First Claim
1. A wood-type golf club head comprising:
- a striking wall;
a top portion;
a bottom portion comprising a club head wall portion, a first pair of ribs projecting from the wall portion, and a second pair of ribs projecting from the wall portion, wherein the first pair of ribs and the wall portion form a first elongate recess defining a first weight path and wherein the second pair of ribs and the wall portion form a second elongate recess defining a second weight path;
a first weight element translatable along the first weight path and comprising a first first weight portion, a first second weight portion, and a first fastener, the first pair of ribs each being interposed between the first first weight portion and the first second weight portion such that the first first weight portion is located proximate the club head wall portion and the first second weight portion is located distal the club head wall portion, the first fastener being configured to secure the first weight element to the bottom portion by rotating independently of the first first and first second weight portions to compress the first first and first second weight portions against the first pair of ribs; and
a second weight element translatable along the second weight path and comprising a second first weight portion, a second second weight portion, and a second fastener, the second pair of ribs each being interposed between the second first weight portion and the second second weight portion such that the second first weight portion is located proximate the club head wall portion and the second second weight portion is located distal the club head wall portion, the second fastener being configured to secure the second weight element to the bottom portion by rotating independently of the second first and second second weight portions to compress the second first and second second weight portions against the second pair of ribs.

Abstract
A wood-type golf club head includes first and second ribs projecting from a bottom club head wall portion, the wall portion, the first rib, and the second rib forming an elongate recess defining a weight path. A weight element is translatable along the weight path and includes a first weight portion, a second weight portion, and a fastener, the first and second ribs each being interposed between the first weight portion and the second weight portion such that the first weight portion is located proximate the club head wall portion and the second weight portion is located distal the club head wall portion. The second weight portion has a contact surface that includes a recessed region, and when the weight element is in a secured position, at least a portion of the first weight portion is located within the recessed region.
