Golf club with polymeric insert and removeable weight
A golf club head includes a face, a crown, a sole, and defines a bore that is configured to receive and to selectively retain an elongate weight. The bore is aligned on a longitudinal axis that intersects the face. An elongate weight is insertable into the bore. The elongate weight is rotatable between a first angular position and a second angular position. The golf club head can further include a compliant stop positioned to contact a protrusion of the elongate weight, such that a torque threshold must be overcome to rotate the elongate weight.
GOLF CLUB HAVING AN ADJUSTABLE WEIGHT ASSEMBLY
A golf club head includes: a body having an outer surface; a recessed channel formed in the outer surface; and a weight assembly including: a weight at least partially disposed within the recessed channel and configured to move therein, a cover configured to engage with the body such that the cover at least partially covers the recessed channel; and a fastener selectively movable along a fastener axis, and configured to lockingly engage with an end of the cover.
GOLF CLUB HEAD WITH IMPROVED INERTIA PERFORMANCE
A golf club head includes: a body including: a striking face having a lower leading edge and an opposite upper topline edge, and a sole extending rearward from the lower leading edge, wherein the striking face and the sole form at least part of an outer surface of the body; a weight chamber formed in the outer surface; and a weight including a heavy portion and a light portion, being positionable in the weight chamber with a first orientation, and being positionable in the weight chamber with a second orientation that is rotated from the first orientation about a first axis.
Golf club head
Golf club heads are described herein, and in one embodiment including a body with an exterior surface defining a first body volume of at least about 400 cm.sup.3. The body has a bottom portion, a top portion, a front portion, and a back portion. A face positioned at the front portion of the body and is configured to receive an impact. A top portion silhouette profile located along a perimeter of the top portion is further described. The top portion silhouette profile defines the outer bounds of the top portion in an X-direction and Y-direction. At least one indentation can be located on the bottom portion below the crown silhouette profile. The removal of the at least one indentation from the bottom portion can create a second body volume that is at least 12 cm.sup.3 larger than the first body volume.
Golf club heads and methods to manufacture golf club heads
Embodiments of golf club heads, golf clubs, and methods to manufacture golf club heads and golf clubs are generally described herein. In one example, a golf club heady ma include a hollow body portion having a toe portion with a toe portion edge, a heel portion with a heel portion edge, a back portion with a back wall portion, a top portion with a top portion edge, a sole portion with a sole portion edge, and a front portion. A face portion may be coupled to the front portion and include a front surface and a back surface. The body portion includes a face support portion including a composite material and coupled to the back surface of the face portion. The face support portion may include at least one reinforcement portion. Other examples and embodiments may be described and claimed.
GOLF CLUB HEAD WITH IMPROVED INERTIA PERFORMANCE
A golf club head that is capable improving on the inertia properties of a golf club head all while also improving the Center of Gravity (CG) location is disclosed herein. More specifically, the golf club head in accordance with the present invention achieves a relative low Moment of Inertia (MOI) about the Z-axis (MOI-Z) as well as a relatively low MOI about the Shaft-axis (MOI-SA), all combined with a high MOI about the X and Y-axis (MOI-X and MOI-Y) and maintaining a consistently and relatively low CG location measured along a direction tangent to the hosel axis along the X-Y plane (CG-B).
MULTI-COMPONENT GOLF CLUB HEAD
Embodiments of wood-type club heads comprising one or more components are described herein. The wood-type club head comprises a first, metallic component, and a second, non-metallic component. The first component comprises the load bearing structure that forms the striking face, and portions of the crown, the heel, the toe, and the sole. The second component comprises a lightweight structure that wraps around the first component to form portions of the crown, the heel, the toe, and the sole. The first component comprises mass pads and receives removable weights to adjust the weight properties of the club head. The two-component design allows for additional discretionary mass redistribution to improve center of gravity location and moment of inertia.
GOLF CLUB HEAD WITH IMPROVED PERFORMANCE
A golf club head with an improved Center of Gravity (CG) location is disclosed. More specifically, the present invention relates to a metalwood type golf club head with improved performance via shifting the CG towards a location that reduces spin, at the same time, without sacrificing launch angle and the forgiveness of the golf club head. This golf club head may generally have a unique construction capable of achieving a low and forward CG location that is less than 40 mm from the face center along a Z-axis, a CG height that is no more than 2 mm above the neutral axis, and a MOI-Y of greater than about 4,000 g-cm.sup.2.
GOLF CLUB HEAD WITH HOSEL HOLE COVER
A golf club head with a hosel hole cover that helps improve the performance of the golf club head is disclosed. More specifically, the present invention relates to a golf club head having a hosel hole cover at a bottom portion of an interchangeable connection system that not only provides improved performance of the golf club head by strategically utilizing an existing opening to adjust the weighting of a golf club head, but it also improves the aerodynamics of the golf club head by eliminating undesirable recesses that could be detrimental to the aerodynamics of a golf club head.
Club head with sole mass element and related method
Embodiments of a golf club head comprising a club head body and a sole mass element are described herein. The club head comprises a center of gravity height measured between a club head center of gravity and at least one keel point. The club head comprises a face surface, wherein the face surface defines a face height. The club head defines a ratio of club head center of gravity height to face height, wherein the ratio is less than or equal to approximately 0.36.
