Abstract
A golf putter includes a rigid mid-section and two parallel, opposing tone-generating tines on either side. The tone generators are each held at the toe of the club head, being formed as an integral extension of a central member by cuts through the club head. Thus, a volume and quality of sound can be produced from a relatively thick striking face plate which has minimum flexure to produce accurate golf putting. Because the structure is symmetrical, it is reversible for use by both left and right-handed golfers. The sound-producing tines may alternately both be placed on the rear side of the club head away from the striking surface. In this case, the sound-producing tines may be of different lengths so each tine produces different tonal frequencies that are preferably mutual tonal harmonics.
