Abstract
An insert member for a golf putter, with one face of the insert being adapted to fittingly engage the putting face of a head of the golf putter by means of adhesive, mechanical fasteners, or other fastening means, including by frictional fit, when the insert is fitted within a cutout on the face of the putter. The other face of the insert, which is thereby situated in a putting position for engagement with a golf ball, comprises a regular, elongated curved surface such as an arc section of a cylinder. The elongated curved surface is longitudinally positioned in alignment with a longitudinal axis of the putter head and is preferably of a dimension and position for putting engagement with a golf ball below the equator of the ball. If desired, for whatever purpose, such as for generating top-spin or minimized spin, the vertical position of the curved surface, may be adjusted on the face of the putter head, particularly with an adhesive fitting on a flat putter head face surface. The insert is comprised of titanium, titanium alloy, anodized aluminum, or high strength plastic, which enhances trueness of contact with a golf ball being putted.
