ABSTRACT:
A golf club includes an elongated shaft and a head and coupling structure at an end of the shaft for joining it to the head. The coupling structure can include a flexing portion of reduced cross-sectional area for improved flexure or a thin strip member defining a unidirectional flexing portion which is resiliently flexible substantially only in a single plane. A shroud may surround the flexing portion to limit flexing thereof. The coupling structure may also include a pivot coupling for pivoting the head about the axis of the shaft or an axis parallel thereto. In another embodiment of the invention the coupling structure is connected to the head only at the rear thereof at the bottom and/or upper edge thereof intermediate the toe and heel and, in the case of a wood-type head, such coupling structure is disposed in a socket in the top of the head. The coupling structure may include any one or more of the flexing, pivoting and medial rear edge attachment features.
