Benefits of technology

The patent is for a golf club face wipe that is easy for golfers to use while playing. The wipe is attached to a shoe and can be used to remove any loose debris from the golf club face. The wipe has a triangular array of bristle posts that make it effective at wiping away debris from golf club faces of different loft angles and pitches. The result is a convenient, reliable tool for golfers to use while playing and a better game.

Problems solved by technology

That is to say, having loose debris clinging to the golf ball or the club face can interfere with the path of the ball and / or its rate of spin moving towards its target.
A different problem arises as the golfer addresses his ball before taking a shot.
Once the practice swings / strokes are completed and the golfer takes his stance ready to strike his golf ball, it is neither practical nor advantageous for the golfer to then interrupt his play and lose his concentration by having to wipe the club face (e.g., with his hand or on his pant leg) in order to remove the debris therefrom.
