ABSTRACT:
The specification herein discloses a golf club having an improved moment of inertia. The improved moment of inertia is for both a driver and a putter. The driver is formed of an investment casting having peripheral weights proximate the toe side and heel side of the club. A third weight is provided at the rear of the club. The weights provide a three dimensional configuration for weighting the club wherein the rear weight provides an increased moment of inertia. By increasing the moment of inertia, the club has a lesser tendency to twist when it strikes the ball off the center of gravity thereby creating less torque or twist to the club head for more accurate direction. The putter has the moment of inertia weighting applied above its midline center of gravity so that it provides overspin or top spin to the ball when struck.
