US Patent:

57725292, Jun 30, 1998

Filed:

Apr 28, 1997

Appl. No.:

8/845880

Inventors:

Thomas L. Ruth - Tucson AZ

International Classification:

A63B 5304

US Classification:

473327

Abstract:

A golf club having a hollow body clubhead with a metal mesh clubface and a metal mesh top-of-clubhead design. The design conforms to the shapes of a wood and iron and allows the club to be larger in size and weight than traditional golf club designs. The weight is controlled by modifying the amount of material forming the clubhead. The clubface hitting area for both the wood and iron is increased. The hollow-body allows air to flow through the clubhead, thus reduces air resistance and stabilizes the clubface during the club swing. The speed of the clubhead at impact increases, produces straighter flight of golf ball, and increase the distance the golf ball travels once hit. The design of the clubhead facilitates using a balance of different metals, by example, stainless steel, or other metal alloy. The design facilitates the force of the air to be directed against the inside bottom of the sole to provide better contact with a golf ball and reduce topped shots. The design has less surface contact with the golf ball, and hence there is less spin on the ball, and thus a less tendency to slice, or hook the golf ball.
