The side part includes a heel-side small-thickness side part formed at a heel side, a toe-side small-thickness side part formed at a toe side, and a large-thickness side part which is formed at a portion of the side part other than the heel-side small-thickness side part and the toe-side small-thickness side part and has a thickness greater than thickness of the side parts.

Abstract: A hollow golf club head includes: a metal head main body including a hollow section; and a weight formed from magnesium or a magnesium alloy in at least one of a toe side, a heel side, a back side and a sole of the metal head main body.

Abstract: A metal golf club head includes: a metal head main body; and an anticorrosion screw that is formed from a magnesium alloy and fastened to predetermined location on the metal head main body.

Abstract: The present invention provides a golf club head capable of increasing carry on average even if being used by an amateur golfer who is prone to hit a ball by varied hit points of clubface. A golf club head 1 has a face part 2, a crown part 3, a sole part 4, a side part 5, and a hosel part 6, which are formed of titanium or a titanium alloy. A thick part 10 is provided near the central portion in the toe-heel direction of the rear portion of the crown part 3. The distance a between a foremost portion 1 Of the thick part 10 and the foremost portion of the crown part 3 is 20 to 80% of the total length L of the crown part 3.

Abstract: A golf club head includes a metallic head body 1 having a cavity 10 therein and an opening 8 being formed in a face part 2 therethrough to the cavity, and a metallic face plate 9 welded to the opening.

Abstract: This invention provides a hollow golf club head having a face portion, a crown portion, a sole portion, and a side portion, and comprising a viscoelastic body to be mounted in at least one of the face portion, crown portion, sole portion, and side portion. The viscoelastic body is mounted in a part of a portion where the viscoelastic body is to be mounted, the part corresponding to an antinode of a primary vibration mode.

Abstract: This invention provides a hollow golf club head having a viscoelastic body, wherein the viscoelastic body is made by mixing a plurality of types of viscoelastic materials with loss coefficients the temperature dependences of which are different.

Abstract: This invention provides a hollow golf club head having a face portion, a crown portion, a sole portion, and a side portion. The head has 0.3 to 0.6-mm thick thin-walled regions on the face side of the crown portion and the face side of the side portion, a medium-thick-walled region thicker than the thin-walled region of the crown portion at the back of the thin-walled region, and a high-rigidity region on the face side of the sole portion.

Abstract: This invention provides a hollow golf club head including a fixing member which includes a shaft body formed with a threaded portion at one end, and a head portion at the other end of the shaft body, a viscoelastic body having an opening through which the shaft body extends, a recess portion formed in a circumferential wall of the golf club head and in which the viscoelastic body is disposed, and a screw hole formed in a bottom portion of the recess portion and threadably engages with the threaded portion. The viscoelastic body is fixed between the head portion and the bottom portion by threadably engaging the threaded portion with the screw hole.

Abstract: This invention provides a golf club head comprising a head main body, a face plate fixed to a front surface side of the head main body to form a face surface, a cavity portion formed in the head main body and open to a face plate side, and a viscoelastic body inserted in a compressed state in a space formed by the cavity portion and the face plate. An end face on the face plate side of a circumferential wall defining the cavity portion comprises a contacting portion ontacting with a rear surface of the face plate, and a non-contacting portion spaced apart from the rear surface of the face plate to form a gap communicating with the cavity portion between the non-contacting portion and the rear surface of the face plate.
