ABSTRACT:
A golf club including a golf club head, a hosel, a ferrule, and a shaft. The hosel defines a cavity having an opening at an upper end of the hosel and an annular recess at an outer surface of the hosel. The ferrule defines an axial bore and has an annual ridge positioned within the axial bore. The ferrule also has a bottom portion that surrounds the upper end of the hosel. The shaft includes an upper end adapted to be gripped by a golfer and a lower end that extends through the axial bore and into the cavity defined by the hosel. The annular ridge and the annular recess engage each other in an interlocking fashion to inhibit rotation and longitudinal movement of the ferrule.
