Abstract: A golf club head (10) can include a translucent portion (11) having a front face (21) oriented to contact a golf ball (2) and a top face (22) oriented to be viewed by a golfer. A translucent path allows light entering the front face to pass through to the top face. A reflective surface can be formed at a 45 degree angle to both the front and top faces to facilitate such passage. A number of alignment guides (31-34) can provide an iron sight-type visual feedback to the golfer so that the club head can be oriented in the proper position. A highly dense material (40) such as tungsten can be secured to the back end of the head a distance from the front face to improve inertial properties during a swing.
