  • Patent number: 8444510
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for determining club parameters for at least one golf club, belonging to a set of golf clubs for a specific golfer, having arbitrary club length Lk,n. The method comprises: selecting club length of a first reference golf club and a second reference club; varying at least one club parameter belong to the group: club weight, club head weight, CG position and weight distribution of the first reference golf club and the second reference golf club; selecting a club parameter value for each selected club parameter. At least one torsional moment PCF, ICF, HCF, GCF is calculated and a relationship is determined as a function of club length. A club length for a first golf club belonging to the set of golf clubs is selected and club parameters for the first golf club is determined based on each determined relationship.

  • Patent number: 8444501
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a set of at least three golf clubs having different club length Lk. The golf clubs 14; 20 comprises a shaft 21 with an upper end and a lower end, a grip section 22 on the upper end of the shaft, and a head 23; 30; 40 with a ball-striking surface mounted on the lower end of the shaft. The club length Lk of each golf club decreasing through the set and a value 61, 65, 75; 62, 66, 76; 63,67,77; 64, 68; 78 of at least one torsional moment PCF; HCF; ICF; GCF for each of the at least three golf clubs when swung by a golfer differs from each other. A linear function 71, 72, 73, 74 of club length Lk is based on the values of at least one torsional moment.
