srnomoarron' forming pm of Letters Patent No. 695,579, dated March 18, 1902. Application filed se al 24.1901. set-n1 No. 76,416. on) model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that-I, CHARLES ROOME PAR MELE, a citizen of the United States, residing at New York, in the county of New York and Stateof New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Golf-Clubs, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
This invention relates to golf-clubs; and the object of this invention is to give to the shaft a large amount of resiliency at a point close to the head of the device, so as to render it what is technically termed whippy, to add to its power and quick action in sending a golf-ball forward when in use, said resiliency also partly preventing the shock from being transmitted to the hands of the player. I attain these objects by the construction illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which-- Figure 1 is a longitudinal section of the head of a golf-club and the lower portion of its shaft with a springy-metal connection constructed in accordance with myinvention and adj ustably secured to said shaft. Fig. 2 represents two transverse sections of slightlydifierent forms of the metal rod which may be used for the springy-metal connection between the head and the shaft of the device. Fig. 3 represents, on a small scale, the lower half of a golf-club having its 'springy-metal connection adjustably secured to the shaft with a screw driven in the lower end of said shaft, said screw having its point impinging upon the metal connection. Fig. 4 represents, on a small scale, a complete golf-club having the same kind of fastening shown in Fig. 1, but with an adjustable springy-metal connection consisting of a series of strands of springy wire twisted orplaited together.
'In said drawings, A represents the head of the golf-club, which may be of any desired or wellknown-' form. It is provided with a shank a, which is strengthened with a ferrule Through the head and shank passes a light red B, of sp'ringy metal, to connect the head with the shaft 0. Said connection 13 fits tightly within a perforation made the whole length of said head and its shank and is provided with a head d, which is preferably square to prevent the rod B from rotat-' ing on its axis, as it fits into a corresponding cavity in the bottom of the head A, so that the head will not be twisted or rotated when striking the ball.
The'whippy rod or connection B can be made cylindrical-or polygonal, as shown in cross-sections in Fig. 2, of spring-steel or of other metal having a large amount of resiliency, or it can be made of strands of springy wire twisted or plaited together, as indicated at B in Fig. 4. The upper end of the connection B is received adjustably within the shaft 0, the lower end of which is provided with a chamber e in the axis thereof. Suitable means are used to adjustably clamp the connection B to the shaft 0. One of the simplest is that shown in "Fig. 3, in which a thumb-screw'is made to pass through the ferrule 9 and the wall of the internal chamber,
' and its end is made to impinge against the side of the rod B. In Figs. 1 and 4 the outer face of the ferrule G is screw-threaded, and its outer end is split lengthwise to constitute conical clampingfingers h, which are made to tightly embrace the rod B. Upon the ferrule G is mounted a traveling nut I, the rounded lower end of which has an internal conical surface which bears upon the conical sides of the clampingfingers h. By either of these clamping means the length of the free and uncovered surface of the connection B can be adjusted, and thereby the amount. of resilience obtained of the lower end of the shaft a few inches above the head can be regulated, and the same shaft can be used to carry different heads in succession.
Having now fully described my invention, I claim v 1. A golf-club consisting of a head, a shaft, a ferrule on the lower end of said shaft and a chamber within said lower end, a connection consisting of a springy-metal rod having its lower end secured to the head and its upper end received adj ustably within said chamber,
and a clamping device securing said connection to the shaft, substantially as described.
2. In a golf-club the combination of a. head, a shaft, a ferrule on the end of said shaft, said end having a chamber therein and a clamping device alongside thereof, with a springy-metal connection having its lower end secured to the head and its upper end adjustably received and clamped within said chamber, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I ailix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
