The Thunder scored 40 third-quarter points, and the Celtics never recovered, snapping a five-game win streak with a 122-118 loss in Oklahoma City.
The Thunder scored 40 third-quarter points, and the Celtics never recovered, snapping a five-game win streak with a 122-118 loss in Oklahoma City.
The C's fell to 30-37 on the season, losing a game on the Heat (31-36), who beat the Blazers on Wednesday night. Elsewhere, the Pacers (30-37) fell to the Bulls, the Bucks (34-34) lost to the Spurs, and the Cavaliers beat the Nets (27-39). The Celtics lead the idle Hornets by a half-game and remain tied with Indiana for eighth place, trailing Miami by a game for seventh and Milwaukee by 3.5 games for sixth.
Marcus Smart collected 21 points — including a franchise rookie record seven 3-pointers — to go along with nine rebounds, five assists, two steals and two blocks, leading six Celtics in double figures. Kelly Olynyk (20 points), Brandon Bass (20 points), Avery Bradley (13 points), Tyler Zeller (12 points) and Jae Crowder (11 points) rounded out the double-digit scorers, and Evan Turner chipped in with five steals, six rebounds, eight points and a team-high 10 assists.
Meanwhile, Russell Westbrook led the Thunder with 36 points, 10 assists, five rebounds and five steals, while Enes Kanter added 22 points and 10 rebounds. With the victory, Oklahoma City (38-30) opened up a half-game lead over the Pelicans for eighth place in the Western Conference sans Kevin Durant and Serge Ibaka.

With Bradley, Smart and Phil Pressey all sharing duties, the Celtics did a nice job containing Westbrook in the first quarter, holding the MVP candidate to five points on 1-for-7 shooting. Except, Westbrook's open Thunder teammates scored 23 points on 10-of-14 field goals — aided by six Celtics turnovers — and Oklahoma City took a 28-24 lead after one despite the C's shooting 60 percent in the quarter.
With OKC pairing Kanter and Steven Adams (14 points, 13 rebounds) in the frontcourt, the C's camped Olynyk and Jonas Jerebko beyond the arc, and the stretch forwards made them pay early. Olynyk and Jerebko hit their first three 3-point attempts, leading a 58.3 percent first-halt shooting barrage from the perimeter, but the Celtics couldn't sustain the hot streak while OKC punished them inside.
Playing his first game in the state since being drafted out of Oklahoma State this past June, Smart enjoyed quite the homecoming, scoring 14 points (4-6 3P) in the second quarter alone to help the C's take a 57-54 lead into the break. He added four boards, two assists, a steal and one remarkable block in the opening 24 minutes.
Without Isaiah Thomas (back bruise) careening toward the rim, the Celtics didn't attempt a free throw until midway through the third quarter, when Brandon Bass knocked down a pair of freebies at the 7:04 mark. The C's shot the lights out in the first half, but when the jump shots stopped falling, the Thunder made their run. Even when the Celtics finally attacked the rim and got to the line after halftime, they failed to capitalize, missing five of their 10 third-quarter free throws.
Westbrook emerged in the third, taking over and igniting the Chesapeake Energy Arena crowd. He amassed 15 points (3-10 FG, 1-3 3P, 8-10 FT), two assists, two rebounds and two steals in the frame, sparking a 40-point quarter that transformed the C's four-point halftime lead into a 12-point deficit entering the fourth quarter. The Celtics never quit, making a 12-3 run to cut it to a five-point game in the final 2:30, but couldn't make it over the hump once Oklahoma City assumed the lead.
The bad news: Contrary to popular opinion, the Celtics are not currently in the playoff picture, since as of today they would lose the tiebreaker to both the Pacers and Heat based on their sub-.500 record against Eastern Conference opponents.
The good news: If the Celtics (30-36) have one more win than Charlotte (29-36), Indiana (30-36) and Miami (30-36) when all is said and done, they'll capture the same seventh seed they earned when last they made the playoffs in 2013.
Heck, based on their performance since the NBA trade deadline (10-5, including five straight victories), there's even an outside possibility the red-hot Celtics could catch the reeling sixth-seeded Bucks (34-32), whose four wins in 13 games since trading Brandon Knight have come against the Nuggets, 76ers, Wizards and Magic.
Obviously, that's jumping ahead a bit, so let's step back and take a look at the remaining schedules of the four Eastern Conference teams now tied with 36 losses.

The Hornets have the toughest slate of that bunch, and the Heat the easiest, but really there isn't all that much separation between these four teams on the schedule. Injuries are forcing all four clubs to shuffle rosters — perhaps none more so than the C's — and yet all four squads own winning records since the NBA All-Star break.
So, what happens if the seventh and/or eighth seeds come down to a tiebreaker? Here's where the teams stand based on the league's two tiebreaking scenarios — settling the score for one seed involving a) two teams, or b) three or more teams.
Head-to-head: Hornets over Celtics (2-1) and Heat (2-1); Pacers over Heat (2-1) and Hornets (2-1); Celtics over Pacers (2-1); Heat over Celtics (2-1).
Win percentage in East: Hornets (.564); Pacers (.550); Heat (.500); Celtics (.462).
Win percentage vs. East teams eligible for playoffs: Hornets (.560); Pacers (.423); Heat (.346); Celtics (.292).
Win percentage vs. West teams eligible for playoffs: Pacers (.167); Celtics (.154); Heat (.154); Hornets (.000).
Point differential: Pacers (+14); Celtics (-48); Hornets (-144); Heat (-154).
As of now, the Celtics would only win a tiebreaker against the Pacers, based on their head-to-head record. However, if they ultimately finish 2-2 against the other three teams, things get worse. The C's currently wouldn't win either the second or third tiebreaker against anybody, due to their sub-par winning percentage in the East.
Head-to-head: Hornets (5-4); Pacers (5-4); Heat (4-5); Celtics (4-5).
Win percentage in East: Hornets (.564); Pacers (.550); Heat (.500); Celtics (.462).
Win percentage vs. East teams eligible for playoffs: Hornets (.560); Pacers (.423); Heat (.346); Celtics (.292).
Point differential: Pacers (+14); Celtics (-48); Hornets (-144); Heat (-154).
Once again, the Celtics, as they stand today, are in serious trouble if they end up tied with more than one team for the final playoff seed. They own the worst combined head-to-head record, worst winning percentage against Eastern Conference opponents and worst win percentage against playoff-eligible teams in the East.
Of course, there's a rather simple solution for the Celtics down the stretch: Win more of their final 16 games than the Heat, Hornets and Pacers. Then, and perhaps only then, they're in, which is probably why the C's aren't scoreboard watching.
Celtics point guard Isaiah Thomas joined Middays with MFB on Tuesday to discuss his back injury and also what his short time in Boston has been like. To hear the interview, go to the MFB audio on demand page.
Celtics point guard Isaiah Thomas joined Middays with MFB on Tuesday to discuss his back injury and also what his short time in Boston has been like. To hear the interview, go to the MFB audio on demand page.
Thomas has been out since March 9 when he landed on his back in a game against the Heat. It was learned Monday night he likely won't make the next road trip, which includes stops in Oklahoma City and San Antonio. Thomas admits it's been hard to miss time, especially against good teams, but knows his health is the most important thing.
"It is, but at the same time I have to do what is best for myself," said Thomas. "I have to do what is best for myself and try and get as healthy as possible. All the best players they want to go against the best players, so I am upset I have to miss this, but it is for the sake of my health and I have to get healthy."
"A little better," he added of how he feels. "It's progressing slowly, but it's getting there. For the most part I can't really do any activity right now, but I am just trying to get back and get healthy enough that we can have a good stretch at the end of this year."
In six games in March, Thomas is averaging 20.8 points per game.
Thomas was traded to the Celtics from the Suns at the NBA trade deadline. He said he's enjoying his time in Boston, and hopes to stay long-term. He adds if the team starts winning it could become a free agent destination once again.
"I hope it's long term," he said. "I am having a great time. I am having fun. I am playing. We're winning. We have a chance to make the playoffs, so I have nothing to complain about other than the weather, but that will be OK. I think it's somewhere when you start winning and see you've seen years ago when the team was winning people wanted to be here. I think at the end of the day when you win that is where people want to play."
Following are more highlights from the conversation. For more Celtics news, visit weei.com/celtics.
On coach Brad Stevens: "He's a great coach. He coaches to players strengths. He puts you in a position to be successful. You have to go out there and try just figure out why you're on the court. I feel like that is the best way you can coach players. They have to figure out on the court and make an adjustment and play the game. He's a good Xs and Os coach. He knows what he wants to do and we try and execute it as best as possible when we get out on the floor."
On his play in the fourth quarter of games: "I've always been able to — I am very aggressive in that fourth quarter. And again, coach puts me in position to be successful when I am playing in the fourth quarter and it is something that I like. I like that type of pressure and I believe I play a little better once the game is on the line."
With winning comes confidence. With confidence late in the season comes expectation. And these Celtics are talking and acting like a team that expects to make a run to the Eastern Conference playoffs with 16 games left in their season.
Avery Bradley is one of only three players left from the last Celtics team to make the playoffs just two seasons ago. He, Brandon Bass and Shav Randolph were all on the 2013 team that lost in six games to the Knicks.
When the Celtics were 20-33 this season and headed for another seemingly dead end to the season, could he picture his teammates making an improbable run to the postseason?
"For sure, I saw that we were improving every single game and I knew we would have a chance if we set our mind to it and started [believing] in our [potential] and that's what we were doing. We never thought we didn't have a chance to make the playoffs. Now we're right there."
Indeed, after Monday's 108-89 blowout of the hapless Sixers, the Celtics are definitely in the mix. While technically ninth and on the outside looking in due to their 18-21 record in the East, they are tied with the Pacers and Heat for seventh in the East with a 30-36 record.
Monday, the Celtics came in focused, even in shootaround, determined not to let a game against the 15-51 Sixers stand in their way of their first five-game win streak under Brad Stevens. They outscored Philly 38-18 in the first quarter and it wasn't a game after that.
"It's hard, especially when you come in at halftime up by 20 and your coach might say, 'let's go out there and continue to play hard,' you get a little nervous," Bradley said. "You start thinking once you get back out there on the floor and that's one thing we didn't do. Even though they were scoring we continued to execute our plays on both ends of the floor and it helped us continue to have a 20 point lead."
When the Celtics, who shot 67 percent in the first quarter, looked inside, there was Tyler Zeller leading the way. He found his comfort zone and poured in a career-high 26 points.
"I don't know, I mean the shots fell down," Zeller said. "Jump shot felt really good and then they kept leaving me open so I just kept shooting it. Once again my teammates do a great job of getting me the ball on time and it makes it a lot easier."
Road games against teams like Oklahoma City and San Antonio can be intimidating for young teams in transition. But that's not the way these Celtics are looking at Wednesday and Friday. It's a chance to show how much fun they're having chasing an improbable playoff spot.
"It's a lot of fun," Zeller said. "The whole year we've been changing, I think Danny's done a great job putting together the team that we've got. We've been playing with different players every night and finally have a team where we've settled in, playing with the same players every night and it's fun to go to battle that way. We do a great job of playing hard and playing together."
Brad Stevens knows the potential of his team. He's just not talking much about it. And, according to the Celtics coach, neither are his players.
With Monday's 108-89 dispatch of the lowly 76ers, the Celtics had posted their first five-game win streak since the Doc Rivers era. They are 30-36, heading into a two-trip across the heartland, beginning with a game against the red-hot Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday and ending with a game against the defending champion Spurs in San Antonio Friday night.
They are tied with Miami and Indiana for seventh in the East but technically would not make the cut right now because of their 18-21 record against the East. Indiana would be seventh by virtue of its 22-18 mark while Miami is eighth with a conference record of 20-20.
With all the newfound excitement abound, Stevens was asked if he's hearing the team talking about the playoff race
"I don't know. I haven't heard them talk about it once," Stevens insisted. "I'm dead serious. I mean, we've talked about it, we've seen the standings, like you see it but I don't hear it. I have not hear them say whoever Miami's playing today, or who's Charlotte playing today? They haven't talked about it around me; maybe they are, I don't know.
"But I just want to play good basketball and I think our guys just want to play good basketball, and I think as a result you have a lot more fun when you spray the ball around the way we're spraying it around and when you're competing together and pulling for one another and five guys playing together on a string defensively. And we're still not as good as we need to be, even with ' I think our team that's out there right now without Isaiah can play better. And you know, we're going to need to play better in the next two games to have a chance to win."
Since falling to 20-33 after a 118-111 overtime loss to the Lakers on Feb. 22, the Celtics have won 10 of 13.
"Obviously, we're judged on wins and losses, but I don't really know about the total number or how many games out of how many games ' I just think, I knew we were on the right track," Stevens said. "Even when we were losing earlier in the year I felt like we had made a lot of progress tactically and technically on both sides of the ball; it was just a matter of getting guys, getting us over the hump. And we found a group that's really connected and playing well and we're fortunate that they've continued to play well with guys out."
What's perhaps most remarkable about what the Celtics are doing is change all around them. There were the flurry of trades, the new faces and the injuries to the likes of Jared Sullinger, Avery Bradley and now Isaiah Thomas. Bradley has returned and was a force Monday with 20 points and 10 rebounds.
"I mean, four straight games without Isaiah now, and three straight before without Avery and it's not easy to play without basically your two leading scorers, not even including Sullinger in that. So it's been good, and the next man stepped up. We're going on a tough road trip; that's really all I'm thinking about right now."
What's been the key to the progress and consistency?
"I think it's the continuity of the guys that have been here the whole time," Stevens explained. "They've really helped and really helped the way in a lot of ways. And then I just think our additions have been good: good solid team guys that will compete, that are our there helping each other and supporting one another and so that's been a positive."
Two weeks ago, the Celtics led the same Sixers team by 26 and let them cut it to three in the fourth quarter before pulling away. Such was not the case Monday night. The Sixers cut it to 16 early in the third quarter but never got closer than that the rest of the way.
"I think the biggest thing is when you're up 23 is being able to answer their punches quickly, and we did that," Stevens said. "You know, I don't think it ever got below 16 and I was monitoring that pretty closely, and we answered pretty consistently in the second half when they did make a basket or two. And they can put a lot of pressure with their athleticism on your defense when they start playing really free like that, especially with Ish Smith pushing the ball.
"So as a coach you're never comfortable, and certainly it's 20 points at halftime's like ' all you're wanting to do is the clock to run twice as fast. But our guys responded well and I think we grew from ' you think about the last time we played Philadelphia, we were up 26 in the first half and then it was a three-point game in the fourth quarter. So we talked about are we any better? Let's find out. Maybe we are a little bit better. That's obviously the goal as you move forward through the season."
The NBA's Sixth Man of the Year as a member of the 1985-86 Celtics that finished 67-15 during the regular season — and 41-1 at home in the Boston Garden — on their way to winning 15-of-18 playoff games and the franchise's 16th NBA title, Bill Walton can wish you a St. Patrick's Day far better than I can.
So, without further ado, I give you Walton uncensored, about five or six Guinesses deep most likely (from his 2011 appearance on the Big Show four years ago):
"Go Green. Go Guinness. I'm popping one right now. Ten million pints poured every day around this great globe of ours — the globe, the most perfect orb, just like the basketball. The basketball by itself does nothing, but when you make it an extension of your mind the way that [Rajon] Rondo does, the way that Danny Ainge did and DJ [Dennis Johnson] and Larry [Bird] and Kevin [McHale] and Chief [Robert Parish] and Jerry [Sichting] and Rick [Carlisle] and Scotty [Wedman] and all the guys did — but when you're able to make an extension of your mind, of what it is you're doing in life, whether it's drinking a Guinness responsibly, whether you're bouncing that magic basketball for the Celtic Green, you can make a difference, and that's what we're calling everybody to do on St. Patrick's Day, the start of the college tournament, the most perfect harmonic convergence ever. Be bold, stand tall, quit your job and chase your dreams. …
"I only drink Guinness, the holy water falling from the sky, delivering spiritual guidance. We're blessed. We're so blessed. We're on record pace, and we're having the time of our life. …
"When this morning started, and it started more than 24 hours ago, the call to action was to take the day off. Who wants to lead a watered down life? C'mon. Let's get up and be bold. Forget just taking the day off, just quit your job. Make your dream your job, and that's what I was able to do. My parents ask me to this very day, 'So, Billy, did you ever get a job?' I'm closer than ever to being able to say yes. It's so special. The remarkable thing about Guinness in our world is that in the mother country, Ireland, St. Patrick's Day is a national holiday. In Canada, St. Patrick's Day is a national holiday. Somewhere, we got lost along the path, along the golden road to unlimited devotion. …
"When you go over to Ireland, and you go to Dublin, and you go to the Guinness thing, they have the Hall of Brilliance, and I'm in there already. I've had a lot of honors in my world, and none more important than that one. …
"Assume responsibility. That's what Guinness is all about. Live in a world of exploration, curiosity, experimentation that leads to a culture of generosity, but do it responsibly. If you're looking around, blaming other people, if you're not willing to stand tall and be bold, if you're not willing to quit your job and chase your dreams, then what are you doing on the Boston Celtics. Let's go. What are the two sets of three from John Wooden? Don't whine, don't complain, don't make excuses, and don't lie, don't cheat, don't steal. That covers a lot of ground. …
"The young people, the children, they don't care that you have red hair and a big nose and a goofy, nerdy looking face and you stutter all the time and you're a Deadhead and you're drinking Guinness every minute. They're going to care that you're there, and when you care about them, they will care about you. Through practice and through a lifetime of experimentation, maybe you have a chance to play in the game of life one more time — that opportunity that Red [Auerbach] and Larry and Celtics Nation gave me. …
"It's St. Patrick's Day. Let's go. Start the party early. Pop one early. Get that pint going."
The hottest team in the NBA? Well, that might just be the Boston Celtics.

On many Sundays during the summer we find ourselves at 2Amys, tired and famished after a long morning at the zoo, trying to keep our two thrashing children from making too much of a disturbance. An order of arancini — deep-fried risotto balls stuffed with cheese — usually does the trick, settling the children (and us) at first bite.
I LOVE arancini, but they're a total pain to make, not only calling for leftover risotto, but also requiring a lengthy assembly process — shaping, stuffing, breading and deep frying. Crispy on the outside, oozing with cheese on the inside, these "little oranges" are worth their every effort — once I made them at home — but they are not something to whip up every day, better ordered out a place like 2Amys, best (not that I speak from experience) picked up at a vendor parked along a Palermo sidewalk.

Redskins quarterback also says he won't make comparisons to last year: 'That question will not be answered.'
Team will practice in Richmond from July 24-Aug. 11.
Here what Washington will be up to between now and the first game.
Washington will get together several times for different types of practice between now and training camp in July.
News broke late Tuesday night. We've got it covered from many angles, so get caught up here, or talk about the move with fellow Redskins fanatics.
We ask readers to project their ideal offseason for Washington ... within reason, of course.
Mike Jones tackles questions from readers, including those asking why Josh LeRibeus can't catch and why Alfred Morris is no threat to catch a pass.
Mike Jones shares what he observed at Redskins practice on Thursday, including in the secondary and at running back.
Redskins coach says, "I can't tell you for sure" if plays will be changed to protect Robert Griffin III.
Quarterback Robert Griffin III made an appearance, but didn't say much, at teammate Brian Orakpo's charity golf tournament.

Medical Ethics: A Very Short IntroductionIssues in medical ethics are rarely out of the media and it is an area of ethics that has particular interest for the general public as well as the medical practitioner. This short and accessible introduction provides an invaluable tool with which to think about the ethical values that lie at the heart of medicine. Tony Hope deals with the thorny moral questions such as euthanasia and the morality
Managing Your Mind:The Mental Fitness GuideOriginally published in 1995, the first edition of Managing Your Mind established a unique place in the self-help book market. A blend of tried-and-true psychological counseling and no-nonsense management advice grounded in the principles of CBTand other psychological treatments, the book straddled two types of self-help literature, arguing that in one's personal and professional life, the way to
Ethical Issues in Preventive Medicine
Nato Science Series D: (Book #26)The first suggestions and exchange of ideas for this Workshop began about two years ago when, at the invitation of Professor E Bennett, Director of Health and Safety of the Commission of the European Communities and Professor W W Holland of the Panel of Social Medicine and Epidemiology of the EEC, I asked the Panel to sponsor a project for the study of Ethical Issues in Preventive Medicine.

Managing Intimacy and Emotions in Advanced Fertility Care: The future of nursing and midwifery rolesThis book is intended for nurses and midwives who work in Assisted Reproduction clinics and those who either work in, or have an interest in womens health. The number of IVF births is increasing steadily as a percentage of all births and therefore infertility may be said to be increasingly influential in womens health nursing and midwifery. The sense of connectedness which women caring for women
Biotechnology, Education and Life Politics
Debating genetic futures from school to society
Routledge Research in EducationWhat should individuals and society do when genetic screening becomes widely available and with its impact on current and future generations still uncertain? How can our education systems around the world respond to these developments? Reproductive and genetic technologies (RGTs) are increasingly controversial and political. We are entering an era where we can design future humans, firstly, by
Human Dignity in Bioethics and LawDignity is often denounced as hopelessly amorphous or incurably theological: as feel-good philosophical window-dressing, or as the name given to whatever principles give you the answer that you think is right. This is wrong, says Charles Foster: dignity is not only an essential principle in bioethics and law; it is really the only principle. In this ambitious, paradigm-shattering but highly
Biomedical Law and Ethics LibraryCritiquing many areas of medical practice and research whilst making constructive suggestions about medical education, this book extends the scope of medical ethics beyond sole concern with regulation. Illustrating some humanistic ways of understanding patients, this volume explores the connections between medical ethics, healthcare and subjects, such as philosophy, literature, creative writing
Cloning - few words have as much potential to grip our imagination or grab the headlines. No longer the stuff of science fiction or Star Wars - it is happening now. Yet human cloning is currently banned throughout the world, and therapeutic cloning banned in many countries. In this highly controversial book, John Harris does a lot more than ask why we are so afraid of cloning. He presents a deft
An Interest in Autonomy as the Basis for Novel Negligence Claims Generated by Genetic Technology
Biomedical Law and Ethics LibraryAdvances in human genetics are set to revolutionise the way we think about our health. Within the context of such changing social circumstances, this book identifies novel grievances that might be generated by modern human genetic technologies and considers how the English tort regime might respond to these grievances.

Selling items for a profit on eBay is easy when those items are things that kids want. The time of year between October and mid January is especially good since that time of the year is the Holiday Season and many gifts are exchanged.
As you know, for the Holidays and XMAS, many kids receive toys as gifts. Of course there are all kinds of toys, but there are some that are more popular than others and those are often termed as "hot selling toys". This year, these would be toys like TMX Elmo and Ipod and many others.
So, with this frame of mind, why not consider getting some of these "hot selling toys" and selling them on eBay for a profit? The idea here is to buy known hot selling toys in advance of the holidays and resell them on eBay for a profit. Call it toy arbitrage.
Many of the most sought after toys will start to become scarce right around Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving.

(d) a shaft secured to the upper end of the hosel to establish a predetermined club lie angle;
(e) said hosel and shaft being rotatably positioned at said lower hosel end and said cylindrical bore to establish a face balanced condition; and
(f) mechanical fastener means extending from the bottom of said club head into engagement with said hosel securing said hosel to said head in said face balanced condition.
6. The putter of claim 5 wherein said fastener is in threaded engagement with a cooperatively threaded section on said hosel.
7. The putter of claim 5 further including an adhesive applied to said hosel and bore.
The present invention relates to a golf club and more particularly an improved golf putter.
The game of golf has universal appeal due in large part to the mental and physical demands of the game as well as the pastoral setting in which the game is normally played. It has been said that golf is a devilish game played in a heavenly surrounding. The game requires power and coordination for the longer shots and demands a high degree of finesse and skill for short shots, particularly the act of putting the ball on the green. Golf putters are available in a wide range of configurations to appeal to the personal preference of the golfer to provide the proper "feel" when the ball is struck and to assist the golfer in aligning the golf club, ball and cup.
For example, it is known to symmetrically weight balance putters with the principal mass of the putter located behind the face of the putter at the heel and toe of the putter. This design is generally termed heel-toe weighting and is intended to reduce the torque or twisting effect if the ball is slightly mis-struck or struck away from the centerline of mass of the putter head.
In addition to designs which emphasize weight distribution, other putter configurations include designs that have sighting or alignment features which assist the golfer in properly aligning the club, golf ball and cup. Various putter designs can also be found in which a portion of the putter head is relieved or removed to reduce the mass of the putter head. In some cases, the relieved area accommodates a golf ball so that the putter head can be used to easily scoop or lift the golf ball from the cup.
For example, U.S. Pat. No. 3,779,398 shows a golf putter in which the club head has an arcuate rear surface and a top surface with a recess therein. The recess in the top surface is generally in the shape of a semicircle which opens to the rear of the club so that the club head may be inserted into the cup to scoop balls without the golfer having to bend over. The arcuate shape of the rear of the putter and the arc described by the sides of the recess assist the golfer in aligning the putt.
U.S. Pat. No. 3,632,112 shows a putter head having a golf ball holding cavity in the body of the putter which is dimensioned and configured to encompass more than half of a golf ball for releasably holding a golf ball. The club is provided with sight lines in the top surface of the putter on either side of the cavity.
U.S. Pat. No. 3,708,172 shows a golf putter having a generally vertically extending hole of circular cross section extending entirely through the head between the top and bottom wall. The hole splits a sighting mark on the top surface of the putter head into forward and rearward segments and divides the head into substantially equal masses in order to counter balance the tendency of the head to twist out of position upon misaligned contact with a golf ball and the putter striking face. The symmetrical wall segments of the rear wall taper rearwardly from the side walls and merge to a point that coincides with a sight groove.
U.S. Pat. No. 3,884,477 shows a golf ball driving head which is provided with a circle of precisely the diameter of the golf ball in the upper surface of the club head which when viewed with the golf ball to be struck, assists in aligning the club and ball.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,073,492 discloses a customized putter which has a ball and socket arrangement so the shaft may be orbitally moved relative to the head to secure the desired position and achieve face balancing.
The term "sweet spot" as used throughout, is used in its normal sense as understood by golfers to designate the spot or location on the face of the club where the mass of the club head is centered. Therefore, the same amount of mass is disposed towards the heel as is disposed towards the toe of the club on either side of the sweet spot. When the golf ball is contacted at the sweet spot, a recognizable, solid and satisfying contact is made between the ball and the club which is often attended by a distinct and a solid sound. The experienced golfer clearly recognizes a properly struck shot from the feel and sound which results when this occurs. Striking the ball at the sweet spot eliminates or minimizes the tendency of the twist or turn misdirecting the putt.
In spite of the various features, constructions and designs for putters that can be found in the prior art, there nevertheless exists a need for a putter which combines the advantages of heel-toe weighting in a putter having a configuration which assists the golfer in aligning the putter and focuses the golfer's vision on the "sweet spot" on the face of the putter.
Accordingly, it is a principal object of the present invention to provide a golf putter having heel-to-toe weighting to minimize the torque effects of a mis-struck putt.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide a golf putter which has a configuration with the mass of the putter oppositely distributed at the heel and toe of the putter.
Another object is to provide a putter having a configuration which directs the vision of the golfer to the sweet spot to enhance the probability of a properly struck ball.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a relieved area or cavity at the rear of the fact of the putter which cavity has the appearance of a portion of the exterior surface of the golf ball to further assist in properly aligning the ball with respect to the face of the club.
Still another object is to provide a putter design which permits fine adjustments to be made at the time of assembly so precise face balancing can be achieved.
Still another object of the invention is to provide a golf putter which does not visually obstruct the golfer's view of the ball and line when addressing the ball.
Briefly, the present invention relates to a golf putter having a striking face which is generally vertically oriented. Heel and toe sections are located opposite ends of the blade behind the face of the putter. The configuration of the heel and toe sections include a surface or an edge which extends or diverges rearwardly, outwardly and away from the sweet spot on the putter to naturally draw the user's eye to the sweet spot. An intermediate body portion is provided behind the sweet spot and has a generally hemispherical recess or cavity approximating or resembling the exterior shape of a portion of a golf ball. The cavity may be smooth or preferably is provided with male or female dimples similar to those on the exterior of a golf ball. This configuration serves to remove weight from behind the sweet spot, provides a higher moment of inertia and also provides a visual reference to assist the golfer in properly aligning and striking the ball at the sweet spot.
In addition the present invention provides a design and manufacturing technique for face balancing the putter which permits relative adjustment of the head and hosel and attached shaft at the time of final assembly.
The above and other objects and advantages of the present invention will be more fully understood from the following description, claims and drawings in which:
FIG. 1 is a top perspective view showing the golf putter of the present invention;
FIG. 2 is a top view of the putter of the present invention;
FIG. 3 is a front view of the putter of the present invention;
FIG. 4 is a sectional view taken along lines 4--4 of FIG. 2;
FIG. 5 is a top view of the putter in an address-position, with a golf ball positioned at the face of the putter;
FIG. 6 is a top view of the putter head in a face balanced position;
FIG. 7 shows the putter supported on a stand to determine whether the club is face balanced; and
FIG. 8 is an exploded sectional view taken along lines 8--8 of FIG. 6 illustrating the attachment of the club head and shaft to permit fine assembly adjustment for proper face balancing.
Referring to FIGS. 1 to 5, the putter of the present invention is shown and is generally designated by the numeral 10 and includes a head 12 attached to shaft 14 at hosel 16. The hosel is shown as having a generally vertical section 18 and offset section 20 which section defines a bore 22 which receives the lower end of the shaft 14. The shaft is connected to the hosel. As seen in FIGS. 1 and 5, the vertical section 18, offset 20 and bore 22 are relatively positioned so the upper end of the hosel at the point of attachment to the shaft is forward of the face 25. The upper end of the hosel section 20 is displaced from section 18 in a direction toward the toe. However, the offset 20 when viewed at address does not project beyond a line L1 tangent to the periphery of a properly positioned ball which line L1 is parallel to the intended ball path L2. Thus, the shaft and hosel do not visually obstruct or interfere with the putting procedure.
The upper end of the shaft is conventional and terminates at a grip 15 shown in FIG. 7. The lower end of the hosel is attached to the head of the putter in a manner which facilitates face balancing at an assembly as will be explained with reference to FIGS. 6 to 8. The putter head and hosel may be fabricated by any conventional method such as investment casting, forging or powder injection molding from materials such as stainless steel, brass, bronze, aluminum or an alloy of these materials. Similarly, the head may be milled or machined as required. The particular manufacturing techniques and materials are a matter of choice.
The putter head includes a vertically oriented striking face 25. The terms "vertical" and "horizontal" are used herein for reference with respect to the putter in its normal position of use. The face is defined by a generally horizontal top edge 26, opposite ends 28 and 30 and bottom surface 32. The bottom surface 32 may be substantially horizontal or may be slightly curved having a sole radius as shown to avoid scuffing the heel or toe of the putter when putting. The putter head is basically symmetrical with respect to the vertical and horizontal centerlines designated by "CL" along which the "sweet spot" 55 is located. The center of gravity is also located along line CL.
As best seen in FIGS. 1, 2 and 3, the putter head includes a rearwardly extending intermediate section 40 and heel and toe sections 42 and 44, respectively. Intermediate section 40 is symmetrically positioned immediately behind the sweet spot and has a rear wall 45 which is convex as seen in FIG. 2 and which forwardly curves to intersect the bottom surface 32 of the putter. The section 40 defines an upwardly opening cavity or recess 46 having a diameter corresponding approximately to the diameter of a conventional golf ball. As shown, the cavity 46 is approximately hemispherical although the cavity may be less than hemispherical. It is important that the cavity when viewed from above gives the golfer the visual impression of a substantial portion of a golf ball. Thus, surface 48 preferably covers an area equal to at least approximately one-fourth the area of the exterior surface of a regulation golf ball. The interior surface 48 of the cavity is curved and may be smooth but preferably has dimples 50 which may be concave or convex and provide an appearance corresponding to the appearance of the exterior of a golf ball. As will be more fully explained hereafter, the cavity serves to relieve weight from the putter head in an area behind the sweet spot and also provides a visual aiming reference device which when viewed above in the normal putting stance, resembles a golf ball. This visual device is then aligned with the golfer's ball positioned at the face of the putter to assist in lining up the putts and contacting the ball with the sweet spot of the putter.
The heel and toe weighting sections 42 and 44 are each similarly configured and extend rearwardly from the heel and toe of the putting face. The toe section has an end wall 52 defined by generally horizontally extending spaced apart top edge 54 and bottom edge 56. The end wall 52 extends rearwardly terminating at generally vertical rear edge 58. The rear wall 60 is generally triangular defined by edge 58, lower horizontal edge 61 and inner side edge 62. The rear of the top surface of the toe section is defined by an edge 64 which diverges rearwardly and outwardly from a location at the rear of the blade intersecting the cavity wall 45 to the distal end at surface 52. A lower edge 66 extends rearwardly and outwardly from a location intersecting the lower portion of the cavity wall to the point intersecting edges 60 and 62. Edges 64 and 66 may be linear or as shown are preferably slightly arcuate and along with edge 62 define arcuate surface 68 which is somewhat triangular in shape as viewed from the top as seen in FIG. 2.
It will be noted that the continuation or projection of the edges 64 and 66 extend approximately centerline ("CL") which is located on the face of the club.
The heel section 42 is configured similar to the toe section 44. For purposes of convenience, similar components are designated by the same numeral with the letter "A" being appended as applied to the construction of the heel section. The heel section has an end wall 52A which extends rearwardly from the face of the club having an upper edge 54A and a lower edge 56A.
The heel piece end wall 52A is defined by generally horizontally extending, spaced-apart top edge 54A and bottom edge 56A. The end wall extends rearwardly terminating at vertical rear edge 58A. The rear wall 60A is shown as being generally triangular defined by edge 58A, lower horizontal edge 61A and inner side edge 62A. The rear of the top surface of the heel piece is defined by an edge 64A which diverges rearwardly and outwardly from a location at the rear of the blade intersecting the cavity wall 45 to the end surface 60A. A lower edge 66A extends rearwardly and outwardly from a location intersecting the lower portion of the cavity wall to a point intersecting edge 60A. Edges 64A and 66A may be linear or, as shown, may be slightly arcuate and along with edge 62A define an arcuate surface 68A which is somewhat triangular in shape as viewed from the top as seen in FIG. 2. Again, it will be noted that the continuation or projection of the edges 64A and 66A extend approximately to the centerline of the club on the face as indicated. Thus, this configuration provides heel and toe sections each with a center of mass displaced horizontally from the centerline of the club to provide heel/toe weighting which minimizes the effect of the mis-struck putt. Further, the configuration having heel and toe section with outwardly diverging edges 64, 66, 64A, 66A or surfaces 68, 68A which tend to draw and focus the player's vision toward the sweet spot of the club which lies on the face of the putter along a vertical plane extending rearwardly diametrically through the cavity 48.
As best seen in FIG. 3, the bottom surface or sole 32 of the putter is slightly arcuate to minimize the tendency of the golfer to scuff or engage the turf with the club during the putting stroke. Sole curvature may also extend rearwardly for this purpose. In addition, the outer ends of the heel and toe are provided with facets 70 and 70A, respectively, extending rearwardly from the face of the putter. The facets are provided to eliminate sharp points or projections at the opposite ends of the putter further reduce any scuffing tendency during the putting stroke.
The putter of the present invention can be manufactured by different techniques and made from various materials as is customary in production of golf clubs. Typically, the putter would be investment cast from material such as brass, aluminum or steel. The putter may also be machined or milled from these materials. State-of-the-art materials such as various polymers such as Lexan and the like may also be used for the body of the club in which case the face would normally be in the form of a bronze or brass insert attached to the putter body. The putter can be suitably finished such as by sandblasting, tumbled or coated as by powder coating techniques or the like.
In use, the putter of the present invention provides the golfer with the "feel" which is so important to golfers and is often a very subjective feature. In addition, the putter design assists the golfer in aligning the putt and assists the golfer in properly striking the ball at the sweet spot on the putter face. The heel/toe configuration counter-balances or offsets the torque effect applied to the face of the putter if the ball is mis-struck off the sweet spot or centerline of the club.
In aligning the putt, as seen in FIG. 5, the golfer will place the face 25 of the putter adjacent the ball 75 and the golfer's eye will tend to establish the common axis L2 between the center of the ball and the center of the recess 46 which axis may then be aligned with the target cup. The centrally located recess or cavity 46 in the upper surface of the putter has the shape and size of a substantial portion of a golf ball and may include either small depressions or projections which simulate the dimples on the golf ball. The recess then assists in properly aligning the putt. The overall shape or configuration of the putter, particularly the shape of the rear portion of the heel and toe segments will draw the golfer's eye to the sweet spot of the putter which is at the convergence of the one or more edges or surfaces of the heel and toe pieces. The overall symmetrical configuration also to assists the golfer in aligning the putt and properly striking the ball at the sweet spot, particularly in conditions of actual use where these features combine with shadows and shadings.
In addition to providing a unique putter which assists the golfer in aligning and sighting a putt, properly striking the ball at the sweet spot, and which also provides heel/toe weighting, the present invention also provides a putter which is face balanced. "Face balancing" as used herein, refers to the characteristic of a putter which is weight distributed in a manner so that if the shaft of the putter is freely supported on a horizontal surface in a manner so as to allow the head of the putter to freely assume any position, the putter face will assume a precise horizontal position. FIG. 7 illustrates a putter supported in the manner described with the putter assuming a face-balanced position. The support 80 has a platform 82 which supports the shaft 14 and a slotted upright 84 which engages the shaft near the hosel. The putter is free to rotate to a position at rest determined by the weight distribution characteristics of the putter. If face balanced, the face 25 will be in a horizontal plane. In order to confirm precision face balancing, a level or a golf ball 75 may be placed on the face of a properly face-balanced putter and the golf ball will assume a static position, not rolling toward either end of the putter face as seen in FIG. 6. A face-balanced putter is desirable in that it provides a good "feel" to the golfer and also tends to minimize both the tendency to strike the ball off-center and to minimize the results if such a mis-alignment occurs.
While many golf clubs are claimed by their manufacturer to be face balanced, in fact few are truly face balanced. While the weight distribution and design of a gold club head may be selected to achieve face balancing, various irregularities can occur in the manufacture and assembly process which result in the assembled putter not having true face-balancing characteristics. This may be due in part to variations in the density of the material of the putter. Even though a putter configuration is face balanced, the weight distribution due to inconsistency in the density of the material such as a cast bronze can effectively impair the proper balance of the finished product. Further assembly, particularly attachment of the shaft and hosel, if not precise, can also have this same effect.
Accordingly, the present invention provides an assembly method for a putter which allows the assembler to make fine adjustments at the time of final assembly to accommodate for irregularities which would otherwise adversely affect the desired face-balancing feature.
As seen in FIG. 8, the hosel 16 is of the off-set type having an upper end 20 which receives the shaft 14. The upper end of the hosel is provided with a blind bore 22 which receives the lower end of the shaft 14. The angle of the blind bore 22 with respect to the axis of the hosel body 18 is selected to provide the desired club lie which is primarily a matter of use-preference. The shaft 14 for example may be disposed in the bore 22 so as to have an axis generally upright and parallel to the hosel or the shaft may be angled rearwardly. Once the desired shaft angle is determined, the upper end of the hosel is appropriately bored and the lower end of shaft 14 is inserted into the complimentary bore and secured therein as by use of suitable adhesives such as an epoxy completing the shaft and hosel assembly.
The lower end of hosel 16 is provided with axially extending undercut stub shaft 100 which is generally cylindrical having a diameter less than the major diameter of the hosel and a length less than the overall height of the putter. The projection 100 is provided with a threaded counter bore 110 extending axially from the outer end of the stub shaft projection.
As seen in FIGS. 6 and 8, the heel section of the putter is provided with a vertically extending bore 102 at a suitable position spaced from the end of the heel piece and located behind the face 25 of the putter. The bore 102 is selected to snugly receive the stub shaft 100. A small counter bore or recess 106 is provided in the bottom 32 of the putter and axially aligns with bore 102. The bores 102 and 106 are interconnected by smaller diameter opening 104. A fastener, shown as a cap screw 125, secures the assembly. Once the hosel projection 100 is inserted in bore 102, the cap screw is inserted from the opposite side and placed in threaded engagement with threaded bore 100 and tightened.
In the assembly process, it is preferably that a suitable adhesive 112 such as an epoxy is first placed in the bore 102. Then the hosel and cap screw are arranged as described above and the putter shaft horizontally supported as shown in FIG. 7. The relative position of the putter head to the hosel can be manually adjusted until perfect face balancing is achieved at which point the cap screw is finally tightened and the adhesive allowed to completely set. The head of the cap screw may be left exposed or preferably the suitable sealing plug 130 is placed over the cap screw to form a continuous and smooth surface on the underside of the putter. As has been explained with reference to FIG. 5, the hosel configuration and hosel, shaft and head relationships are selected to eliminate visual interference with the putting procedure.
It will be obvious to those skilled in the art to make various changes, alterations and modifications to the golf club and method of making a golf club described herein. To the extent that such changes, alterations and modifications do not depart from the spirit and scope of the appended claims, they are intended to be encompassed therein.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)
Intense encounters with others might be unpleasant, but they could reveal a truth to you or make you understand something you haven't seen before. This is also a time, for some, when a relationship will end. Don't try to prove anything. Just let things unfold.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
Something secretive or behind the scenes troubles you. Your first impulse is to fix it. But some things cannot be easily fixed. And if this applies to a person, they might not want to be fixed! Granted, there is an influence today that makes one want to make over someone else.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Power struggles with someone, especially in a group, will likely occur. But these struggles are simply an indication that there is no agreement. Why not wait a few days because all the energy surrounding this situation will be less intense and more mellow.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
This is a poor day to encounter anyone in authority because their response might overwhelm you. Do not wake the sleeping giant. Postpone this discussion for another day. Don't ask for permission or approval. As someone's grandfather used to say, "Never miss a good chance to shut up."
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
People will easily argue about controversial issues because they feel that there is something personal at stake. And they want to convince you of the wisdom of their point of view. (If you cannot avoid this involvement, start slow and taper off.)
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Arguments about shared property, inheritances, insurance matters or anything that you own jointly with others might arise. Disagreements about who is responsible for what are also likely. Remember that courtesy goes a long way to maintain mutual respect.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Intense discussions with partners and close friends might take place. Someone might want to air their grievances by believing it will clear the air. But will it? Generally it stirs up further bad feelings. If you win all your arguments you end up with no friends.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Breakdowns at work with equipment or machinery are likely. This is also the kind of day where someone might suddenly quit or throw in the towel. Avoid these power struggles, even if you see a better way of doing something. If you suggest your reforms, others will oppose you.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
Parents and people working with children must be patient with them because after all, you are the adult, right? It takes years to cultivate patience, which is surely a maturity. And patience, in most cases, embraces compassion. (Did you know the origin of the word scruples means "to hesitate"?)
Tennis player/broadcaster Pam Shriver (1962) shares your birthday. You are naturally generous and giving. This is because you are a caring nurturer. You value your roots and you value family. You honour your commitments; and are skilled at sensing other people's situations. This year something you've been involved with for about nine years will end or diminish to make room for something new to enter your world.
