Abstract
A golf putter head that can improve the golfer's ability by providing function features that create a consistent setup of putter head position in relation to the golf ball and golfer position in relation to the putter. Once the setup is consistent, further increase in the consistency of the golfer's stroke can be attained through building muscle memory. From the putter stroke, the hitting face can impart an accurate forward motion to the golf ball upon being stricken by the putter head. The putter can provide tactile feedback to the golfer during the golf swing while imparting a forward roll to the golf ball upon striking and can simplify the visual alignment of the putter head to the golf ball.
Claims20
A putter head comprising:
- a striking portion having at least one generally flat striking surface;
- and
- a stabilizing portion connected to the striking portion and including a plurality of stabilizing protrusions configured such that positioning the putter head on a generally flat surface places each of the stabilizing protrusions in contact with the surface.
A putter head comprising:
- a body,
- a hitting face formed on an outer surface of the body;
- a first contact point protruding from the body;
- and
- a second contact point protruding from the body and spaced apart from the first contact point;
- wherein upright placement of the putter head on a generally flat surface positions the first contact point and the second contact point in physical contact with the surface.
A putter head comprising:
- a stabilizing base portion including:
- a first sight line portion formed in the stabilizing base portion,
- a second sight line portion formed in the stabilizing base portion parallel to the first sight line portion;
- a first contact protrusion extending from the first sight line portion,
- a second contact protrusion extending form the first sight line portion, spaced apart from the first contact protrusion,
- a third contact protrusion extending from the second sight line portion,
- a fourth contact protrusion extending form the second sight line portion, spaced apart from the third contact protrusion;
- and
- a striking head portion connected to the stabilizing base portion, the striking head portion including:
- a negative-lofted hitting face configured to impart a forward rolling motion on a golf ball struck by the hitting face, and
- a fifth contact protrusion formed beneath the angled hitting face,
- wherein upright placement of the putter head on a generally flat surface places the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth contact protrusions in physical contact with the surface.
