AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Thinner and stiffer materials used in golf club construction lead to unwanted vibrations across the golf club head, resulting in inconsistent or unpleasant vibrational responses during ball impact.
Method used
Incorporating pliant springs within the hollow body of the golf club head to contact the interior surfaces, specifically the strike face, to dampen vibrations and adjust the vibrational response.
Benefits of technology
The pliant springs effectively reduce the amplitude and duration of vibrations, leading to a more consistent and desirable vibrational response across the club head, enhancing the overall performance and feel of the golf club.
