Embodiments of putter golf club heads with an elastomer is enclosed herein. Other embodiments and methods may be described and claimed.

Examples of golf clubs and methods to manufacture golf clubs are generally described herein. In one example, a golf club may include a golf club head, a hosel portion, and a shaft. The hosel portion may be positioned rearward of a center of gravity of the body portion. The shaft portion may be coupled to the hosel portion and may have a first shaft portion and a second shaft portion. The first shaft portion may extend from the hosel portion and tilt toward the face portion with no lateral tilt toward a toe portion or a heel portion of the body portion. The second shaft portion may extend from the first shaft portion toward the heel portion and toward a face portion of the body portion. Other examples of golf club heads and methods to manufacture the same may be described and claimed.

A co-forged iron type golf club is disclosed. More specifically, the present invention discloses a co-forged iron type golf club with the body portion made out of a first material and at least one weight adjustment portion monolithically encased within the body portion of the co-forged iron type golf club head without the need for secondary attachment or machining operations. The present invention also includes a combination of lightweight and heavy density weight adjustment portions that could be introduced towards the final forging step of the co-forging process, allowing for more flexibility in the selection of materials.

A golf club head includes a striking face having a face center and defining a face plane. A vertical center plane is perpendicular to the face plane and passes through the face center. The golf club head further includes a hosel configured to receive a shaft and defining a hosel axis. The golf club head mass is between about 250 g and 320 g, a loft, L, is no less than 39°, a club head center of gravity is spaced rearward from the face plane by a distance, D5, such that D5≤7.69 mm−0.074 mm/°*L, and spaced from the vertical center plane by a distance, D7, that is no greater than 5 mm. A moment of inertia, Iyy, measured about an axis extending in the heel to toe direction and passing through the center of gravity, is no less than 1000 g*cm.sup.2.

Golf club shaft assemblies with removable counterbalance weights are disclosed herein. In each embodiment, a shaft sleeve is secured within a butt end of a shaft and a weight is removably affixed to the shaft sleeve via locking structures, magnets, and/or spring devices.

Examples of golf club heads and methods to manufacture golf club heads are generally described herein. In one example, a body portion of a golf club head may include a front portion. A face portion may be coupled to the front portion. The face portion may include a central strike portion and a perimeter. A plurality of projections may extend from the face portion to provide a ball striking surface for impacting a golf ball. The plurality of projections may be aligned in one or more directions across the face portion and may increase in size in one or more directions from the central strike portion to the perimeter of the face portion. Other examples and examples may be described and claimed.

Embodiments of a co-molded putter-type golf club head comprising a high-density chassis made of a first material and a low-density putter-type body made of a second material. The first material can be a high density metal (i.e., steel or tungsten, but not limited to). The second material can be a low density thermoplastic composite (i.e., polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), polyamide (PA), but not limited to). The chassis comprises a flow aperture, and one or more interlocking features. The putter-type body portion encases the entirety of the at least one interlocking feature. Further, the putter-type body encapsulates the chassis such that the body extends through, and completely fills the flow aperture, to interlock the body and chassis, and thus form the club head. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.

A golf club with a multi-material face is disclosed herein. More specifically, the golf club head in accordance with the present invention has a multi-material striking face portion that is made out of a backing layer having a frontal pocket, made out of titanium, and an insert, made out of a composite material, adapted to be inserted into the frontal pocket. The frontal pocket and the insert could have complementary dovetail shaped undercut features to create a mechanical bond between these two components.
