Patent number: 9387374Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, a set of golf club heads is disclosed. The set includes golf club heads with peripheral weights. The dimensions and configuration of at least the peripheral weights are changed from club-to-club along the set so that the center of gravity rises from the long irons to the short irons. By raising the center of gravity from the long irons to the short irons, a golfer will see a peak trajectory height along a line for each club head that is substantially more consistent along that line throughout the set than prior art clubs provide.Type: GrantFiled: October 3, 2014Date of Patent: July 12, 2016Assignee: Acushnet CompanyInventors: Charles E. Golden, Jeffrey A. Harmet, Daniel Stone, Richard M. Nelson
