Golf club having stabilized air flow structure

Abstract

A golf club includes a club member having a hand grip and a club head disposed on the ends, and having two inclined surfaces formed in the front portion, and a cusp formed between the inclined surfaces. The cusp is preferably a rounded cusp for allowing the air to smoothly flow through the inclined surfaces of the club member. The club member may include one or more air passages for allowing air to flow through the air passage and to reduce eddy currents in the rear portion of the club member. The club member may include one or more depressions for vibration reducing purposes.

I claim:  
     
         1 . A golf club comprising: 
 a club body including a first end having a hand grip provided thereon, and a second end having a club head provided thereon, and    said club body including a front portion having a first and a second inclined surfaces formed therein that define a cusp in front of said first and said second inclined surfaces, for facing toward air.    
     
     
         2 . The golf club according to  claim 1 , wherein said club body includes a rear portion, and at least one air passage formed therein and formed through said front portion and said rear portion of said club body, for allowing air to flow through said at least one air passage of said club body.  
     
     
         3 . The golf club according to  claim 1 , wherein said club body includes a rear portion, and at least one air passage formed therein and formed through said first inclined surface and said rear portion of said club body, for allowing air to flow through said at least one air passage of said club body.  
     
     
         4 . The golf club according to  claim 1 , wherein said club body includes a rear portion, and at least one air passage formed therein and formed through said second inclined surface and said rear portion of said club body, for allowing air to flow through said at least one air passage of said club body.  
     
     
         5 . The golf club according to  claim 1 , wherein said club body includes a rear portion having a flat surface formed therein and formed between said first and said second inclined surfaces thereof.  
     
     
         6 . The golf club according to  claim 1 , wherein said club body includes a first portion having at least one depression formed thereon that defines a reduced segment in said first portion of said club body, and that defines at least one shoulder between said reduced segment and said club body.  
     
     
         7 . The golf club according to  claim 6 , wherein said club body includes at least one air passage formed through said reduced segment.  
     
     
         8 . The golf club according to  claim 6 , wherein said reduced segment of said club body includes a first and a second inclined surfaces formed therein.  
     
     
         9 . The golf club according to  claim 8 , wherein said club body includes a rear portion, and includes at least one air passage formed therein and formed through said first inclined surface and said rear portion of said club body, for allowing air to flow through said at least one air passage of said club body.  
     
     
         10 . The golf club according to  claim 8 , wherein said club body includes a rear portion, and includes at least one air passage formed through said second inclined surface and said rear portion of said club body.
