IP Grab of the Week – The First Mention of Cleveland Golf on Golf-Patents.com

Congratulations are in order… Cleveland Golf gets its first mention on the Golf-Patents blog.

This week Cleveland Golf’s application number 11/606022 published as US Publication No. 2007/0078030 titled “Iron-Type Golf Club Head With Sole Having Stable Static Address Position.”

The invention is described as an iron-type golf club head having a sole, a center of gravity CG, and a static contact point SCP on the sole substantially vertically below the CG for providing stability when the club head is in an address position, but the sole has no points lower than the SCP when the club head is in the address position. Additionally, the club head may have a centerline plane orthogonal to the plane of the club face and containing the centerline of the club face, with the center of gravity lying in the centerline plane and the lowest point LP on the sole also lying substantially in the centerline plane when the centerline plane is substantially vertical, for minimizing mis-hits with the club head.

The following figures illustrate the concept.

Congratulations Cleveland Golf, keep up the innovation.
