Abstract
A putter type golf club formed of a club head body having a heel, toe, upper surface, bottom and frontal ball striking face. The striking face is characterized by a progressively increasing loft angle on the striking face toward the heel.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A putter type golf club head having a heel, toe, upper surface, bottom and frontal ball striking face; said striking face characterized by a progressively increasing loft angle toward said heel.
2 . The putter type golf club head of claim 1 wherein said progressively increasing loft angle starts proximate a midpoint on said face between said toe and said heel.
3 . The putter type golf club head of claim 1 wherein said increasing loft is further defined as being formed by a progressively decreasing radius of the club face in a lateral direction toward said heel.
4 . The putter type golf club head of claim 3 wherein said radius is defined as a parabolic curve.
5 . The putter type golf club head of claim 1 wherein said increasing loft angle is greater adjacent said upper surface.
6 . The putter type golf club head of claim 1 wherein the increasing loft angle begins from proximate a midpoint on said striking face toward said heel.
7 . A putter type golf club formed of a club head body having a heel, toe, upper surface, bottom and frontal ball striking face having a dual radius configuration including a first curvature in a heel to toe direction; and a second radius between said bottom and said upper surface said frontal ball striking face characterized by a portion of said striking face including a progressively increasing loft angle from proximate a midpoint on said striking face toward said heel and an increasing loft angle from said bottom toward said upper surface.
8 . A putter type golf club head characterized by a frontal ball striking face with a progressively increasing loft angle between a first point on said face to a second point on said face displaced from said first point.
9 . The putter type golf club head of claim 8 further defined as having a heel and a toe; said loft angle increasing toward said heel.
10 . The putter type golf club head of claim 8 wherein said frontal ball striking face is flat.
11 . The putter type golf club head of claim 8 wherein the loft angle increase is defined by a parabolic curve.Cited by (0)
