Summary for Patent: 8,074,495

Title:	Waggle weight and other preparatory period equipment measurements
Abstract:	Disclosed is fitting at least one equipment measurement to a performer of a pre-determined activity to improve performance. Said equipment measurement is fitted via an analysis of pre-swing or pre-action movement or position, before the swing or action of the pre-determined activity is determined to begin. Said fitted equipment measurement may be used to fit at least one further equipment measurement as applicable based on a performance analysis of said performer. The fitting of golf equipment in such manner is particularly disclosed, including fitting a golf club measurement of a pre-swing rotation point location (waggle weight point) and using said measurement to further fit a golf club measurement (waggle weight) about said rotation point location based on golfer performance. Disclosed is making golf clubs or other equipment using the at least one fitted equipment measurement. Also disclosed is the producing and using of devices to aid in fitting said equipment measurement(s) and making said equipment, including a test golf club to aid in measuring a golf club pre-swing rotation point location and a waggle weight scale with a fulcrum, its fulcrum placed at a location corresponding to a fitted golf club pre-swing rotation point location.

Patent Claims:	1. A method of fitting an equipment measurement existing and measurable only during a preparatory period of a predetermined activity, comprising: analyzing at least one preparatory movement or position of at least one performer or performer representation of a predetermined activity; and fitting at least one preparatory period equipment measurement via the analysis, whereby better equipment used in the performance of said predetermined activity can be produced using the at least one preparatory period measurement. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the predetermined activity is golf and the at least one equipment measurement is a preparatory period golf club measurement. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the predetermined activity is baseball and the at least one equipment measurement is a preparatory period baseball bat measurement. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the at least one equipment measurement is a rotation point location disposed about at least one preparatory movement of said at least one performer or performer representation. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein said fit at least one preparatory period equipment measurement is used to fit at least one further equipment measurement via at least one performance analysis of said at least one performer or performer representation. 6. The method of claim 5, wherein at least one piece of equipment used in said predetermined activity is produced using the at least one fitted preparatory period equipment measurement or further fitted equipment measurement or at least one part of said equipment thereof is produced such that the at least one fitted equipment measurement is produced on said at least one piece of equipment. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein a computer-implemented process is produced or used to aid in determining the at least one equipment measurement. 8. The method of claim 6, wherein at least one device suitable for measuring said at least one preparatory period equipment measurement or further equipment measurement is produced or used to help in fitting said at least one equipment measurement or producing said at least one piece of equipment or part of said equipment thereof. 9. A method of producing a device to help fit at least one equipment measurement only existing during and measurable via an analysis of at least one preparatory movement or position of at least one performer or performer representation of a predetermined activity, comprising: obtaining at least one sensor means suitable for providing an analysis of at least one predetermined equipment measurement existing and measurable during at least one preparatory movement or position of at least one performer or performer representation of a predetermined activity, and; operably coupling said at least one sensor means to a device suitable for determining said at least one predetermined equipment measurement, whereby said method produces a device to help in fitting at least one equipment measurement existing and measurable only during at least one preparatory movement or position of at least one performer or performer representation of a predetermined activity. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein the at least one sensor means is portably coupled to said device. 11. The method of claim 9, wherein the at least one sensor means is permanently coupled to said device. 12. The method of claim 8, wherein said at least one device is a device suitable for measuring an equipment rotation point location only existing and measurable during said preparatory period. 13. The method of claim 8, wherein said at least one device is a scale with a fulcrum, the fulcrum placed at a location corresponding to a fit equipment rotation point location only existing and measurable during said preparatory period. 14. A method of fitting a golf club measurement existing and measurable only during a pre-swing, comprising: analyzing at least one pre-swing movement or position of at least one golfer or golfer representation: and determining at least one pre-swing golf club measurement via the analysis, whereby a better golf club can be made using said at least one pre-swing measurement. 15. The method of claim 14, wherein a computer-implemented process is produced or used to help in determining the at least one pre-swing golf club measurement. 16. The method of claim 14, wherein said determined at least one pre-swing golf club measurement is used to determine at least one further golf club measurement via at least one performance analysis of said at least one golfer or golfer representation. 17. The method of claim 16, wherein at least one golf club is made using the at least one determined pre-swing golf club measurement or further golf club measurement or at least one golf club part thereof is made such that the at least one determined golf club measurement is produced on said at least one golf club. 18. The method of claim 17, wherein at least one device suitable for measuring said at least one pre-swing golf club measurement or further golf club measurement is produced or used to aid in determining said at least one golf club measurement or making said at least one golf club or golf club part thereof. 19. The method of claim 18, wherein said at least one device is a golf club, test golf club, or golf club substitute suitable for measuring a golf club rotation point location only existing and measurable during said pre-swing. 20. The method of claim 18, wherein said at least one device is a scale with a fulcrum, the fulcrum placed at a location corresponding to a determined golf club rotation point location only existing and measurable during said pre-swing.
