  • Publication number: 20240108952
    Abstract: A putter-type golf club head, when oriented in a reference position, includes a main body, a weight insert, a center of gravity CG with a center of gravity depth CGD, a golf club head length L from a forwardmost extent of the golf club head to its rearwardmost extent, and a ratio of CGD/L no more than 0.30. The main body includes a front portion having a face defining a face plane, a rear portion extending rearwardly from the front portion, a heel, and a toe opposite the heel. The weight insert, which is denser than the main body, includes an insert CG that is located rearwardly from the face plane by a distance no greater than 1.0 cm.

  • Patent number: 11148018
    Abstract: A golf club head includes a loft no less than 40 degrees; a striking face; a virtual center plane that is vertical and perpendicular to a virtual striking face plane and includes a face center; a rear face; and a recess. The recess extends in a heel-to-toe direction along an upper sole surface and has a depth that varies in the heel-to-toe direction such that a first depth corresponds with a first location heel-ward of the face center and a second depth corresponds with a second location toe-ward of the face center, the first depth being no less than 10 mm and greater than the second depth by at least 5 mm. An insert is received in the recess. And a center of gravity of the golf club head is spaced no greater than 5.0 mm from the virtual center plane measured in the heel-to-toe direction.
