Think Adjustable Club Head Weighting Systems are New? Think Again
As a recent post discussed, Taylor Made recently received a utility patent directed to their r7 driver adjustable weighting system. I started to wonder how long the concept of adjustable weighting has been around, which led me to USPN 1,091,231 titled “Golf Club” and issued on March 24, 1914, and USPN 1,133,129, also simply titled “Golf Club,” that issued one year later on March 23, 1915.
These patents are beautifully simple and are a pleasure to read. Check out the following figures from the patents.
Congratulations to the founders of the adjustable head weight concept.
