DISCUSSION
Background
The Specification discloses what is said to be an improved golf putter
grip/handle having a unique oval configuration which promotes improved
and consistent stroke control, stroke direction and distance to facilitate
predictable accurate and successful putting. (Specification 4.) “The upper
surface [of the club] includes alignment marks. The alignment marks are in
the shape of a cross-hair, with a first line being located along the longer
elongated or longitudinal axis of the oval in a direction toward the target and
a second shorter line, crossing the first line, in a direction perpendicular to
the target line.” (Specification 4-5.)
