  • Patent number: 5795245
    Abstract: An improved neck weighting structure for golf club heads includes a neck, a neck weighting and a weight chamber. The neck extends from a shaft mount towards the lower rim of the sole of the golf club head and straddles the lower rim of the sole to reduce the gravitational center of the club head. The neck weighting projects from the neck near the shaft mount to cause the gravitational center to deviate towards the extended line of the head. The weight chamber accommodates weights of various mass for correcting the position of the gravitational center.
