ABSTRACT:
A golf club swing weight scale includes dual weighing scales arranged to provide for the simultaneous measurement of both the total weight and the swing weight of a golf club or other object. The device may include weight scales using either electronic load cells or strain gauges, hydraulic or pneumatic pressure measurement, or mechanical operation, as desired. The scale also includes a weighing pan providing for the weighing of various separate components, as well as providing for the retention of a golf club thereon to determine the total and swing weight thereof. The device also includes stops to preclude excessive oscillation of the weighing pan and club retainers, as well as a golf club or other article placed thereon, during the weighing operation, thus reducing the time required for the scale to come to a rest position. Thus, the present swing weight scale provides for the rapid and accurate determination of both the total weight and the swing weight, or moment from a predetermined position, of a golf club, thereby enabling a technician to make adjustments to the total weight and swing weight of each club of a set as required to match a set of golf clubs accurately.
