Abstract: A golf club, which can increase the carry of a ball without increasing the shaft length, has a hollow head in which are mounted a weight and a mechanism for resiliently pressing the weight against the inner surface of the face of the head. In one embodiment, during a forward swing of the club, the weight separates while compressing a spring due to static inertia. When the head impacts the ball, the face dents momentarily and the weight hits against the dented face.
