Title: Golf Club Head Having Trip Step Feature

Assignee: TaylorMade Golf Co. Inc.

Abstract: A golf club incorporating a trip step feature located on the crown section. A portion of the trip step is located between a crown apex and the back of the club head and may be continuous or discontinuous. The trip step enables a reduction in aerodynamic drag force.

About Us: Aerodynamic patents require patent attorneys experienced in prosecuting aerodynamic related patent applications, which means identifying and carefully defining the meaning of critical terms so they can survive the attacks that will be launched during patent litigation. In fact patent claims relating to aerodynamic features of a product will often include structural and functional claim limitations, which is a dangerous dance and not to be performed by a patent prosecutor lacking in experience in the interplay.
