A bulbous putter grip apparatus for allowing for a more relaxed putting grip to improve feel includes a body having a body top end, a body bottom end, and a body sidewall. The body top end has a shaft aperture extending through the body bottom end. The shaft aperture receives a shaft of a putter. The body sidewall has an upper bulbous portion proximal the body top end and a lower portion extending from the upper bulbous portion to the body bottom end. The upper bulbous portion fits within a user's palm. An outer grip is coupled to the body. The outer grip is coupled to the body sidewall and extends from adjacent the body bottom end to adjacent the body top end.

Disclosed are a method for manufacturing a golf putter clubhead, a golf putter clubhead, and a golf putter. The steps of the method for manufacturing the golf putter clubhead include: obtaining or preparing a clubhead body, where the clubhead body includes a clubface, the clubface includes a toe portion, a middle portion, and a heel portion, the toe portion and the heel portion are respectively located at two ends of the clubface, and the middle portion is located between the toe portion and the heel portion; performing stiffening treatment on the clubface; and performing softening treatment on the middle portion after the stiffening treatment. After stiffening treatment is performed on the entire clubhead body, the softening treatment is performed on the middle portion of the clubface, so that stiffness of the toe portion and the heel portion is greater than that of the middle portion of the clubface.

A golf club has a first shaft coupled to a club head, a second shaft configured to slidably engage a portion of the first shaft, a grip coupled to the second shaft, and an adjustable length shaft assembly received by the second shaft and configured to allow a portion of the first shaft to slide in relation to the second shaft in a first configuration, and to restrict a portion of the first shaft from sliding in relation to the second shaft in a second configuration. The grip is restricted from rotation about the first shaft or the second shaft as the first shaft slides in relation to the second shaft.

A putter-chipper golf club may include: a body 110 including a coupling groove portion 110a having a through-hole formed therein; a variable face 120 disposed on one side of the body 110 and configured to function as a putter face or a chipper face; a spring 130 disposed on the circumference of a part of the coupling protrusion portion 120a; and a face cap 150 disposed adjacent to the spring 130. When the coupling groove portion 110a of the body 110 and the coupling protrusion portion 120a of the variable face 120 are disengaged from each other by pulling the variable face 120 from the body 110 toward one side, the golf club may be switched to a putter or a chipper through rotation of the variable face 120.

A golf putter head assembly includes a putter head and a two-part hosel detachably mounted to the putter head by a single removable fastener. The two-part hosel includes a lower intermediate connector extending upwardly from the putter head, and an upper shaft connector extending upwardly from the intermediate connector. The fastener extends through a crown-to-sole through-bore formed in the putter head, through a longitudinal through-bore formed in the intermediate connector, and into a blind bore formed in a lower member of the shaft connector. An upper member of the shaft connector is mountable to a putter shaft. The upper member is angled relative to the lower member to define a shaft-head lie angle, and is offset from the lower member to define a shaft-head offset distance. The intermediate connector has a selected length that establishes a shaft-head balance characteristic. A kit and a method are also disclosed.

To obtain a golf club and a combining member of a golf club shaft and a golf club head that can provide a flexibility in choice of reshafting to a user regardless of types of the golf club shaft and the golf club head. A golf club includes an inner-hosel-type golf club shaft, an over-hosel-type golf club head, and a combining member that combines the inner-hosel-type golf club shaft with the over-hosel-type golf club head.

Customizable golf putters are disclosed. The putters include a putter face; a putter head that is configured to be reversibly connected to the putter face (with the putter head being selected from a plurality of different putter head styles); and a hosel that is configured to be reversibly connected to any of a plurality of hosel receiving channels that are accessible on a top surface of the putter head (the hosel is also selected from a plurality of different hosel styles). The golf putters further include a threaded shaft connector that is configured to reversibly connect the hosel to a putter shaft. In addition, the golf putters include one or more peg fillers, which are configured to be inserted into empty hosel receiving channels.

A multi-material golf shaft having a butt portion joined to a tip portion and possessing unique relationships, including rigidity relationships, which provide beneficial performance characteristics.
