Benefits of technology

[0015]An advantage with the present invention is that the golfer will be able to handle each golf club in the golf set using the golfer's natural swing motion when hitting a golf ball.
[0016]Another advantage with the present invention is that the golfer does not need to adjust the swing motion to the length of each golf club in a set, as is the case with prior art equipment.

Problems solved by technology

Golf is a very complex game, in which two rounds of golf on the same golf course will not be identical no matter how many rounds of golf are played, but there are some fundamental conditions that always applies.
A problem with prior art techniques is that although some design parameters are considered, others parameters that affect the ability to hit the ball repeatedly are not considered.

Embodiment Construction

[0029]The fundamental principal of the invention relates to how the human body affects the ability to play golf. In a closer analysis of the forces applied to the human body when swinging a golf club, the muscles may be divided into large muscle groups and small muscle groups. The large muscle groups perform the heavy work and the small muscle groups handle the fine details. They work together during a golf stroke to create a homogenous motion. In order for a golf club to be good, it needs to be in tune with both large and small muscle groups.

[0030]The tuning of the muscle groups in the prior art methods, as described above, in order to design or adapt golf clubs will not be true for all the golf clubs in a set. Every now and then, a golf club is found, e.g. an iron 7, that is very well adapted to a specific golfer, but a gradually deteriorating adaptation is present for the longer and shorter clubs in the set.

[0031]The theoretical background to the concept of the invention is to se...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a set of at least three golf clubs having different club length Lk. The golf clubs 14; 20 comprises a shaft 21 with an upper end and a lower end, a grip section 22 on the upper end of the shaft, and a head 23; 30; 40 with a ball-striking surface mounted on the lower end of the shaft. The club length Lk of each golf club decreasing through the set and a value 61, 65, 75; 62, 66, 76; 63, 67, 77; 64, 68; 78 of at least one torsional moment PCF; HCF; ICF; GCF for each of the at least three golf clubs when swung by a golfer differs from each other. A linear function 71, 72, 73, 74 of club length Lk is based on the values of at least one torsional moment.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention relates to a set of golf clubs, comprising at least three golf clubs of different length.BACKGROUND[0002]Golf is a very complex game, in which two rounds of golf on the same golf course will not be identical no matter how many rounds of golf are played, but there are some fundamental conditions that always applies.[0003]The possible length a ball will fly is controlled by the ball speed, the launch angle, and the spin generated on the ball when hit by the golf club (i.e. at impact). The ball is in turn affected by the speed of the club and the kinetic energy transfer that occur between the golf club and the ball. It means that with the same type of hit on the ball, more speed of the club is needed to transport the ball a longer distance and less speed on the club is needed to transport the ball a shorter distance. If a golfer should be able to hit a ball as far as possible, a golf club that generates maximum speed with maintained accuracy t...
