The £10,000 machine which allows paralysed golfer to keep on swinging



Although paralysed from the waist down, sports fan Graham Hunt's real handicap is with a club after he discovered a high-tech machine which allows him to play golf.
The 24-year-old fell in love with the game after playing a simulated version in his living room on his Nintendo Wii.
But Mr Hunt, from Great Holland, Essex, never dreamed he would be able to take a swing on a real course after a neurological condition paralysed his legs three years ago.
However, he has now discovered the Paragolfer machine which enables him to be held upright to play golf standing up.
