Description
[0001] This application claims priority to U.S. provisional
application No. 60/622,996 filed Oct. 28, 2004, the entire
disclosure of which is herein incorporated by reference.
TECHNICAL FIELD & BACKGROUND
[0002] The present invention generally relates to the field of golf
clubs. More specifically, the present invention relates to golf
clubs with a waggle weight.
[0003] There is a constant search in the golfing industry to find
new ways to help increase the performance of golfers. The present
invention delivers enhanced performance by providing higher quality
feedback to golfers from golf clubs.
[0004] A swing is any movement begun with a conscious intent to
strike a golf ball. A pre-swing starts with any thought or action
to prepare for striking the golf ball and ends with the start of
the swing. An address is a portion of the pre-swing initiated when
taking one's stance over the golf ball and ended with the start of
the swing.
[0005] A waggle is a motion performed during the pre-swing that
provides feedback to a golfer regarding the golf club about to be
swung. A waggle usually produces a rotation point about a golf
club, called a waggle weight point. The rotation results in an
effective club head weight (could also be interpreted as an
effective golf club total weight) sensed by the golfer when
performing a waggle. This feeling obtained during the pre-swing can
greatly impact on one's setup and subsequent golf swing.
[0006] One area of difficulty preventing the accomplishment of
higher quality feedback to make more precise golf clubs is
traditional swing weighting. Swing weight scales use a static
fulcrum position, almost always fourteen inches, rarely twelve,
from the grip end of a golf club, to make golf clubs to particular
swing weights. The problem is swing weighting is a
one-size-fits-all attempt to balance and match various golf clubs
to different golfers in an effort to improve playability.
[0007] For many golfers swing weight does not work effectively. The
present invention positions a fulcrum at an established waggle
weight point. Golf clubs can now be produced based on waggle
weight. Waggle weight is an alterable, measurable golf club value
instituted when a golf club is placed against a fulcrum located at
a waggle weight point. Using the present invention, golf clubs
henceforth can be efficiently scaled for far more golfers than has
ever been possible before. Once a waggle weight point is matched to
a particular pre-swing style, an assessment to determine a waggle
weight value can take place based on the waggle weight point
position. Upon finding a preferred waggle weight, golf clubs can be
made to the waggle weight in order to improve golfers' consistency
of swinging and performance.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF ILLUSTRATIVE EMBODIMENTS
[0017] Embodiments of the present invention include, but are not
limited to, a waggle weight point disposed about a golf club and
the golf club having a waggle weight, a waggle weight scale with a
fulcrum, a method for establishing a waggle weight point,
determining a waggle weight, and producing at least one golf club
with the waggle weight, a computer-implemented process for locating
a waggle weight point, and systems for locating a waggle weight
point, determining a waggle weight, and generating golf clubs with
the waggle weight.
[0018] Various aspects of the illustrative embodiments will be
described using terms commonly employed by those skilled in the art
to convey the substance of their work to others skilled in the art.
However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the
present invention may be practiced with only some of the described
aspects. For purposes of explanation, specific numbers, materials
and configurations are set forth in order to provide a thorough
understanding of the illustrative embodiments. However, it will be
apparent to one skilled in the art that the present invention may
be practiced without the specific details. In other instances,
well-known features are omitted or simplified in order not to
obscure the illustrative embodiments.
[0019] Various operations will be described as multiple discrete
operations, in turn, in a manner that is most helpful in
understanding the present invention, however, the order of
description should not be construed as to imply that these
operations are necessarily order dependent. In particular, these
operations need not be performed in the order of presentation.
[0020] The phrase "in one embodiment" is used repeatedly. The
phrase generally does not refer to the same embodiment, however, it
may. The terms "comprising," "having," and "including" are
synonymous, unless the context dictates otherwise.
[0021] Referring now to FIG. 1A, in one embodiment, three
dimensions X, Y, and Z are shown. Illustrated is a golf club 10 as
having a grip end 12 and a club head end 14. Also portrayed are a
first force 16 and a second force 18 that are applied to the golf
club 10 by a golfer 15, thereby creating one common form of waggle
movement. The pre-swing, address and any waggle or waggles occur
while preparing to hit a golf ball 20, before the golfer 15 begins
a swing. Some golfers might waggle only once prior to starting
their swings, while others may repeat the maneuver many times ahead
of attempting to strike the golf ball 20. A waggle motion
habitually produces a rotation 24 of the golf club 10 about a
waggle weight point 26. The waggle weight point location 26 may be
specific to each golfer 15 and can vary substantially from golfer
to golfer based on individual pre-swing routines. All golfers'
waggle weight points will lie within a waggle weight point range
30. The waggle weight point range 30 could be in a range of 0 to 36
inches from the grip end 12 of the golf club.
[0022] Referring now to FIG. 1B, in one embodiment, three
dimensions X, Y, and Z are shown. Illustrated are a golf ball 20
and a golf club 10 having a grip end 12 and a club head end 14.
Also portrayed are a third force 17 and a fourth force 19 that are
applied to the golf club 10 by a golfer 15, thereby creating
another common form of waggle movement. Gravitational energy about
the golf club may be felt by the golfer in the course of such
movement. Waggle motions habitually produce a rotation 24 of the
golf club 10 about a waggle weight point 26.
[0023] While the embodiments portrayed in FIGS. 1A and 1B could
each be the all-inclusive waggle style of two different golfers,
the two depictions may also represent individual segments of a more
comprehensive waggle of a single golfer, with movements shown in
FIGS. 1A and 1B that could occur during different time frames.
Waggles, therefore, can have three-dimensional components, with
rotation points (point positions could be in the same place or
different locations) that may be observable and analyzable from
different planes of view as well as at different times during a
golfer's pre-swing waggle or waggles. Waggle movements, including
those portrayed in FIGS. 1A and 1B, can involve the entire body,
and may include a temporary lifting of each foot away from the
ground and a swaying by the golfer in the course of waggling.
Consequently, FIGS. 1A and 1B golf club motions may also contain
other vertical, horizontal, and even circular ingredients.
[0024] Referring to FIG. 2, in one embodiment, illustrated is one
embodiment of a waggle weight scale 40 with a fulcrum 42 and an
electronic display 43. The fulcrum 42 may be permanently fixed at
one point or may be variable. It is understood that the electronic
display 43 could be placed on the waggle weight scale 40 or the
electronic display 43 could be in any other location such as
remotely connected that would operably couple the electronic
display 43 to the waggle weight scale 40 while allowing an operator
to view the electronic display 43 conveniently. The fulcrum 42 will
be set to the waggle weight point 26 of FIGS. 1A and 1B, assuming
identical locations for the waggle weight point 26 in both figures.
For variable fulcrum waggle weight scales, a waggle weight rule 44
may be included. The rule 44 can have increments 46 to allow the
fulcrum 42 to be set at a position that corresponds to the waggle
weight point 26 location. The waggle weight rule 44 may have
increments 46 to each 1/32nd of an inch or 1 millimeter. The
electronic display 43 will read out a value that is equal to the
waggle weight 48 of the golf club 10. The waggle weight 48 of a
golf club 10 can be modified; waggle weight scale preprogramming
may be furnished in order to supply varying waggle weight balance
readings at each accessible waggle weight point fulcrum
location.
[0025] Successive values of swing weight on past swing weight scale
designs are distinguished by changes of one eighth of an ounce of
weight deviation on the very end of a golf club at the grip side
for the standard, fourteen-inch, fixed-fulcrum scale model, over a
range of generally 11 1/2 through 19 ounces. Variations of one
tenth of an ounce, usually throughout a range of 0 to 28 ounces,
characterize consecutive readings on the twelve-inch,
static-fulcrum model, called the Official Scale. The lower numbers
on the Official Scale are conventionally used for measuring the
gross weights of individual golf club components or assembled golf
clubs and are not ordinarily used for swing weighting. The
foregoing figures can be considered for a waggle weight scale
configuration, or an entirely new format may be developed as
desired. Addressing this particular parameter could warrant
initially matching a test group of golfers with their respective
waggle weight points precisely. Additional research might then be
conducted regarding how much a golf club's balance about their
waggle weight points needs to be manipulated before the players
notice a difference in performance. It may be discovered that
weight change statistics surrounding waggle weight do not coincide
with values chosen for previous golf club balancing scales, thus
promoting design revision in this area.
[0026] Referring to FIG. 3, in one embodiment, illustrated is a
waggle weight scale 40 with a fulcrum 42 and a mechanical balance
52. Again the fulcrum 42 will be set to the waggle weight point 26
of FIG. 1A and FIG. 1B, assumed to be at like positions in both
depictions. A waggle weight rule 44 may be included with variable
fulcrum waggle weight scales and can include increments 46 to allow
the fulcrum 42 to be conveniently and precisely set at a position
that corresponds to the waggle weight point 26 location. The
mechanical balance 52, which might be alterable in order to provide
accurate waggle weight values as the fulcrum position varies, will
provide a reading that is equal to the waggle weight 48 of the golf
club 10 when the golf club 10 is balanced on the fulcrum 42.
[0027] Notwithstanding perhaps the inclusion of waggle weight point
location information as part of a waggle weight value,
balance-changing unit designations on a waggle weight scale 40 may
be formatted to any used for previous swing weight scale designs,
such as ounces, grams, or inch-ounce numbers represented by
assigned letter-number labels including C-5, D-2, E-0, or a
completely new measuring scheme can be devised. Each available
waggle weight point position may have its own distinct formulation
for defining and designating waggle weights. Consequently,
variable-fulcrum waggle weight scales might incorporate appropriate
designs to achieve scale recalibrations throughout the accessible
waggle weight point range. It may be possible to convert some
existing swing weight scale models into waggle weight devices
without completely starting from the beginning, depending upon
validated waggle weight scale parameters.
[0028] The waggle weight of a golf club may be figured by manual
calculation in lieu of a waggle weight scale. For each individual
golf club, a balance point can be located as a spot where a fulcrum
is positioned when the golf club rests perfectly horizontal on the
fulcrum. A total weight of the golf club is measured at this center
of gravity location, and a distance is determined from this same
point to the very end of the golf club at the grip side. From this
length is subtracted a decided waggle weight point, which is also a
distance from the grip end of the golf club. The difference is
multiplied by the above-measured weight in order to obtain a
rotational force, or torque, existing at the waggle weight point.
If the lengths are measured in inches and the weight in ounces, the
calculation result will be in units of inch-ounces. Inch-ounce
numbers can be referenced against designations that may be
developed for waggle weight values in order to obtain the waggle
weight of the golf club. Dividing an inch-ounce figure by the
waggle weight point distance can reveal the exact amount of weight
required to be placed on the very end of the golf club at the grip
side in order to balance the golf club in equilibrium when the club
is resting level on the fulcrum at the waggle weight point, for
which reference material may also be made available. This waggle
weight calculation, and the scales portrayed in FIGS. 2 and 3, may
indicate the gravity (vertical) force component(s) felt by a golfer
when waggling, characterized by a sensation of operative golf club
head weight or total weight and more closely depicted by forces 17
and 19 in the movement of FIG. 1B. If lateral pre-swing energies
(more closely associated with FIG. 1A and forces 16 and 18) and/or
any other energies developed and felt during waggling are deemed to
be as crucial or even more so toward subsequent swing performance,
then other apparatus to measure those applied forces around waggle
weight points and help make golf clubs accordingly can be
devised/utilized as desired.
[0029] Referring to FIG. 4, in one embodiment, illustrated is
providing a method to produce golf clubs with a waggle weight.
Shown are analyze at least one movement of at least one golfer 62
and establish a waggle weight point from the at least one movement
64. A waggle weight point location might be positively ascertained
through the use of a computer-implemented process. An attempt to
locate a waggle weight point position may also be made by human
observation. Forasmuch as waggle weight points are found out from
information acquired before a swing is begun, the hitting of golf
balls and even golf club swinging may not be essential in order to
succeed at finding waggle weight point solutions. Establishing the
waggle weight point location might be based on the pre-swing
waggling motion of a single player, or the point's position could
be an average of multiple findings conducted within appointed
golfer categories. In cases where perhaps different planes of
analysis, separate waggles, and/or other factors may reveal variant
waggle weight points for the same individual, further investigation
might be initiated to determine which waggle weight point and its
associated pre-swing action is most crucial to the golfers
subsequent swing performance, or selected results could be
averaged. Also depicted is determine a waggle weight using the
waggle weight point 65. It may be desired to not reevaluate for
waggle weight point location each time a waggle weight is
determined, in which case the named waggle weight point may be a
previously decided value from a former probe. Golfing performance
might be evaluated at various golf club waggle weights, which are
alterable, about the placed waggle weight point. A preferred waggle
weight may be selected. The waggle weight choice could be secured
by the analysis of a specific golfer, or the decision might be
supported by a larger study. Waggle weight readings can be obtained
by using a waggle weight scale. Waggle weight values may also be
manually figured. Subsequently shown is produce at least one golf
club with the waggle weight 66. In addition to new club
construction, the waggle weight method can also be applied on
existing golf clubs.
[0030] Referring to FIG. 5, in one embodiment, is a
computer-implemented process for calculating the location of a
waggle weight point 26. Illustrated are dimensions X, Y, and Z. Due
to the complexities of golfers' waggle motions, computer
implementation to authoritatively and consistently locate waggle
weight points precisely is significant toward effective golf club
waggle weighting for golfers. Provided is collecting golf club
motion data and locating a waggle weight point 26 from the data. A
waggle weight point 26 may correspond to a fulcrum rotation point
developed during pre-swing waggling and can be calculated by a
computer 80. Shown is a first waggle position 67 where facts can be
collected. Data may also be gathered at a second waggle position
68. In calculating the waggle weight point 26 location, the waggle
weight point 26 can be equal to a distance A. Computer-generated
vectors may be created to produce a right triangle ABC. Where angle
.theta. may be an angle between the first waggle position 67 and a
second waggle position 68. Where B can be a distance between the
first waggle position 67 and the second waggle position 68 and is
at a right angle to A. Where A may be calculated as A=B/tan.theta..
Tangent solutions for angles are widely available from mathematical
source material. Automated calculation of waggle weight points can
be rendered using a primary computer-implemented process by design.
Exceeding that, it may be desirable to compose a more detailed
computer-implemented process, which might save and reproduce all
relevant golfing action in a manner more understandable and useful
than can be realized without a computer-implemented process. One
example could be a pre-swing first saved as data and then exhibited
in slow motion, whereby with such a tool a waggle weight point
might be obtained, studied, and explained more manually if
preferred, yet with considerable precision due to the decisive
computer-implemented process. Furthermore, the saved data can be
referenced against any past/future examination in order to monitor
for changes in pre-swing movement and/or waggle weight point. In
consequence, a computer-implemented process to locate waggle weight
points might also be utilized for perhaps research and teaching
purposes.
[0031] With scientific means now available to more accurately and
authoritatively determine any golfer's waggle weight point than
could be accomplished by human observation alone, a
computer-implemented process may also be applied to subsequently
help determine golfers' waggle weights, based perhaps on the swing
timing and/or other determined characteristics of analyzed
golfers.
[0032] Referring to FIG. 6, in one embodiment, a system 70 is
illustrated to locate a waggle weight point 26 and derive a waggle
weight 48. Three dimensions X, Y and Z are shown. A golf club 10
might be outfitted with at least one transmitter 72 that may be
capable of presenting adequate information to position a waggle
weight point, whereupon the golf club 10 could be a first test golf
club. The transmitter(s) can likewise be placed on the golfer being
tested if appropriate. The transmitter(s) 72 may supply at least
one signal 78 to track movement of the golf club 10. If the
signal(s) 78 from the transmitter(s) 72 cannot be directly analyzed
by a computer 80, at least one receiver 76 can be employed that
could acquire and format the signal(s) 78 from the transmitter(s)
72. The computer 80 inputs information from the receiver(s) 76 and
may utilize a computer-implemented process to decipher the location
of a waggle weight point 26 disposed about the golf club 10 during
a golfers pre-swing waggle or waggles. A scale 40 with a fulcrum 42
has its fulcrum 42 set at the waggle weight point 26 location. When
the fulcrum 42 is set at a position that corresponds to the waggle
weight point 26, a waggle weight 48 can be derived on a golf club
10. Waggle weight 48, which is alterable, may then be analyzed.
Given is determining the golfer's waggle weight. This could be
accomplished by using a golf club 10, thereupon the golf club 10
might be a second test golf club, and the scale 40 with its fulcrum
42 set at the waggle weight point 26 position. Various waggle
weight values can be tried and rated pursuant to the golfer's
performance. This would customarily be completed through hitting
golf balls and scrutinizing ball travel characteristics following
golf club contact and/or information obtained concerning the
quality of performed swings. A computer-implemented process may
also be designed and utilized for this task in order to obtain more
scientific results if desired. A favored waggle weight 48 may be
selected. Accordingly provided is at least one golf club produced
with the determined waggle weight. Additional golf clubs could also
be formed to the golfer's, or any golfer's, determined waggle
weight in order to better fit the specific movement of individual
players.
[0033] First and second test golf clubs may take on several forms.
For example, a first test golf club, which could be used for waggle
weight point ascertainment, might be nothing more than a golfer's
own personal club temporarily fitted with a portable sensor placed
externally upon the golf club for the purpose of detecting the
location of a waggle weight point. Alternately, a specialized golf
club may be fabricated that can be used for waggle weight point
location detection in which at least one sensor could be situated
within the golf club along with applicable information
pre-programmed into a computer process. Regarding a second test
golf club, what might be exploited to determine a waggle weight, a
golfer's own personal club may again be used and in fact it could
be the identical golf club used as a first test golf club if it is
suitable for both assignments. However, typical completed golf
clubs do not usually allow for head weights to be adjusted downward
enough to enable an acceptable testing range of waggle weight
values, and even when possible a common procedure of adding and
removing adhesive lead tape to club heads in order to change waggle
weights can be awkward and time consuming. Therefore, a distinct
golf club may also be designed for determining waggle weights. The
club might have variable mass, changeable weights to permit
accurate waggle weighting at different waggle weight point
locations, as variant waggle weight points could necessitate
applying differing weight magnitudes to change the waggle weight an
equal amount. Specific weight measures may be tied to particular
waggle weight point positions. Weight adjustments to alter waggle
weight readings are typically made to the club head of a golf club,
though not always. When not engaged in explicit duties, first and
second test golf clubs are simply golf clubs. Generally speaking,
using golf clubs with overall specifications as close as possible
to what is believed best for the golfer or golfers being analyzed,
or in place of that knowledge what might be considered within a
normal range, may avoid undesirable imprecision during testing, as
well as possible golfer injury.
[0034] Referring to FIG. 7, in one embodiment, a system 90 to
discover the position of a waggle weight point 26 and originate a
waggle weight 48 is illustrated. Three dimensions X, Y and Z are
shown. At least one sensor 92 is disposed about a golf club 10, at
which point the golf club 10 can be a first test golf club. The
sensor(s) 92 might be at least a selected one of a camera, an
optical sensor, and an infrared sensor focused on the golf club 10.
The at least one sensor could also be disposed about a golfer 15 if
considered advantageous toward, as examples, establishing a waggle
weight point and relating results more decisively. A computer 80
inputs data 94 from the sensor(s) 92 and may employ a
computer-implemented process to interpret the data 94 and position
a waggle weight point 26 disposed about the golf club 10 during a
pre-swing. The procedure for locating a waggle weight point might
be repeated multiple times with different golfers if perhaps the
goal is to obtain an average waggle weight point position for a
more mass-produced golf club operation. A scale 40 with a fulcrum
42 has its fulcrum 42 set to the selected waggle weight point 26
location. When the fulcrum 42 is placed at a position that
corresponds with the waggle weight point 26, a waggle weight 48 of
a golf club 10 is originated. Provided is determining a waggle
weight, which is alterable. This may be achieved by utilizing a
golf club 10, which at this stage could be a second test golf club,
and the scale 40 with its fulcrum 42 set to the waggle weight point
26 location. Different waggle weights can be tested and ranked for
effectiveness based on golfing performance of the player or players
being investigated. A preferred waggle weight 48 may be chosen. The
waggle weight value might be based on golf ball flight/roll
observation after being struck, golfer feedback concerning the
feeling(s) sensed in the course of swinging, and/or computer data
acquired throughout golfing action. Subsequently given is producing
golf clubs to the waggle weight. A decided waggle weight could be
applied to create an open-ended number of golf clubs aimed at
benefiting either particular players or general player
categories.
[0035] In addition to the advancements concerning complete golf
clubs and golf club measuring devices covered herein by the present
invention, the introduction of the golf club specification named
waggle weight can also be responsible for new and improved designs
of golf club components including club heads, shafts, grips, and
other clubmaking tools.
