Abstract: A golf club having a club head with a striking plate having a thickness in the range of 0.010 to 0.250 inch is disclosed herein. The club head may be composed of three pieces, a face, a sole and a crown. Each of the pieces may be composed of a titanium material. The striking plate of the club head may have an aspect ratio less than 1.7. The striking plate may also have concentric regions of thickness with the thickness portion in the center. The club head may be composed of a titanium material, have a volume in the range of 175 cubic centimeters to 400 cubic centimeters, a weight in the range of 165 grams to 300 grams, and a striking plate surface area in the range of 4.00 square inches to 7.50 square inches. The golf club head may also have a coefficient of restitution greater than 0.8 under test conditions such as the USGA test conditions specified pursuant to Rule 4-1e, Appendix II, of the Rules of Golf for 1998-1999.

Abstract: An iron-type golf club head (20) includes a body (22) having a front wall (28) with a ball-striking surface (40). The body (22) further includes a rear surface (54) that has external rear cavity (56) formed therein. The rear surface (54) includes an upper portion (58) and a lower portion (60). The upper portion (60) is separated from the lower portion (59) by the external rear cavity (56) and at least one groove (64, 66). The lower portion (60) of the rear surface (54) has a notch (62) formed therein, which communicates with the external rear cavity (56). The golf club head (20) preferably has high moments of inertia Izz and Ixx.
