Abstract: A putter club head is provided with an elongate cavity communicating to the exterior through a rectangular opening in the striking face thereof spaced above the club head lower surface so that the portion of the club head between the cavity opening and the lower surface forms a lower shielding structure to deflect any plant growth in the path of a putting stroke. A conforming cylindrical roller is then mounted for rotation within the cavity to provide a ball striking surface on its periphery generally elevated above the bottom surface to a height corresponding to the elevation of the contact periphery of a golf ball resting thereon. In this manner little or no spin is imparted to the ball when struck by the roller since the lower club surface shields the roller from any moments imparted by the growth covering the green.

Abstract: A putter club head is provided with an elongate cavity communicating to the exterior through a rectangular opening in the striking face thereof spaced above the club head lower surface that forms a lower shielding structure to deflect any growth in the course of a putting stroke. A conforming tubular segment is then mounted for rotation within the cavity to expose a portion of its peripheral surface beyond the plane of the striking face generally elevated above the bottom surface to a height corresponding to the elevation of the contact periphery of a golf ball resting thereon. In this manner little or no spin is imparted to the ball when struck by the roller since the lower club surface shields the roller from any moments imparted by the growth covering the green.

Abstract: In a sailing catamaran provided with a forwardly directed pivoted arm carrying at the free end a third pontoon into alignment in front of either of the catamaran hulls a triangular truss assembly is provided bridging across the hulls. The apex of the truss assembly is then engaged to a point along the length of a mast which has its foot or base resting on the arm. A forestay stretched between the mast and the end of the arm supports a headsail while a mainsail is mounted on the mast.
