The Solution to Your Putting Woes? Think We Will See One on Tour Soon?

Last week a fascinating putter utility patent issued. The design will definitely make you think. The patent is USPN 7244190 titled “Golf Putter,” and the following figures say it all.

The patent describes the invention as:

A golf putter has a head and a shaft connected to the head at a toe end. The head has an L-shaped cross section and a lower edge of a putting surface is smoothly curved with a lowermost point at an approximate midpoint between the toe and a heel of the head. The head has a hosel thereon that is integral with the head for receiving the shaft at a fixed angle. The shaft is straight. 

It couldn’t hurt my putting, so I would give it a try.
