Zusammenfassung:The hockey stick and golf club of the present invention is generally formed of a shaft and a blade. The shaft has a grip at one end and a hosel a t the opposite end. Similarly, the blade has a heel at one end and a toe at th e opposite end. An incrementally locking indicia assembly rotatably attaches t he heel end of the blade to the hosel of the shaft. The indicia assembly includ es a scale for indicating the angle of the blade to the shaft. To adjust and customize this angle, the blade may be incrementally rotated up or down relevant to the shaft and locked into location for a trial skate by a hockey player or swing by a golfer. The lie angle of the blade may be adjusted afte r each trial skate to achieve maximum blade contact with a hockey puck or golf ball and increase shooting accuracy.
