Abstract: In one aspect, the invention provides a face for a golf club head. In one embodiment, the face includes an upper portion and a lower portion, wherein the lower portion has a lower toe portion located towards the toe of the golf club head, a lower heel portion located towards the heel of the golf club head, and a center portion extending from the lower toe portion to the lower heel portion, wherein the lower toe portion and the lower heel portion have a first substantially uniform thickness, the center portion and the upper portion have a second substantially uniform thickness, the second substantially uniform thickness is greater than the first substantially uniform thickness, the first substantially uniform thickness is in a range of about 0.055 uniform thickness is in a range of about 0.070 inches to about 0.13 inches.

Abstract: A golf club head for hitting a golf ball farther than existing golf club heads and having a sole, a crown, and a face that includes a lower portion and an upper portion. The sole and crown are cast thinner than most other club heads to promote deformation when striking a golf ball. A parabolic shaped rise in both the crown and sole provide increased lateral strength while aiding in reducing the deformation of the ball at impact. The lower portion of the face has two end portions, and a center portion with the end portions having a first thickness. The center portion and the upper portion of the face have a second thickness that is thicker than the first thickness. In addition, the face includes a channel disposed around its peripheral and having a thickness that is thinner than either the first or second thickness. The overall effect of this invention is to reduce deformation of the golf ball at impact, which reduces the energy lost as heat in the golf ball, resulting in farther drives.

Abstract: A golf club head for hitting a golf ball farther than existing golf club heads and having a cast sole and a crown joined seamlessly as one piece with an opening for a face plate to be fitted into the body, and a face plate fabricated from sheet metal, precision cut by laser and precision formed in a die under extremely high pressure that includes a lower portion and an upper portion. The sole and crown part of the body are cast thinner than most other club heads to promote deformation when striking a golf ball. A parabolic shaped rise in both the crown and sole provide increased lateral strength while aiding in reducing the deformation of the ball at impact. The lower portion of the face has two end portions, and a center portion with the end portions having a first thickness. The center portion and the upper portion of the face have a second thickness that is thicker than the first thickness. In addition, the face plate is welded or bonded into a front opening of the cast body.
