Putter with Optimized Center of Gravity and Balance

Abstract

The invention is a golf club Putter Head that allows an entire Putter Assembly (Head, Shaft, and Grip) to balance on the top of a standard golf ball, on the toe of the putter head, and on the heel of the putter head when placed on level ground. The Putter Head's ability to make a Putter Assembly balance on a golf ball, toe, and heel is driven by the precise location of the center of gravity and the specific geometry of the sole of the Putter Head. The ability for the Putter Head to allow a putter assembly to balance on the toe, heel, and on top of a golf ball is a visual demonstration of the center of gravity and balance of the putter assembly. The center of gravity and balance of the putter assembly is a common factor used by consumers for determining putter selection. Note: The benefits of the Putter Head are realized when the Putter Head is combined with a standard golf club putter shaft, and standard golf putter grip. The Putter Shaft and Putter Grip are not part of this patent submission.

1 . A golf club putter head, comprising of:
 (a) counterweights designed to adjust the center of gravity of said putter head to offset the weight of a golf club shaft and a golf club grip   (b) a feature on the bottom (“sole” in golf club terminology) of the putter head that locates a golf ball at a specific location for the purpose of being a balancing point   (c) surfaces or features on the ride and left side (“toe” and “heel” in golf club terminology) of the putter head for the purpose of being a balancing point whereby a golf putter with said putter head will balance on the sides (“toe” and “heel”) of the putter head, and on the bottom (“sole”) of the putter head when placed of top of a golf ball.
