Each weight has an annular weight housing that has a four-sided channel extending longitudinally therethrough, and with each weight housing having a threaded opening. The rod extends through the channel of the weight housing of the at least one weight, and a threaded setting screw is threaded through the threaded opening and impinges on one of the four sides of the rod to secure the weight inside the four-sided channel. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A golf putter, comprising a hollow shaft that has a longitudinal channel, a grip that surrounds a portion of the shaft, a putter head, and an adjustable counter-balance weight system that is positioned inside the longitudinal channel of the hollow shaft, the weight system comprising: a rod that has a four-sided configuration; at least one weight, each of the at least one weight having an annular weight housing that has a channel extending longitudinally therethrough; and wherein the rod extends through the entire channel of the weight housing of the at least one weight. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The golf putter of claim 1, wherein each weight housing has a threaded opening, and the weight system further includes a threaded setting screw that is threaded through the threaded opening and impinges on one of the four sides of the rod. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The golf putter of claim 1, wherein the at least one weight is positioned inside the grip. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The golf putter of claim 1, wherein the at least one weight comprises a first weight and a second weight that are positioned in spaced-apart manner along the rod. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The golf putter of claim 1, wherein the rod has a first end and a second end, the weight system further including an end cap that has a four-sided bore for retaining the second end of the rod. ### Claim 6 (depends on 5) The golf putter of claim 5, wherein the weight system further includes a front cap that is threadably engaged in reverse with the first end of the rod, and which is positioned inside the putter head. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The golf putter of claim 1, wherein the rod has a length with opposite ends, and wherein the at least one weight is positioned along the length of the rod at a location that is offset from both the opposite ends of the rod. ### Claim 8 A golf putter, comprising a hollow shaft that has a longitudinal channel, a grip that surrounds a portion of the shaft, a putter head, and an adjustable counter-balance weight system that is positioned inside the longitudinal channel of the hollow shaft, the weight system comprising: a rod that has a four-sided configuration; at least one weight, each of the at least one weight having an annular weight housing that has a four-sided channel extending longitudinally therethrough; wherein the rod extends through the channel of the weight housing of the at least one weight; and wherein each weight further includes at least one bushing surrounding the weight housing, the bushing having a plurality of extensions, with the weight housing positioned inside the longitudinal channel of the shaft and the plurality of extensions impinging against the longitudinal channel of the shaft to center the weight inside the channel of the shaft. ### Claim 9 (depends on 8) The golf putter of claim 8, wherein the bushing and the weight housing are made from different materials. ### Claim 10 A golf putter, comprising a hollow shaft that has a longitudinal channel, a grip that surrounds a portion of the shaft, a putter head, and an adjustable counter-balance weight system that is positioned inside the longitudinal channel of the hollow shaft, the weight system comprising: a rod; at least one weight, each of the at least one weight having an annular weight housing that has a channel extending longitudinally therethrough, with each weight housing having a threaded opening; wherein the rod extends through the channel of the weight housing of the at least one weight; and a threaded setting screw that is threaded through the threaded opening and impinges on the rod; wherein each weight further includes at least one bushing surrounding the weight housing, the bushing having a plurality of extensions, with the weight housing positioned inside the longitudinal channel of the shaft and the plurality of extensions impinging against the longitudinal channel of the shaft to center the weight inside the channel of the shaft. ### Claim 11 (depends on 10) The golf putter of claim 10, wherein the bushing and the weight housing are made from different materials. ### Claim 12 (depends on 10) The golf putter of claim 10, wherein the at least one weight is positioned inside the grip. ### Claim 13 (depends on 10) The golf putter of claim 10, wherein the at least one weight comprises a first weight and a second weight that are positioned in spaced-apart manner along the rod. ### Claim 14 (depends on 10) The golf putter of claim 10, wherein the rod has a first end and a second end, the weight system further including an end cap that has a bore for retaining the second end of the rod. ### Claim 15 (depends on 14) The golf putter of claim 14, wherein the weight system further includes a front cap that is threadably engaged in reverse with the first end of the rod, and which is positioned inside the putter head.
