Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to golf equipment and more particularly to golf putter heads.
  • the present invention is directed to a reflective perimeter-weighted golf putter head.
  • the golf putter head generally includes a striking surface and a reflective surface extending above the striking surface.
  • the reflective surface reflects an image of a golf ball to a user when the golf ball is positioned adjacent the striking surface.
  • the golf putter head further includes a rear surface positioned opposite the striking surface and the reflective surface.
  • the rear surface has at least one cavity therein so as to define a weighted perimeter portion on the rear surface. The weighted perimeter portion extends at least partially above the striking surface.
  • FIG. 1 is a front perspective view of a golf putter head according to one embodiment of the present invention
  • FIG. 2 is a front view of the golf putter head shown in FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 3 is a rear view of the golf putter head shown in FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 4 is a side view of the golf putter head shown in FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 5 is a top view of the golf puffer head shown in FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 6 is a bottom view of the golf putter head shown in FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 7 is a front perspective view of a golf putter head according to another embodiment of the present invention.
  • FIG. 8 is a front view of the golf putter head shown in FIG. 7;
  • FIG. 9 is a rear view of the golf putter head shown in FIG. 7;
  • FIG. 10 is a side view of the golf putter head shown in FIG. 7;
  • FIG. 11 is a top view of the golf putter head shown in FIG. 7;
  • FIG. 12 is a bottom view of the golf putter head shown in FIG. 7.
  • the golf putter head 10 includes a striking surface 12 and a reflective surface 14 which extends above the striking surface 12 .
  • the reflective surface 14 reflects an image of a golf ball 15 to a user when the striking surface 12 is positioned adjacent the golf ball 15 on a putting surface 17 .
  • the reflective surface 14 can be used by a golfer to statically and dynamically align the putter head 10 with the golf ball 15 .
  • the term “golf ball” as used herein shall be construed to include golf balls approved by the United States Golf Association (USGA) and golf balls approved by the Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrews.
  • the golf putter head 10 further includes a rear surface 16 positioned opposite (i.e., on a backside of) the striking surface 12 and the reflective surface 14 , as best shown in FIG. 3.
  • the rear surface 16 includes a weighted perimeter portion 18 which extends above the striking surface 12 , shown in phantom in FIG. 3.
  • the weighted perimeter portion 18 increases the effective contact area of the striking surface 12 with the golf ball 15 .
  • the weighted perimeter 18 extends or increases the “sweet spot” of the striking surface 12 . Accordingly, the weighted perimeter 18 thus allows the putter head 10 to be more forgiving and more effective at delivering a truer hit to the golf ball 15 when the point of contact between the golf ball 15 and the striking surface 12 does not coincide with the location of the center of mass of the putter head 10 .
  • the weighted perimeter portion 18 extends along both sides 19 and 21 of the golf ball 15 when the striking surface 12 is positioned adjacent the golf ball 15 on the putting surface 17 .
  • the weighted perimeter portion 18 also extends substantially from a heel portion 20 to a toe portion 22 above the striking surface 12 . That is, the weighted perimeter 18 may extend above and substantially around an upper hemisphere 23 of the golf ball 15 when the striking surface 12 is positioned adjacent the golf ball 15 sitting on the putting surface 17 .
  • the weighted perimeter portion 18 is designed along with other putter head features (e.g., the striking surface 12 and the reflective surface 14 ) to position the center of gravity 29 for the putter head 10 as desired horizontally and vertically.
  • the weighted perimeter portion 18 extends not only above the center of gravity 25 of the golf ball 17 but above the top edge 27 of the golf ball 15 as well when the golf ball 15 and putter head 10 are resting on the putting surface 17 .
  • the center of gravity 29 of the putter head 10 is located not only above a center of gravity 25 of the golf ball 15 but above the top edge 27 of the golf ball 15 as well when the golf ball 15 and putter head 10 are both positioned on the putting surface 17 .
  • Positioning the putter head center of gravity 29 above the golf ball center of gravity 25 enables the putter head 10 to impart a downward force vector to the golf ball 15 .
  • the golf ball center of gravity 25 is disposed 0.84 inches (2.13 centimeters) above the putting surface 17
  • the golf ball top edge 27 is disposed 1.68 inches (4.27 centimeters) above the putting surface 17 .
  • the center of gravity 29 of the putter head 10 is shown disposed 1.80 inches (4.57 centimeters) above the putting surface 17 when the putter head 10 is resting on the putting surface 17 .
  • the rear surface 16 has at least one cavity or recessed portion 24 therein.
  • a portion of the cavity 24 extends above the striking surface 12 so as to define the weighted perimeter portion 18 on the rear surface 16 .
  • the recessed portion 24 defines at least one non-recessed portion 26 , which constitutes the weighted perimeter portion 18 of the rear surface 16 .
  • the cavity 24 is centered between the heel portion 20 and the toe portion 22 of the golf putter head 10 .
  • the rear surface 16 is shown having three cavities 24 , 28 , and 30 . It should be noted, however, that the rear surface 16 may be provided with any number of cavities, and these cavities can be shaped and positioned as necessary to locate the center of gravity of the putter head 10 and provide the putter head 10 with a weighted distribution as desired.
  • any of a wide range of geometric shapes may be used for the cavities 24 , 28 , and 30 .
  • the cavity 24 is substantially diamond-shaped, and the cavities 28 and 30 are substantially triangularly shaped.
  • the golf putter head 10 has a monolithic construction and is thus integrally formed as a single component.
  • the golf putter head may comprise separate components that are secured to one another, for example, by welding and/or other suitable fastening methods.
  • the putter head 10 may also be fastened to a shaft 32 (shown in phantom) via a shaft hole 34 .
  • the reflective surface 14 of the putter head 10 may be used as follows. At address, the golfer places the striking surface 12 of the putter head 10 adjacent the golf ball 15 on the putting surface 17 and statically aligns the golf ball 15 with the reflected image of the golf ball 15 on the intended putting path. Once statically aligned, the golfer brings the putter head 10 back on the backswing of the putting stroke. During the backswing, the reflected image of the golf ball 15 visually travels up the reflective surface 14 . Ideally, the golfer keeps the moving image of the ball centered on the putter head 10 during the entirety of the putting stroke.
  • the golf putter head 10 is preferably provided with one or more guide lines 42 and 44 , as shown in FIG. 5.
  • the golfer is able to keep the stroke along the intended putting line.
  • the golf putter head 110 includes a striking surface 112 , a reflective surface 114 which extends above the striking surface 112 , and a rear surface 116 positioned opposite the striking surface 112 and the reflective surface 114 .
  • the rear surface 116 includes a weighted perimeter portion 118 which extends above the striking surface 112 .
  • the reflective surface 114 may be used for aligning the putter head 110 with a golf 115 on a putting surface 117 in a manner similar to that previously described for the reflective surface 14 of the putter head 10 .
  • the golf putter head 110 also includes weights 140 attached to the rear surface 116 .
  • the weights 140 may have a density that is either higher, lower, or the same as the density of the rear surface 116 depending on the weight distribution that is desired for the putter head 110 .
  • the weights 140 may be removably attached to the rear surface 116 . If removable, the weights 140 can be added and/or removed as desired even after the putter head 110 is manufactured.
  • the weights 140 may also be positioned within a cavity (e.g., 124 , 128 , 130 ) defined in the rear surface 116 .
  • the golf putter head 110 includes two weights 140 each of which is positioned within the diamond-shaped cavity 124 .
  • the weighted perimeter portion 118 and weights 140 distribute a substantial portion of the weight of the putter head 110 higher and wider than the golf ball 115 so as to better distribute the impact force between the striking surface 112 and the golf ball 115 . This, in turn, increases the golfer's opportunity at achieving a straighter and truer putt of the golf ball 115 with the putter head 110 .
