Abstract: A golf putter head is provided that includes a base element, the base element including a golf ball striking surface, at least one alignment rail, a lip, the lip extending the entire front width of the golf putter head and a top surface, the top surface located at the rear of the golf putter head, an upper plate the upper plate configured to be secured to the base element at the lip and the top surface, the upper plate includes at least one aperature and the upper plate completely covering the top surface. The upper plate further includes at least one indicator marking, the at least one indicator marking configured to align with the at least one alignment rail and the aperature is sized such that the at least one alignment rail may be viewed through the aperature.

Abstract: A golf club head includes a heel, a toe, a level golf ball striking face extending from the heel to the toe and including a top edge and a bottom edge, and a patterned striking surface covering the level golf ball striking face extending to the heel, the toe, the top and the bottom edge. The patterned striking surface includes a plurality of generally pyramidal shaped extensions protruding from the level golf ball striking face, each of the pyramidal shaped extensions including a generally square base, four side walls and a top surface, each of the side walls extending outwardly a height H and at an angle ?, the angle ? being approximately equal to 60 degrees, from the golf ball striking face and the base, the center of the top surface of any pyramidal shaped extensions being separated from the centers of the top surfaces of all neighboring pyramidal shaped extensions by a width W.

Abstract: A golf club head includes a golf ball striking face having a patterned striking surface covering the striking face. The patterned striking surface includes a plurality of generally pyramidal shapes extending outwardly a height H and at an angle ? from the face. The pyramidal shapes have a top surface, which is separated from the top surfaces of neighboring pyramidal shapes by a width W.

Abstract: A golf putter head is provided that includes an upper plate and a base plate. The base plate further includes a striking surface. The mass of the putter head is distributed such that the mass of the upper plate is greater than the mass of the base plate, thereby positioning the center of gravity of the putter head above a centerline of said striking surface and an equator of a golf ball when the golf ball is positioned proximate to the striking surface of the golf putter head.
