  • Publication number: 20020151376
    Abstract: A putter is disclosed in which the heel of the head is heavier than the toe to automatically hold the putting face at a right angle to the target line at address, thereby eliminating the effort normally needed by the golfer to hold the toe in the forward position when striking a golf ball. Thus, all of the golfer's effort and attention can be devoted to pulling the putter head straight back (back swing) and straight forward to strike the ball precisely and directionally on line. This improved and surprising result is accomplished by mounting a straight shaft off center in the head toward the toe, or by controlling the balance of the head with respect to the position of the shaft through use of design features or material variations. The successful accomplishment of this important feature is readily shown if the toe of the putter head points up when the shaft is placed on a flat smooth table with the head suspended over the edge of the table.
