Abstract: A novel method for attaching a hosel to a putter head is disclosed. A hosel having a hole is inserted into a putter head cavity and the cavity and hole in the hosel are filled with a fixative configured to permanently attach the hosel shaft to the putter head.

Abstract: A putter fitting method and system comprising a laser configured to deflect a laser beam off of a putter at address and strike a scoring map in such a way so as to indicate the any error's in a golfer's aim. The method and system may further comprise determining physical alterations to the golfer's putter in order to correct the aim errors. Such changes may be to the hosels (neck), hosel offset, hosel types, head shape, loft, line combination, length or the like. These changes may be suggested automatically, for example, by a computer program, based on the location of the laser strike, or by a fitting professional.

Abstract: A putter-fitting system that allows for quick and easy alteration of various aspects of the putter including, but not limited to, weighting, lie angle, and hosel style is described. Also described are a cam-based putter face release mechanism, a cam-based hosel release mechanism and/or an interchangeable striking surface insert.

Abstract: The present invention provides a putter-fitting template that enables fitters to scribe various lines onto test putters. The template fits securely and temporarily onto the putter head and includes line guides for drawing the scribe lines onto the putter. The invention also provides a method for fitting a golfer with a custom-fit putter.
