Abstract

PURPOSE:To increase the flying distance of ball by forming a protuberance protruding approximately horizontally in the direction of a player from the upper side of the head when holding it and by mounting part or the whole of the neck of a club connecting with the shaft on this protuberance. CONSTITUTION:On the head 11 of A golf club 10 the upper side portion of the club head is protruded in the direction of a player when he holds it to form a protuberance 13. On this protuberance a neck portion 14 is mounted. Then on this neck portion 14 a shaft 16 is mounted through a socket 15. Part of the neck portion 14 of the club 10 is located on the protuberance 13 while the neck portion 14 is located on the end of this protuberance 13. The whole body of the head 11 is formed in a hollow and consistent shape with meal like a stainless steel. In this club 10, a distance between the center of gravity G of the head 11 and the central line C of the shaft 16 can be made large. Therefore when hitting the ball with the club, larger flying distance of the ball can be obtained by effectively using the torque around the central line of the shaft.

PRIOR ART AND PRIOR ART PROBLEMS OF THE INVENTION Obtaining a large flight distance is an important issue for wood clubs, and for this purpose various factors have been taken into consideration. The present invention focuses on the fact that the moment of inertia around the center line of the shaft is important as one of its elements.

That is, when hitting a ball, the head is not only swung around the player's body, but also rotated around the shaft center line, and this rotational force also accelerates the ball. Therefore, in order for this rotational force to act more strongly, the moment of inertia around the shaft centerline must be increased, as shown in Figure 2, the distance between the center of gravity g of the club head that hits the ball and the centerline C of the shaft. It is desirable to increase d.

In this case, the horizontal and longitudinal lengths of the head must be kept at a constant ratio in order to ensure the directional stability of the ball, resulting in the overall size of the head having to be increased. In this case, no matter what material and structure are chosen, the weight of the helad will be excessive and it will be impractical.

Means for Solving the Problems The present invention forms a protrusion that protrudes substantially horizontally from the upper surface side portion of the head in a direction toward the player when held,
This golf club is characterized by having a part or all of the neck portion connected to the shaft located in this protruding portion.

すなわち、本発明のクラブは、ネック部をヘッドの側方

Effects According to the structure of the present invention, the structure of the head other than the neck portion is exactly the same as the conventional head, so the weight of the head, the directional stability of the ball, the balance, etc. are the same as the conventional head. Only the distance between the center of gravity and the centerline of the shaft increases.
