20220395733 · 2022-12-15 ·

A golf club head includes: a striking face including a front surface configured to strike a golf ball and a rear surface opposite to the front surface; a periphery portion surrounding and extending rearwards from the striking face; a cavity at least partially enclosed by the striking face and the periphery portion; a support arm extending at least partially through the cavity from the periphery portion and being spaced apart from the rear surface of the striking face; a first damping element between a first side of the support arm and the rear surface of the striking face; and a second damping element on a second side of the support arm opposite to the first side of the support arm.

Multi-component golf club head

Embodiments of a golf club head comprising a first component and a second component that are coupled together to enclose a hollow interior are disclosed herein. The first component comprises at least a striking face, a striking face return, and a rear extension. In some embodiments, the first component also comprises a weight channel at a rear end and one or more braces that attach to the striking face return and the rear extension. The second component comprises a crown portion, a sole toe portion, and a sole heel portion. The density of the second component is less than the density of the first component. In some embodiments, the first component mass is 85% to 96% of a mass of the golf club head.

GOLF CLUB HEADS AND METHODS TO MANUFACTURE GOLF CLUB HEADS

Embodiments of golf club heads and methods to manufacture golf club heads are generally described herein. In one example, a golf club head includes a body portion having a front portion, a rear portion, a toe portion, a heel portion, a bottom portion, an interior cavity, and a top portion having an opening to the interior cavity. The golf club head also includes a crown portion attached to the top portion and covering the opening in the top portion and enclosing the interior cavity. The crown portion may include an inner composite layer defining an inner surface of the crown portion, an outer composite layer defining an outer surface of the crown portion, and an inner crown portion layer attached to the inner surface. The inner crown portion layer is configured to dampen vibration of the golf club head. Other examples and embodiments may be described and claimed.

GOLF CLUB HAVING AN ADJUSTABLE WEIGHT ASSEMBLY

A golf club head includes: a body including: a striking face defining a striking face plane that is tangential to an outermost surface of the striking face; and a sole; a recessed channel formed in the body and defining a path; and a weight assembly including a weight at least partially disposed within the recessed channel and configured to be positioned in at least a first position on the path and at a second position on the path, wherein a first distance is defined by a minimum distance between the weight at the first position and the striking face plane, wherein a second distance is defined by a minimum distance between the weight at the second position and the striking face plane, and wherein the first distance and the second distance are substantially equal.

Golf club head having a magnetic adjustable weighting system

A golf club head includes a club body having a crown opposite a sole, a toe end opposite a heel end, a back end, and a hosel. A first magnet is coupled to the club body. A second magnet selectively engages the first magnet, such that in a first configuration the first and second magnets attract, and in a second configuration the first and second magnets do not attract, wherein the second magnet is configured to rotate relative to the first magnet between the first configuration and the second configuration.

A co-forged iron type golf club is disclosed. More specifically, the present invention discloses an iron type golf club head from a pre-form billet that already contains two or more materials before the actual forging process resulting in a multi-material golf club head that doesn't require any post manufacturing operations such as machining, welding, swaging, gluing, and the like. The resultant golf club head may be capable of achieving center of gravity locations previously unachievable without utilizing this co-forging technique. The resultant golf club head may be used to create a set of golf club heads with center of gravity locations that are more advantageous throughout a set of golf clubs.
