Abstract: The present invention provides an improved golf putter for increasing alignment and feel in the putting stroke which includes a club head having a body and a forward ball striking surface and a club shaft having a handle, the shaft connected to and extending upwards from the body of the club head. A weight-receiving pocket is formed in an upper surface of the body of the club head and a weight mounting device such as a screw is mounted within the weight-receiving pocket in the body of the club head. At least one club head weight is removably mounted within the weight-receiving pocket of the body of the club head by engagement with the weight mounting device, the club head weight including club head alignment indicia on the top face of club head weight operative to provide visual alignment cues for ball striking by the forward ball striking surface.

Abstract: A golf club such as a mallet-style putter has a series of stepped concentric circular cavities formed in the top surface thereof at a generally transversely centered position offset rearwardly from the face of the club to afford improved alignment and optionally convert the putter for use as a training aid by supporting a carried ball on the cavities such that the carried ball will rock or be dislodged if the putting stroke accelerates or decelerates too quickly.
