Abstract

A method of manufacturing a composite putter head includes placing an initial pre-preg layer in first direction. The method also includes stacking an additional pre-preg layer on the initial pre-preg layer in a second direction. The method further includes repeating the placing and stacking for a plurality of directions to form a stack assembly block. The method still further includes heat curing the stack assembly block to provide a heat cured stack assembly block. The method also includes machining the heat cured stack assembly block into a selected putter head shape. The method further includes decorating the selected putter head shape after the machining.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method of manufacturing a composite putter head, comprising:
 placing an initial pre-preg layer in first direction;   stacking an additional pre-preg layer on the initial pre-preg layer in a second direction;   repeating the placing and stacking for a plurality of directions to form a stack assembly block;   heat curing the stack assembly block to provide a heat cured stack assembly block;   machining the heat cured stack assembly block into a selected putter head shape; and   decorating the selected putter head shape after the machining.   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1 , in which the initial pre-preg layer and the additional pre-preg layer are comprised of carbon fiber. 
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 1 , in which the initial pre-preg layer and the additional pre-preg layer are comprised of quartz. 
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising applying a putter head face to the composite putter head. 
     
     
         5 . The method of  claim 4 , further comprising forming the putter head face from isotropic materials. 
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising milling holes corresponding to sole weights in a sole of the composite putter head. 
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 6 , in which the milling holes for the sole weights are peripherally located on the composite putter head. 
     
     
         8 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising installing sole weights into a sole of the composite putter head. 
     
     
         9 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising selecting the selected putter head shape from a blade, a half-mallet, and a mallet. 
     
     
         10 . The method of  claim 1 , in which decorating the selected putter head shape comprises adding an alignment aid. 
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 10 , in which the alignment aid comprises colored, concentric circles. 
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 10 , in which the alignment aid comprises a line. 
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising mounting a putter shaft to a hosel of the composite putter head.
