Description
' J. J. RAIDEL GOLF CLUB m. W2. gg m Filed Feb. 21, 1927 INVENTOR GOLF CLUB.
Application filed February 21, 1927.
This invention relates to improvements in golf-clubs; and the invention has reference more particularly to a novel construction of golf-club by means of which the golf ball (til lift
may be addressed from either left or right, as circumstances may make desirable. and especially by means of which the golf-ball may be more advantageously addressed when occupying bad or obstructed lies.
The invention has for its principal object to provide a novel construction of golf-club, which may be made of any suitable material, either metal, Wood or the like, and which is so constructed as to provide oppositely di rectcd operative striking faces of desired. pitch, inclination or other contour, so that the same may be employed in either left or right hand swings, and in other ways best adapted to the address of a ball in play which may occupy unusual positions or awkard l ies.
Other objects of this invention, not at this time more particularly enumerated, will be clearly understood from the following detailed description of the same.
The invention is clearly illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a front elevation of one form of golf-club made according to and embody ing; the principles of the present invention; and Figure 2 is a side view of the same, with the handle shaft broken away.
Figure 3 is a perspective view of a moditied form of my novel golf-club, embodying however, the general principles of my instant invention, the handle shaft also being broken away in this view.
@imilar characters of reference are employed in all of the hereinabove described views, to indicate corresponding parts.
Referring now to said drawings, the reference character 5 indicates the soclreted shank of thegolf-club head, from the lower extremity of which projects outwardly the club-head or body. In my instant invention the club-head or body is on the general order of a midiron. or a niblick, but consists in a main body 6 provided with an upper or top apex portion 7 from which extends oppositely presented diverging faces 8 and 9, of any desired angle of inclination or pitch Serial Flo. 169,?39.
relative to the perpendicular. The respective faces 8 and 9 may be constructed to provide either slightly concave surfaces, as shown in Figure 1, or flat plane surfaces as shown in Figure 3. The main body 6 of the club-head may be solid intermediate the respective face portions 8 and 9, as shown in Figure 1, es iiecially i f it is desired to provide a club of maximum weight; or the main body 6 may be cut away atits under side intermediate the face portions 8 anl 9, as indicated at 10 in Figure 3, especially if it is desired to provide a club of minimum weight.
ittached to the socluiatcd shank 5 of the golf-club head, in any usual or suitable manner, is the customary handle-shaft 11, provided at its upper free end with the handgrip portion 12, all as indicated in Figure 1.
It will. be apparent that the player in making use of the novel club made according to the instant invention, may, by addressing the ball with a swing of the club from the players ri ht, utilize the face 8 on the players left. It may often happen, however, that the lie of the ball is such that to address the latter by a swing of the club from the players right is awkward, or inconvenient, by reason of ohstriictions presented by the contour of the ground to club movements to in such direction, while, on the other hand, an approach to or address of the ball from the players left, by swinging the club from left to right, is much easier or more convenient. In the latter case operation of the club inthe latter manner is easily permissible, and the face 9 on the players right may then be utilized to such end. There are also other lies of the ball possible whereby ease of address may be attained by the selective use of either the one striking face or the other of the instant club. If the club-head faces are made slightly concave, as shown in Figure 1, niblick or lofting shots from either the left or right may be most conveniently performed with the novel construction of club embodying my instant invention.
lit will be understood that modifications of the shape or contours of the novel clubtoo head within the scope of this invention. and other than. those already above mentioned may be made without departing from the scope of said invention as defined in the appended claim.
Having thusdescribed my present invention, I claim A golf-club comprising an open inverted V-shaped member providing oppositely presented fiat inclined striking faces symmetrical to the vertical axis of said member and of equal angular pitch, and a soeketed handle 10 shank receiving portion integrally connected with and extending upwardly from one end of said member.
In testimony, that I claim the invention set forth above I have hereunto set my ham-l 15 this 10th day of February, 1927.
JOHN J. RADEL.
