Abstract
A golf club head has a metal base, face and tubular neck and a carbon-fiber cover. The face extends up vertically from one edge of the base. The tubular neck is integrally connected to the base and the face. The cover is made of a carbon-fiber material and is securely attached to the base and the face. Because the carbon-fiber material is lighter than metal, the area of the face is enlarged. In addition, the shock absorbing effect of the golf head club is also improved.
