Electronic golfing alignment aid and corresponding method

A golfing aid system at least partially configured to be mounted on a golfer is provided. The system includes an optical system, an output configured to provide audio and/or visual information, a human wearable support, a first compass mounted on the wearable support, an optical system. The golfing aid system is configured to, when the wearable support is worn by the golfer, obtain a first compass heading from the first compass for a target location observable through the optical system, obtain a second compass heading when the golfer is in a golfing stance, determine, based on at least the first and second compass headings, whether a part of the body that supports the human wearable support is substantially in alignment with a direction, and provide feedback through the output, the feedback being configured to indicate whether or not the golfer is substantially aligned with the direction. Wherein the direction represents a substantially optimal alignment of a part of the body relative to the first compass heading to strike a golf ball along a path in alignment with the first compass heading.
