  • Patent number: 7635309
    Abstract: An improved grip arrangement for a golf club. The grip arrangement comprises a grip extension that extends substantially orthogonally from the shaft of the club and oriented to be substantially parallel to the club face. The grip extension allows a golfer to hold the golf club with the wrist of the dominant hand locked. The grip arrangement further comprises a shaft grip that can be used by the subordinate hand to grip the shaft of the club. The locked wrist of the dominant hand provides the golfer with more consistent and accurate shots. The improved grip arrangement is particularly well suited to use with a putter.
