A golf putter head having a vertically curved putter face with multiple horizontal contact facets. The face has a vertical radius of curvature that is at least 2 inches and no more than 3. 5 inches. The face includes a plurality of horizontal contact facets that are vertically curved to match the vertical radius of curvature. The contact facets, along with the radius of curvature, ensure that no more than two of the horizontal contact facets contact the golf ball when struck by the putter head at a speed of less than 15 miles per hour. The putter produces a horizontal linear contact, or impact, geometry that compensates for misdirection of the path of the putter head throughout the stroke of the putter head. At least one of the horizontal contact facets is located at an elevation above the center of curvature and at least one is located below.

Apparatus for forming a centered bore within an intramedullary canal of a femur in preparation for the implantation of a prosthetic device is disclosed. The apparatus comprises an elongated rigid rod having a handle adjacent its proximal end. The rod includes outwardly projecting fins at its distal end adapted to engage the interior wall of the cortex of the femur, thus centering the bore. Additionally, the rod has a hollow interior which permit suction to be applied to rod's proximal end.

A method is provided for snagging a surgical suture wherein a device is introduced to the interior of the patient's body through a cylindrical cannula. The device includes a resilient loop which collapses as it passes through the cannula. The loop is crimped at its end whereby when a length of suture material is passed through the loop and the device is withdrawn from the patient through the cannula, the suture is snagged within the crimped portion so that it does not escape the loop.

A femoral prosthesis includes a stem tapered from its proximal end to its distal end, the stem having a substantially oval-shaped cross-section along its length. The stem has a twisted waist portion intermediate its ends whereby the major axes of the cross-section on opposite sides of the waist portion are disposed at an angle of approximately 90. degree. with respect to one another so as to conform with the geometry of an intramedullary canal within which the stem is to be received.
