ABSTRACT:
The putter fitting tool and stroke analyzer, called the "fitting tool", is to custom fit a golf club putter to match the composite physical stature and preferred stroking posture of an individual golfer. The tool's lie angle indicator marks when aligned between the eyes and putterhead sight or ball striking point, makes a 90 degree sight plane to the target called "sight plane". The putter is adjusted in manufacturing to match the sight plane specified by the tool. The preferred sight of the system is specially constructed to duplicate the desired sight plane once the tool is removed. This allows the golfer to putt from the same stroking position every time. The sight plane indicator marks or lie angle marks of the tool allow the golfer to try-a variety of sight planes to select the one most suited to his putting posture. The tool, as a stroke analyzer, magnifies deviations from the sight plane (the "sight plane" is the plane which intersects the clubhead, target, and golfer's eye) during the stroke. The tool has additional marks to indicate the adjustment the manufacturer uses to compensate for a putter sight location difference between the putter used for fitting and the putter the consumer is ordering. The fitting tool consists of the following: a rod with lie angle or sight plane indicator marks, a finger nut, a flange nut, and a loop clamp.
