Abstract:
A golf putter having an improved club head construction comprising a tapered toe and heel, and cut-out portions to distribute weight towards the toe and heal of the club to preventing twisting and to prevent club head interaction with the ground during stroke. In an aspect, the club head further includes alignment indicator lines on an upward facing mounting surface and a alignment indicator line along a shaft connection portion that extends forwardly of the striking face of the club head.
Abstract:
At least three clubs of a set of golf clubs may have an average volume between about 75 cm3 and about 90 cm3. The transverse dimensions of the at least three clubs may progressively decrease from a highest volume club to a lowest volume club. At least one club of a set may include a constraining member in a cavity. A linear distance between a sweet spot and a center of gravity may progressively decrease from a lower lofted club to a higher lofted club within a set. At least one golf club of a set may include a face plate portion, and at least two golf clubs of the set may include a cup face portion. At least two clubs of a set may include a progressively increasing hosel length from a lowest lofted club to a highest lofted club. The strike face of at least one club of a set may include a bulge and a roll. A first club of a set may have a face thickness that is less than a face thickness of a second club of the set.
Abstract:
A golf club with a shaft and an asymmetrical head, wherein said head has a gravitational center which is further from a trailing edge than said striking face and is disposed on a vertical plane which includes said grip axis.

Abstract:
A putter constructed for an improved golf swing with the desired straight back-and-forth stroke. The putter has a bi-weighted club head with a front face and a butt end. A first weight is positioned behind the front face and a second weight is positioned near the butt end of the club head spaced behind the first weight. The putter has a shaft attached to the club head well behind the front face at the location of the second weight. The shaft is angled toward the front face, so that the golfer's hands are positioned over the front face of the club when lining up a putt. The putter has a modified grip that is shaped to fit the golfer's palm, has a flat surface for placing the thumb, and a flat finger pad for receiving the fingertips.
Abstract:
A set of golf clubs is provided with shafts that have a bend formed by three shaft segments. The second shaft segment connects the first and third shaft segments and offsets the third shaft segment from the first shaft segment, wherein the third shaft segment is on a line parallel to a line extending along the first shaft segment. Shafts offset as described are attached to a set of golf club heads such that the offset shafts are positioned in a forward offset position in front of the impact surface of the golf club head with the degree of forward offset increasing with the increasing club number of the club heads of the set. The overall degree of offset can be increased or decreased based on the skill of the golfer using the clubs.
Abstract:
A putter comprises a linearly elongated telescopic shaft having a handle or grip at an end. The shaft is coupled to a putter head at an opposing (lower or inferior) end. The head is adjustable for altering the lie angle of the putter. The putter may further comprise an offset elbow disposed between the shaft and the head. The elbow is rotatable through 360° about the lower or inferior end of the shaft, thus allowing the rotation of the head 16 about the shaft for selecting a right-handed or left-handed putting orientation.
Abstract:
A golf club including a club head with a ball striking face lying in a plane and a shaft connected to the club head. The golf club is formed with an elongated handle, having a cross-sectional configuration with a first length in a direction perpendicular to the plane of said ball striking face and a second length in a direction parallel to the plane of said ball striking face. Alignment indicia in the form of intersecting lines is provided on a top surface of the handle to assist the golfer to properly align the golf club in order to execute a proper golf stroke toward an intended target.
Abstract:
A putter golf club with alignment features includes a handle shaft, a hosel connected to the handle shaft, and a head connected to the hosel. The head includes a front blade which includes a blade back surface which extends vertically in a first vertical plane. A pair of obliquely intersecting upper surfaces, intersecting at a body peak, are located behind the blade back surface and have a vertical height lower than the blade back surface. A body step face is located behind a portion of the upper surface at a predetermined distance away from the blade back surface. The body step face extends vertically in a second vertical plane. The first vertical plane and the second vertical plane is parallel to each other. The predetermined distance between the blade back surface and the body step face define an alignment region. Preferably, the hosel includes planar sides that are aligned with the first and second vertical planes.
Abstract:
A golf club putter and method of putting which complies with the rules of golf provides the player with an improved view of the ball and head of the putter when putting putts of a short distance. The method provides a putting stroke which aids the golfer in carrying out a putting stroke, maintains the putting face of the putter in a perpendicular orientation which respect to the line-of-putt thereby compensating for the golfer's tendency to deviate the putter face from the perpendicular orientation with respect to the line-of-putt. The steps of the method include addressing standing on an opposing side of a golf hole from the golf ball resting a surface of the green, straddling an extending line of the putt extending from the golf ball through the golf hole, extending a golf putter from the opposing side of the golf hole and positioning the putter head of the golf putter behind the golf ball with respect to the golf hole, resting the putter head of the golf putter on the surface of the green behind the ball and drawing the putter head of the golf putter toward the golf hole thereby striking the golf ball on a side of the golf ball opposing the golf hole such that the golf ball travels towards the hole.
