
         4 . The magnets or hooks according to  claim 2 , used for the hinging mechanism and extensions of the putting gate are securely and durably embedded in the frame and extensions, providing stability and longevity for repeated use. 
     
     
         5 . The compact and portable design of the putting gate according to  claim 1 , makes it easy to transport and store, making it suitable for use both at home and on the go. 
     
     
         6 . The combination of the hinged main gate frame and detachable extensions according to  claim 2 , allows for versatile and flexible use of the putting gate, providing a range of challenges for golfers of all skill levels and helping to improve their aim, alignment, start direction, and green reading abilities. 
     
     
         7 . The detachable extensions of the putting gate can be added or removed as needed, providing versatility and flexibility in terms of gate size and difficulty level. 
     
     
         8 . The hinging mechanism of the main gate frame is adjustable, allowing for a customizable putting distance to suit the needs of each individual golfer.
