Published App of the Week: PING G5i Putter Follow-Up (Visual Alignment Aid)

Approximately one month ago I posted an article regarding Karsten’s patent application, US Pub. No. 2007/0026964, titled “Golf Club Head with Dual Durometer Face Insert,” and the association with the PING G5i putter.

Well, this week another application published that is also directed to the PING G5i putter. Today the application published as US Pub. No. 20070049395, titled “Golf Putter Head With A Visual Alignment Aid And An Increased Moment Of Inertia.”

Click here and select “Craz-E B cavity” from the pull-down menu to see a product photo that is strikingly similar to the following patent application figure.

 This example nicely illustrates that a single golf product may contain multiple patented technologies (or in this case “patent pending” technologies). One application was directed to the face insert and one application is directed to the alignment system and geometry.
