Benefits of technology

[0018]In one embodiment of the invention, the golf club head has an elastomeric insert that also corresponds to the location, shape and size of a given golfer or group of golfer's impact pattern for the particular golf club of a given loft and length. The elastomeric insert may be attached adjacent to the swing pad. The elastomeric insert desirably provides damping and is more effective than a typical insert, because the elastomeric

Any numerical value, however, inherently contains certain errors necessarily resulting from the standard deviation found in their respective testing measurements. Furthermore, when numerical ranges of varying scope are set forth herein, it is contemplated that any combination of these values inclusive of the recited values may be used.

[0040]FIGS. 1A, 1B and 1C are a series of diagrams showing the impact pattern for a 5 iron 1, 8 iron 2 and a pitching wedge 3. Diagrams 1, 2 and 3 are impact pattern data plots based on research conducted for various golfers of varying skill. Each point (representational points 4, 5 and 6) on diagrams 1, 2 and 3 indicate the impact location of the ball with the striking face of the golf club head for one golf swing with the specifi...

Abstract

A set of progressive golf clubs with an elliptical pad construction on the back of the striking face that corresponds to a location, shape and size of a predetermined golfer's impact pattern for the lofts and lengths of each of the golf clubs in the set. The elliptical pad progressively changes in location, shape and size from the long irons, to the mid irons, to the short irons, and to the wedges, based on the location, shape and size of a predetermined golfer's impact pattern for each of the long irons, mid irons, short irons, and wedges.
