Abstract: A method is adapted to manufacture a club head with a bending portion, a hosel, and a head face. The method includes preparing a metal blank having an engagement segment, a head segment, and a neck segment. The method includes a bending and pressing step for pressing the head segment and the engagement segment, thereby forming a bending contour serving as the bending portion and forming a face region and a waste unit protruding therefrom. The method includes a punching step for punching the neck segment, thereby forming a peripheral wall with a trough which serves as the hosel. The method includes a trimming step for flattening the face region and removing the waste unit, thereby achieving the head face. The punching step is conducted before or after the bending and pressing step. The method is executed in a simplified manner and reduces production costs and defective products.

Abstract: A split bushing alignment assembly comprising an air tube and a mount having one or more vents leading to a bushing receiver disposed as a hole sized and shaped to receive a split bushing. A stream of air from an air supply, typically compressed air, enters the tube and exits the vent into the bushing receiver. When a split bushing having a gap falls into the bushing receiver, the stream of air rotates the split bushing if the gap is in a same location as the stream of air from the vent. The gap of the split bushing is thus rotated by the stream of air such that when the split bushing is installed, the gap is not located in a known inspection area of a bushing inspection machine. A method of use is also provided.
