Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to improvements in golf clubs.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Most amateur golfers can only make a few rounds a month, so it is said that they should try to hit the same way. Especially,
The grip connects the body of the golf club and the golf fur, and there is a problem that even if the grip is slightly misaligned, the swing form may be greatly changed.

On the other hand, since the image of the body movement that the golfer thinks with his head is different from the actual movement of the body, it is a secret to improve golf when the beginner grips the grip, to minimize the portion that he thinks with his head. I can say.

However, as shown in FIG. 7, the conventional grip 71 of the golf club 70 is constructed so that the diameter thereof becomes smaller toward the tip end, and there is no standard for gripping the grip properly. . Therefore, when the conventional golf club 70 is used by a beginner, the grip 7
There is a problem that the grip position of the grip 71 changes each time the user grips 1, and it does not easily improve.

Further, the basic of the grip 71 is to hold the left hand H with the palm (palm) and the right hand with fingers.
There is a problem that a beginner easily grips the grip 71 firmly, and as a result, the flexibility of the wrist is lost and the ball cannot be controlled.

That is, in the hand H, as shown in FIG. 8, when the finger is bent slightly, the index finger H24 has a larger diameter and the little finger H21 has a smaller diameter, so that the little finger H21.
Is not suitable for gripping a large diameter rod, and the index finger H2
4 is unsuitable for gripping a small-diameter rod, but in the conventional golf club 70, the index finger H24 grips the small-diameter portion of the grip 71 and the little finger H21 grips the large-diameter portion, which is ergonomically A contradiction arises when it sees. As a result, a beginner will be forced to grip the grip 71,
As a result, there is a problem in that the ball is difficult to control because the shoulder is overloaded.

There is also a problem that if the person is a weak person, even if he grips the grip, the force is not applied and the ball is sliced.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and the object of the present invention is to easily determine the grip position of the grip.
An object of the present invention is to provide a golf club that can surely grip the grip without exerting force on the shoulder.

[0009]

According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a golf club having a palm side recessed portion and a finger side recessed portion at a portion of a grip where a palm of a left hand and a finger contact, respectively, and these recessed portions are provided in the club. It is characterized in that it is configured to be parallel to the face surface.

A golf club according to a second aspect of the present invention is the golf club according to the first aspect, wherein the palm-side recessed portion is deeper than the finger-side recessed portion.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, in the golf club according to the first or second aspect, the palm-side concave portion has a bulge portion located on an extension line of the base of the little finger of the left hand. Located in front of the part that hits,
The feature is that the bulge on the extension line of the base of the little finger hits the non-recessed portion separated from the palm-side recessed portion when gripped with the left hand.

[0012]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION A golf club A comprises a head 1, a shaft 2 and a grip 3. In the grip, a palm-side recessed portion 4 is formed at a portion of the left hand H that is in contact with the flat (palm) H1, and a finger-side recessed portion 5 is provided at a portion of the left hand H that is contacted by a finger H2.

As shown in FIG. 1, the palm side recessed portion 4 is
It is located on the club face surface 6 side of the head 1, the finger side recessed portion 5 is located on the opposite side to the club face surface 6 side of the head 1, and the palm side recessed portion 4 and the finger side recessed portion 5 are It is configured to be parallel to the face surface 6. Further, the depth of the palm-side recessed portion 4 is deeper than the depth of the finger-side recessed portion 5 so that the grip 3 can be deeply gripped by the flat H1 of the left hand H.

The end portion of the palm-side recessed portion 4 near the base end of the grip 3 is located in front of the portion where the bulge portion H3 on the extension line of the base of the little finger H21 of the left hand H hits. When the grip 3 is gripped, the non-recessed portion 7 comes into contact with the bulge portion H3. And
The end of the finger-side recess 5 closer to the base end of the grip 3 has a grip 3 than the end of the palm-side recess 4 closer to the base 3 of the grip 3.
It is close to the base end of.

Of the finger side recessed portion 5, the little finger H21 and the ring finger H
22 and the middle finger H23 are contacted with three fingers at the same depth, and the index finger H24 is contacted with the little finger H21.
It is formed shallower than the part where three fingers touch.
The end of the palm-side recess 4 near the tip of the grip 3 is closer to the tip of the grip 3 than the end of the finger-side recess 5 near the tip of the grip 3.

The design of the depths of the palm-side recessed portion 4 and the finger-side recessed portion 5 can be appropriately changed.

The overall shape of the grip 3 without the palm-side recessed portion 4 and the finger-side recessed portion 5 is the same as that of the conventional grip, and the diameter becomes smaller toward the tip. No recess is formed on the surface of the grip 3 against which the right hand h hits.

Since the golf club A of the present invention is constructed as described above, it can greatly contribute to the improvement of golf for beginners as described below. Since the palm-side recess 4 and the finger-side recess 5 are formed in the grip 3, the grip position can be easily determined by using these recesses 4 and 5 as a guide.

Further, the palm side recessed portion 4 and the finger side recessed portion 5
Is configured to be parallel to the club face surface 6, so that the club face surface 6 can be made at a right angle to the ball by gripping the grip 3 with these recesses 4 and 5 as a reference, and at the moment of impact. The club face 6 can be applied to the ball at a right angle, and the ball will not bend. Furthermore, the grip 3 does not slip easily even in rainy weather, and the grip 3 can be gripped with certainty.

In addition, since no recess is provided in the grip 3 at the portion gripped by the right hand h, it is possible to avoid gripping the grip 3 deeply with the palm of the right hand h.
It is possible to avoid making the club control difficult by squeezing too much by hand or the balance with the left hand H being unbalanced. That is, in golf, it is good to let the left hand H function as a steering wheel of a car and the right hand h as an accelerator.
According to this myth, the muscles of the right hand h need to be able to move freely.
Unlike, it is better to hold your right hand h shallowly with your fingers (Fig. 5). Therefore, if the recess 3 is not provided in the grip 3 held by the right hand h, the grip 3 is held by the palm of the right hand h.
It is possible to avoid squeezing the grip deeply, and avoid squeezing the grip 3 with the hand too much, and avoiding difficulty in club control due to imbalance with the left hand H. as a result,
It is possible to faithfully execute the basic gripping method of the grip 3 "hold the left hand with a palm (palm) and the right hand with a finger".

Further, the palm side recessed portion 4 and the finger side recessed portion 5
Since the outer peripheral length of the grip 3 is shorter than the outer peripheral length of the conventional grip 3 by providing, the gripping force is small, and as a result, the golfer's shoulder does not receive force during golf swing, and You can easily perform delays, waist stabilization, easy wrist return, and concentration.

Further, since the palm side recessed portion 4 is deeper than the finger side recessed portion 5, the grip can be gripped deeply and firmly with the palm. That is, it is said that unstable wristwork can be suppressed if the flat hand H1 of the left hand H is firmly held deeply. However, by making the palm-side recessed portion 4 deeper than the finger-side recessed portion 5, the grip 3 is held by the left hand. It is possible to grip deeply and securely with H flat H1.

The end of the palm side recessed portion 4 near the base end of the grip 3 is located in front of the portion where the bulge H3 on the extension line of the base of the little finger H21 hits, and when the left hand H grips the grip 3. Since the bulge H3 is configured so as to hit the non-recessed portion 7 of the grip 3, the grip 3 can be securely gripped without applying force, and the suppleness of the wrist can be held, which facilitates club control. .

The grip 3 will be described in detail. The grip 3 is placed between the flat bulge of the left hand H and the base of the little finger H21 and hung on the first joint of the index finger H24 to grip the grip 3. Moreover, the grip 3 is held by the middle finger H23, the third finger H22, and the little finger H21, and the golf club A can be lightly lifted by the three fingers such as the flat H1 of the left hand H and the middle finger H23 without putting force on the forefinger H24. Is necessary (Fig. 6).

That is, when the golf club A is lifted only by the left hand H and the tip of the golf club A is moved, the golf club A can be well controlled by the little finger H21 of the left hand H and the bulge H3 of the little finger H21. A
It is a general idea that the grip at this time is the right way to grip. Therefore, by adopting a configuration in which the bulge H3 hits the non-dented portion 7 of the grip 3, the bulge H3 of the little finger H21 can be applied to the non-dented portion 7 of the grip 3, and the little finger H21 and the bulge H3 of the left hand H Is enough to lift the golf club. Moreover, the finger side depression 5
Since the grip 3 can be securely fixed by the ring finger H22 and the middle finger H23 of the left hand H, the thumb H25 and the index finger H24 of the left hand H can be simply attached to the grip 3, and as a result, the force is applied. The grip 3 can be securely gripped, the suppleness of the wrist can be maintained, and club control becomes easy.

In the above description, the golf club A intended for right-handed golfers has been described. However, when the golf club intended for left-handed golfers is targeted, the palm side depression is made depending on the grip of the left-handed golfer's hand. It goes without saying that the positions of the portion 4 and the finger-side recessed portion 5 change.

[0027]

As is apparent from the above description, according to the golf club of the first aspect, the grip position can be easily determined by using the recessed portion as a guide, so that a beginner's golf progress can be accelerated. . Also, by providing the palm-side recess and the finger-side recess, the outer circumference of the grip has been made shorter than the conventional one, so even if the grip force is small, it can be firmly gripped and the shoulder does not receive force. , Club control becomes easier.

According to the golf club of the second aspect, the grip can be grasped deeply and surely by the palm, so that the golf improvement of a beginner can be accelerated.

According to the golf club of claim 3, since the grip can be surely gripped without applying force, the flexibility of the wrist can be maintained, and the club control becomes easier.
