Benefits of technology

[0023] In accordance with the present invention, there is provided a putter head that is connected by two stems from the hosel at an angle which is positioned behind the putter head so that it reduces the twisting of the putter head upon the impact of a golf ball. Included in this connection of the two stems, there is a connecting piece of material which forms a triangle that acts as a proper distribution of weight and a vibration dampener. The shape resembles the letter “A”. The shape of the putter head can have a big or small flat face or can be elongated in the back.

Problems solved by technology

This produces the difficulty of play on many courses and requires a perfectly shaped shot dictated with the variables of speed and direction.
Professionals and amateur players agree that failure to hit squarely on the club face results in a miss hit or a poor hit and thus, it will not be hit straight.
One of the greatest problems with swinging the putter and to produce a square hit is to reduce the twisting or torque of the club head.
Unequal balance in the club head produce a difficult task to keep the club head square or perpendicular to the ball through the swing.
Dramatically, a putter that twists one millimeter in the course of the swing will result in a missed putt.
The result of many miss hit result in a vibration in the head of the putter which travel through the shaft and into the player's hands.
Not only is this uncomfortable, but the vibration prevents the association of a clean hit with a good stroke.
The problems with past inventions are that the center of gravity is not centered and behind the ball due to the fact there is one metal stem from the putter head to the shaft.
The club head is not stable because of the unequal weight distribution of weight of the putter head.
With these problems, the club has the characteristics of awkwardness and unstableness.
But still, there is no effective way to reduce the twisting effectively.
All of which have failed.
Finally, there are no solutions to vibration dampening in the field of golf, especially the putter.
This causes the perpetual twisting affect.
Conventional inventions that have a larger face do created a bigger spot for the club to hit the ball or the “sweet spot” but it will not cure a twisting club nor will it provide a more solid hit.

Embodiment Construction

[0031]FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a Putter Head 15 in accordance with the invention. The Putter Head 15 may be fabricated of metal, plastic, or any other suitable material. Moreover, the heel bracket 13, the toe bracket 12, and the vibration stabilizer 14 are located behind and above the putter's face 16. The top of the toe bracket 12 and the heel bracket 13 connect forming the bracket angle 11. This angle is a 90 degree triangle in the preferred embodiment, but in alternate embodiments it can be shaped as any form of angle deemed to be aesthetically or efficiently pleasing to the user. The toe bracket 12 and the heel bracket 13 may be attached to each other and also the Putter Head 15 by gluing, welding, or mechanically fastening in a manner well known to those skilled in the art. The Putter Head 15 may be fabricated from plastic, metal, wood, etc. and may be any shape. The toe bracket 12 and the heel bracket 13 along with the vibration stabilizer 14 function as a vibration dam...

Abstract

A putter head that is secured by two brackets and a vibration stabilizer connected in between which are all positioned behind the the putter head which reduces the twisting of the putter head upon the impact of a golf ball. The shape of the putter head can have a big or small flat face or can be elongated in the back.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present invention relates to a golf club and more particularly, the golf club putter. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] For nearly two centuries, the game of golf has been incorporated into the lives of millions of people all over the world. Ranging from the lands of England to the heartland of America. Golf has provided both a retreat for recreation and the thrill of a world class sport which is played by both amateurs and professionals. [0003] During the past decades, new technology has changes and improved both the ball and the clubs that the players use. Along with changes in ball structure and components, comes the vast enigma of club dynamics and components. Golf clubs range with different angles and effects with each having its own characteristics that improve various metrics such as swing curve and solid hitting. [0004] The club that is used when the player is relatively close to the hole and more particularly on the green is called the “pu...
