  • Publication number: 20230181978
    Abstract: In one or more arrangements, a golf club head having improved sole geometry is provided. The golf club head includes a striking face portion located at a frontal portion of the golf club head, a topline located at an upper portion of the golf club head, a heel portion located at a proximal end of the golf club head, a toe portion located at a distal end of the golf club head opposite the heel portion, and a sole located at a lower portion of the golf club head. The golf club head is adapted to receive a shaft. The golf club has a cross section having forward camber with a radius of curvature is less than or equal to a sole width of the sole and that is greater than or equal to a leading edge height of the golf club head.

  • Publication number: 20220249920
    Abstract: An improved golf club head is provided having a striking face portion, a topline, a heel portion adapted to receive a shaft, a toe portion, and a sole. The improved golf club head includes port holes extending from one or more cavities to allow insertion of a polymer and metal shot into the golf club head. The insertion of a polymer and metal shot facilitates increasing weight and/or biasing weight distribution of the golf club head. The improved golf club head may be manufactured by forging the main body of the golf club head, machining a recess into the main body, and attaching an insert in the recess. The recess forms a cavity and allows a port hole to facilitate insertion of the polymer and metal shot into the golf club head. After insertion, the polymer is cured to form the golf club head.

The golf club head is adapted to receive a shaft. The golf club has a cross section having a sole width less than 15 mm and a camber area percentage greater than 40% (and in some arrangements greater than or equal to approximately 59%). In some arrangements, the cross section additionally exhibits trailing edge relief.

  • Publication number: 20140221123
    Abstract: A golf club apparatus includes a shaft, a grip and a head. The head is attached to the shaft. The head further includes a main body having a ball contacting surface or club face; a heel portion, a toe portion and a sole portion. The shaft attached to the main body proximate the heel portion and the toe portion is distal from an attachment point of the shaft. The sole portion corresponds to the bottom of the main body and is positioned between the toe portion and the heel portion and the leading edge to the trailing edge. A leading edge is an edge formed at the intersection of the club face and the sole portion. The sole portion has a plurality of substantially triangularly shaped or v-shaped grooves therein with axes. Each of the axes is between 0 degrees and 180 degrees to the plane of the club face. This angle is also combined with varying levels of bounce, camber, radius and sole width creating various options within a certain degree of a wedge or iron.
