ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a golf club having a shaft, a club head located at end of the shaft and a segmented, variable position grip assembly surrounding the opposite end of the shaft. The grip assembly includes an elliptical upper grip member and an elliptical lower grip member. The upper and lower grip members surround the shaft and are adapted to be selectively rotated relative to one another around the shaft to assume locations that enable the golfer to grasp the club in an optimal and consistent manner so that the club head will strike the golf ball at the same angle during successive strokes. The upper and lower grip members are coupled to each other and to the shaft by the teeth of respective spline sets that are moved into detachable locking engagement. A locking collar surrounds the shaft and slides axially therealong into engagement with the grip assembly to prevent the rotation of the upper and lower grip members around the shaft when the golf club is played.
