Abstract

A golf club assembly is designed to self align its self when the golfer takes a practice swing before hitting a golf ball to the green. The golf ball trajectory to the hole on the green is more accurate, because of this self alignment screw added to the golf club head and the centerline line of the shaft is attached to the golf head to intersect with the centerline of the golf head. This centerline is developed from the sweet spot to the center of gravity of the club head. The club head is designed so it has the same height as the sweet spot.

Claims

1. A golf club shaft assembly attached to the golf club head so that the center line of the grip and shaft intersects the center line of the head for its geometric location. The centerline of the head being a line drawn from the sweet spot of the face of the head to the center of gravity of the head.

2. A golf club head having an alignment screw so that the center line of the screw intersects the center line of the club head and has a vertical adjustment for its geometric location. The centerline of the head being a line drawn from the sweet spot of the face of the head to the center of gravity of the head

3. The intersection of the grip and shaft centerline to the center line of club head and including a alignment device located at the rear of the club head which produces a caster geometry, which will produce a self alignment direction for the golf club assembly at the time of the golfers swing. This will produce a trajectory of the golf ball to be more accurate to its target.
