Abstract
The "Bird's Eye" is a putter designed to help align your club in the proper shooting position. A leveling device on the top of the putter head determines the proper position.
By adjusting the club inward or outward the leveler indicates the proper club position.
By having your club properly aligned you increase your odds of making the putt.
A golf putter with a leveling device designed to increase shot accuracy.
By adjusting the club inward or outward the leveler indicates the proper club position.
By having your club properly aligned you increase your odds of making the putt.
A golf putter with a leveling device designed to increase shot accuracy.
Description
Sometimes on the heads of golf clubs, in particular putters, lines are used to assist the golfer in aligning his/her putter head with the ball and the direction in which he/she intends the ball to travel.
In this invention a device ( The Bird's Eye Target Level ) is mounted on or in the putter head and will indicate whether or not the putter head is level. This will increase the ability of control the golfer has over his/her putter.
It is common for golfers to miss putts, sometimes as a result of tilting the head of the putter through impact with the ball. When tilting the putter head inward it can result in a pulling motion and the ball travels off the chosen line and between the golfer and the intended target. When tilting the putter head outward it can result in a pushing motion and the ball travels off the chosen line away from the golfer and the intended target.
Without a device to indicate these mistakes a golfer may not recognize them and possibly repeat them throughout his/her game, adding strokes to his/her score total.
In drawings which illustrate embodiments of this invention Figure 1 shows the top view of the shell component (1) with target ring (2). Figure 2 shows the side view of the shell (1) with target ring (2). Figure 3 is the top view of the core component (3) with target circle (4). Figure 4 is a side view of the core component (3) with target circle (4) and counter balance (5).
Figure 5 shows the top view of the device installed on an example putter head (the device is indicating the head of the putter is level). Figure 6 shows the rear side view of Figure 5 with liquid surface line (6). Figure 7 again shows the top view of the putter with the device indicating the putter head is level. Figure 8 shows the top view of the putter with the device indicating the putter head is tilted in an outward position. Figure 9 shows the top view of the putter head with the device indicating the putter head is tilted in an inward position.

Claims (3)
1. A device to be located on or in the head of a golf putter used as a visual aide to determine whether or not the putter head is level and is comprised of the following three main components: a balanced buoyant core, a volume of liquid, and an outer shell in which to contain the liquid and core.
2. A device as defined in claim (1) in which a target on the core aligns with a target on the shell while the head of the putter is level.
3. A device as defined in claim (1) or claim (2) in which a target on the shell may appear as a boundaried area.
