Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To allow even an amateur golfer to easily conform the center of gravity of a head to the center of a ball, and extend the range of the putted ball by setting the length of a hosel to a prescribed value or more in a putter head having the shaft installing hosel continuously provided on a neck. SOLUTION: A neck 3 is extended upward from a head body 1 having a face 2 for hitting a ball, and a shaft installing hosel 4 is continuously formed on the neck 3, and a shaft is inserted and fixed to the insert hole 4A of the hosel 4. The length (m) of the hosel 4 is set to 25mm or more, larger than compared with the past. Thus, in the state where a ball is put on green, the sole of the putter head is addressed in contact with the lawn, the center-of- gravity height of the head is conformed to or slightly higher than the height to the center of the ball. The ball more easily receives overspin when the center of the head is slightly higher than the center of the ball, and the rolling and range of the ball can be enhanced.

2. Description of the Related Art In a conventional putter head, as shown in FIG. 2, a neck 102 extends upward from a head body 101 having a face 100 for hitting a ball, and a hosel 103 for mounting a shaft is connected to the neck 102. Is made. Further, unlike other clubs, the putter is a club that does not vibrate strongly or hit the ball, so there is also a club in which a hole is made in the head body 101 and a shaft is directly inserted and fixed in this hole. Further neck 10
There is also one in which the hosel 103 is directly provided on the head main body 101 without the number 2. The thickness of the face 100 (face thickness, height from the sole) is 23 to 28 mm, the height of the center of gravity is generally about 11.5 to 14 mm, and the height of the center of gravity is up to the center of the ball. Lower than the height (21.35 mm).

In all of the conventional putters, when the sole of the head is brought into contact with the turf to address the ball on the green, the center of gravity of the head is lower than the center of the ball. . The ball rolls well when it is hit with its center and the center of gravity of the head almost aligned on a horizontal straight line. That is, the ball extends when the center of gravity of the head and the center of the ball match. In order to match the center of the ball with the center of gravity of the head, it is necessary to hit the head with a certain distance above the green grass (with a conventional putter, it can be lifted by 7 to 10 mm). If you are a professional golfer, you can repeat it with a high probability because you are skilled,
It is extremely difficult for general amateur golfers,
Most amateur putting puts the center of gravity of the head at a position lower than the center of the ball, resulting in backspin on the ball, poor rolling of the ball, and no elongation of the ball.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, a so-called L-shaped type putter head is shown, but it is a pin type (type of FIG. 2).
It can also be applied to putter heads such as and the mallet type. Further, it is preferable that the height of the center of gravity of the head is equal to or slightly higher than the height to the center of the ball when the ball is placed on the green and the sole of the putter head is brought into contact with the turf for addressing. When the center of gravity of the head is higher than the center of the ball, the upper limit is about 5 mm. Therefore, the upper limit of the length m of the hosel is naturally determined by the relationship between the center height of the ball and the height of the center of gravity of the head 1. When the center of gravity of the head is higher than the center of the ball, overspin tends to be applied to the ball, causing the ball to roll,
Good growth.

As described above, according to the present invention, since the length of the hosel is set to 25 mm or more, the center of gravity of the head becomes high, and the center of gravity of the head and the center of the ball can be easily aligned at the time of patenting. It can give stretch to the struck ball.
