ABSTRACT:
In accordance with the present invention, a golf putter head is provided having a body portion which includes a front face having an opening which extends all the way from the front face through the body portion. An elastomeric material having a Durometer value to produce substantial resilience is located within this opening in such a manner that there is no metal backing for the elastomeric material. In one embodiment the opening extending inwardly from the front face also extends downwardly to the bottom surface of the putter to assist in locating the elastomeric material within the putter. In accordance with another embodiment of the invention the front face of the putter includes latterly spaced slots on either side of the opening. These slots further assist in locating the elastomeric material within the body portion. In another embodiment of the invention a pair of vertical walls are provided which are connected to a rear face of the body portion and are located perpendicular to the putting surface. These walls are used to facilitate mounting of a putter guiding assembly and optional putter weights. The guiding assembly may include an upper surface which is triangular in shape with a point indicating the direction of movement of the ball.
