Patent ID: 7473185

Claim:
A golf puffer comprising (a) a head having a center of gravity and comprising first and second parallel interconnected hollow cylindrical members each (i) having first and second open opposed ends ( 20 , 21 ), and a center (B) with a first mass and a first selected length, (ii) having an outer rounded ball contacting surface with a diameter generally equivalent to the outer rounded ball contacting surface of the other of said interconnected hollow cylindrical members, (iii) having a centerline extending perpendicular to the normal direction of travel of said club head when striking a golf ball, (iv) having a first portion (A) with a mass, a second selected length, and a first inwardly tapered channel extending inwardly from said first open end, (v) having a second portion (C) with a mass, a third selected length, and a second inwardly tapered channel extending inwardly from said second end, the cumulative masses of said first and second portions being less than the mass of said center, said first selected length being up to 50% of the entire length of said head, with said second and third lengths comprising the remainder of the entire length of said head, (vi) shaped and dimensioned that said center of gravity is generally centrally located intermediate said ends, said outer rounded ball contacting surfaces contacts a golf ball at a point above the center of the golf ball, and the puller is free standing; and, (b) a shaft having (i) a proximate end connected to said head generally at said center of gravity, and (ii) a distal end including a handle.
