发明名称 METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR USING A FREQUENCY-SELECTABLE INSERT IN A GOLF CLUB HEAD
摘要 <p>A selectable insert for a golf club head (e.g., for a golf putter) is configured to produce a predetermined frequency response through the use of, for example, a damped single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) system. A set of such inserts are provided, and one or more inserts from that set is selected in accordance with the response of an individual, for example, an individual's subjective response to the sound of the insert and/or an individual's biomechanical response to the "feel" or discomfort produced by vibrations propagating through the golf club to the individual. In this way, a customized insert may be selected in accordance with, for example: whether and to what extent the individual finds the frequency response of the inset pleasing to the ear; the extent to which the insert produces unpleasant vibrations in the hands, wrists, arms, and other parts of the individual's body; whether the weighting of the club head is suitable; whether the club head is susceptible to unwanted twisting during impact; and/or whether the overall "feel" of the club is subjectively acceptable.</p>
