Abstract
A golf club putter includes a clubhead body sufficiently weighted to define a center of gravity of the golf club. The putter includes a reverse tapered shaft, preferably a graphite or fiberglass composite, elongated along a central axis continuously tapering radially inwardly, from: a larger outside diameter adjacent a tip end attached to the clubhead body, to: a smaller outside diameter adjacent a grip end. The reverse tapered shaft comprises longitudinally oriented graphite or fiberglass fibers in an arrangement that enables shaft torsional distorting forces imposed at the grip end during putting to be imparted to the clubhead and a golf ball thereby.

A composite golf club putter, comprising:
- a clubhead body sufficiently weighted to define a center of gravity of the golf club;
- and
- a reverse tapered composite shaft elongated along a central axis continuously tapering radially inwardly, from:
- a larger outside diameter adjacent a tip end attached to the clubhead body, to:
- a smaller outside diameter adjacent a grip end;
- wherein the reverse tapered composite shaft comprises longitudinally oriented fibers in an arrangement that enables shaft torsional distorting forces imposed at the grip end during putting to be imparted to the clubhead and a golf ball thereby.
A process for manufacturing a graphite golf club putter configured to enable shaft torsional distorting forces imposed at the grip end during putting to be transmitted to the clubhead in such a way in that, depending on whether the clubhead strikes a golf ball, from the left or right, and at a toe or heel of the clubhead, a spin is imparted to golf ball.
A composite golf club putter, comprising:
- a clubhead body sufficiently weighted to define a center of gravity of the golf club;
- and
- a composite shaft elongated along a central axis between a tip end attached to the clubhead body and a grip end;
- wherein the composite shaft comprises longitudinally oriented fibers in an arrangement that enables shaft torsional distorting forces imposed at the grip end during putting to be imparted to the clubhead and a golf ball thereby.
