a tip end of a shaft to obtain a proper trajectory for a
specific player” (answer, p. 7). The examiner has not
explained the relevancy of
Allen or Meredith to the golf club defined by claim 23. Our
own review of these references reveals that they do not
overcome the deficiencies of the Fenton-Teramoto-Hogan
combination articulated above.
For the reasons set forth above, the decision of the
examiner to reject claim 23, and claims 24 through 30
dependent thereon, under 35 U.S.C. § 103 is reversed.
CONCLUSION
To summarize, the decision of the examiner to reject
claims 23 through 30 under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) is reversed.
