Description

[Detailed description of the invention] "Field of industrial application" The present invention relates to a grip for a golf club, and in particular to a grip for a golf club that is most suitable as a grip for a putter, and in which the tip of the grip is tilted toward the player to make it easier to grip. .

``Prior Art'' In golf, the grip of a golf club is very important. This grip can be used not only for irons and wood clubs, but also for
The same applies to putters used on the green.

When using a putter, since the shaft length of the putter is short and there is no need to hit the ball over long distances, athletes generally hold both arms to their sides, hold the putter at a nearly vertical angle, and adjust the strength and direction of the putter. The ball is hit by the pendulum motion of the putter head. At this time, the angle between the putter shaft and the hand was not in a straight line, so the ball was hit by holding both shoulders over the ball or by holding the grip in an unnatural manner. .

Incidentally, in golf, it is not allowed to bend the shaft, so a putter whose shaft is bent so that the grip matches the angle of the hand cannot be used in golf.

Therefore, it has been proposed to provide an angle at the end of the grip without bending the shaft.

FIG. 4 is a sectional view of a conventional grip for a golf club, in which reference numeral 10 denotes the grip, 11
12 is a grip rubber, and 12 is a shaft.

As is clear from FIG. 4, in this conventional grip for a golf club, the grip 10 is composed of a straight shaft 12 and grip rubber 11 similar to those of a general club, and the shape of the grip rubber 11 is changed to make it easier to grip. It is done like this. That is, the player side end 11a of the grip rubber 11 is formed thicker, and the head side end 11b is formed thinner.
The end 10a of the grip 10 is tilted toward the player.

``Problems to be Solved by the Invention'' A conventional grip for a golf club as shown in FIG. Because of what is being done, how much?
Even if the player side end 11a of the grip rubber 11 is made thicker and the head side end 11b is made thinner, the straight shaft 12 exists in the middle, so the grip 1
0 end 10a cannot be sufficiently tilted toward the player.

Further, since the thickness of the grip rubber 11 relative to the shaft 12 made of metal or the like varies depending on the location, especially near the head side end 11b, the player feels uncomfortable when gripping the grip.

"Means and effects for solving the problems" The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and provides a novel golf club grip.
The shaft is cut diagonally, the cut slope is used as the head side, and the end of the grip is tilted toward the player using the cut slope.

First, wood, cork, synthetic resin, or the like is inserted into the end of the shaft, and the end of the shaft is cut diagonally.
Then, cover the grip rubber with the cut slope as the head side. This grip rubber is
The head side end located on the cutting slope is formed with a thin and constant thickness, and the player side end is formed with a thick wall.

In addition, the present invention uses both the shaft having the cutting slope and the grip rubber to tilt the end of the grip toward the player, and to prevent the player from feeling uncomfortable when gripping the grip. It is something.

"Example" Next, an example of the golf club grip according to the present invention will be described.

is the putter, 2 is the grip, 3 is the grip rubber, 4
is a shaft, and 5 is a filler.

The grip 2 is composed of a shaft 4 into which a filler 5 is inserted and grip rubber 3.

A cutting slope 6 is provided at the end of the shaft 4 on the grip side.
is formed. As shown in FIG.
It is formed by cutting the end of the shaft 4 into which the putter is inserted diagonally, and this cutting slope 6 is arranged to be on the head side of the putter, in other words, on the side opposite to the player. Further, a head 7 is attached to the other end of the shaft 4 as shown in FIG.

The grip rubber 3 is designed to have a thick player side end 3a and a thin head side end 3b.

The player side end 3a is the part where the second joints of the four fingers (excluding the thumb) usually come into contact when the player grips the grip 2, and has an easy-to-grip shape that fits the four fingers, similar to conventional grips. It is said that

The head side end portion 3b is formed thinly in the portion located above the cutting slope 6, and this head side end portion 3b has an approximately constant thickness at each location.
As a result, when the athlete grasps grip 2,
This eliminates the difference in elasticity depending on where you grip it, so that it does not cause discomfort to competitors.

The grip rubber 3 is attached to the shaft 4 with double-sided tape 8 or the like, and an air vent hole 9 is provided at the end of the grip rubber 3.

These are the shaft 4 forming the cutting slope 6, the thick player side end 3a, and the thin head side end 3.
The grip rubber 3 with b
The end portion 2a of the grip can be tilted sufficiently toward the player, and the player does not feel uncomfortable when holding the grip.

``Effects of the invention'' As stated above, the present invention uses both the shaft with a cutting slope and the deformed grip rubber to tilt the end of the grip sufficiently towards the athlete, so that the athlete cannot force the grip. without awkward postures or unnatural grips, and without the competitors feeling uncomfortable.
The pendulum motion of the putter head allows you to hit the ball exactly as you want.
