Looking to Make Room in Your Bag for an Extra Club? How About a Combination Sand Wedge and Putter

By David Dawsey PE Esq

That?s right, a combination sand wedge and putter. Not exactly the two clubs that most golfers would think of combining. Check out this club!

This unique combination club is found in USPN 5090703 titled ?Golf Sand Wedge and Putter,? which explains:

A golf club for use as a sand wedge and as a putter, in which the ball-engaging face of the club head has a rectangular central opening through which sand can pass during a stroke while the club is used as a sand wedge. Upper and lower flat ramp surfaces are dimensioned, angled and spaced so as to contact the golf ball at intermediate portions between the outer and inner edges of the ramp surfaces. The upper and lower edges of the ramp surfaces are spaced apart by a distance approximately equal to the diameter of the golf ball to be driven, so as to avoid undesirable binding or cutting of the ball.

Interested? I will have to pass on this golf invention.
