Golf club putter

摘要

A golf club putter that includes a head and shaft, with the head being defined by pairs of side walls and end walls and a back wall that cooperate to provide an elongate cavity of substantially greater length than width. A resilient block is disposed in the cavity and extends forwardly therefrom to terminate in a flat striking surface disposed forwardly of the leading edges of the pairs of side walls and end walls. The pair of side walls has a pair of rearwardly extending centrally disposed recesses formed therein. The striking surface when a portion thereof between the pair of recesses impacts a golf ball deforms rearwardly momentarily into a generally elliptical configuration that has the major axis thereof substantially normal to the surface on which the golf ball rests, and the deformed portion while still in contact with the golf ball returning towards its initial flat shape to impart forward motion to the golf ball. The deformed portion does not deflect the golf ball laterally as the major part of the deformation is vertical rather than horizontal. The pair of recesses in addition to serving this function prevents the leading edges of the pair of side walls contacting the golf ball during the putting of the latter. Also, the pair of recesses permits opposite sides of the resilient block to be gripped between the thumb and forefinger to facilitate the removal of the block from the cavity to permit another block of lesser or greater resiliency to be inserted in the cavity.
