Abstract
The present invention relates to a golf clubhead. Specifically, it relates to a golf putter clubhead comprising a body having a viewing face, and a sole; characterised in that at least one light guide is provided in the body, adapted to direct light through the body to a given location; and at least one viewing aperture is provided and arranged to visualise reflected light from the given location. The invention, in use, is intended to indicate a correct “target line”, thereby affording better aim to a user, and assist in producing a more consistent performance. It is envisaged that when a user addresses a golf ball prior to the stroke, use of the clubhead will facilitate increased putting accuracy by indicating to a user that the clubhead is at the correct position for optimal striking of the ball. Moreover, in use, the clubhead can improve aim by offering a user the opportunity to more reliably strike the ball squarely at the optimum height above the playing surface, and ultimately ensuring that the face of the clubhead is square to stance of the user (and/or the golf ball), during the stroke.
