First Claim
Patent Images
1. A golf club head having a face for contacting a golf ball and a weight positioning system, the weight positioning system comprising:
- a support having a longitudinal axis extending along a length of the support; and
a weight that is movable along the support and around the support to vary a position of a center of gravity of the golf club head, the weight defining an opening that extends at least partially around the support,wherein one of an indentation and a protrusion extends along the support and in a direction substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the support, and another of the indentation and the protrusion is positioned within the opening, the indentation receiving the protrusion to limit movement of the weight around the support.

Abstract
A golf club head is disclosed that includes weight positioning system for modifying a position of a center of gravity of the golf club head. The weight positioning system includes a weight and a support. The weight is independently movable along the support to change the position of the center of gravity in a first direction, and the weight is independently movable around the support to change the position of the center of gravity in a second direction.

20. A golf club head having a face for contacting a golf ball and a weight positioning system, the weight positioning system comprising:
-
a support having a longitudinal axis extending along a length of the support; a weight that is movable along the support and around the support to vary a position of a center of gravity of the golf club head, the weight defining an opening that extends at least partially around the support; and at least one scale located to determine a position of the weight relative to the support, the at least one scale including a first scale and a second scale, the first scale being oriented to extend in a direction substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis, and the second scale being oriented to extend in a direction substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36)
