Claims25
An apparatus for recording an impact location between a golf ball and a solid face of a golf club comprising:
- a leather recording member sized-to-fit on the solid face of the golf club, wherein the leather recording member includes a first side and a second side opposite the first side;
- an adhesive layer disposed on the first side of the leather recording member for removably affixing the leather recording member to the solid face of the golf club;
- and
- a napped surface disposed on the second side of the leather recording member, wherein the napped surface is configured to record the impact location between the golf ball and the solid face of the golf club as an erasable mark in the napped surface.
An apparatus for recording an impact location between a golf ball and a face of a golf club comprising:
- a leather recording member sized-to-fit on the face of the golf club, wherein the leather recording member includes a first side and a second side opposite the first side;
- an adhesive layer disposed on the first side of the leather recording member to affix the leather recording member to the face of the golf club;
- a barrier layer disposed between the adhesive layer and the first side of the leather recording member, wherein the barrier layer is configured to inhibit the migration of oil from the leather recording member to the adhesive layer;
- and
- a napped surface disposed on the second side of the leather recording member, wherein the napped surface is configured to record the impact location between the golf ball and the face of the golf club.
An apparatus for recording an impact location between a golf ball and a face of a golf club comprising:
- a leather recording member sized-to-fit on the face of the golf club, wherein the leather recording member includes a first side and a second side opposite the first side, and further wherein the leather recording member has a thickness in the range of 0.4 millimeters to 0.9 millimeters;
- an adhesive layer disposed on the first side of the leather recording member to affix the leather recording member to the face of the golf club;
- and
- a napped surface disposed on the second side of the leather recording member, wherein the napped surface is configured to record the impact location between the golf ball and the face of the golf club.
An apparatus for recording an impact location between a golf ball and a face of a golf club comprising:
- a leather recording member sized-to-fit on the face of the golf club, wherein the leather recording member includes a first side and a second side opposite the first side, and further wherein the leather recording member has an oil content in the range of 8 percent to 12 percent on the weight of the leather;
- an adhesive layer disposed on the first side of the leather recording member to affix the leather recording member to the face of the golf club;
- and
- a napped surface disposed on the second side of the leather recording member, wherein the napped surface is configured to record the impact location between the golf ball and the face of the golf club.
