    Abstract: A golf club useful as a putter and including an elongate club shaft terminating at a lower end in a coupling structure for attachment to a cooperating coupling carried by an upper end of a stub shaft of any of a family of selectable putter heads.

The disc is slideably received between spaced parallel plates of the yoke.
