Are Golfers Ready for a “Suspended Face Plate” Iron?
Nike Golf had an interesting patent application publish today disclosing a “suspended face plate” iron. The application published as US Pub. No.
So, what’s the benefit?
[0007] By providing a face plate suspended on the club head of a golf club according to certain embodiments. the amount of vibration sensed by the hands of a user when a golf ball is struck with the golf club can be reduced. As such the “feel” of the club for the user may be improved making the user more comfortable with their swing.
Interesting stuff.
