Abstract
A golf club having a metal wood club head including a toe, a heel, a club face, a sole, a rear profile, and a top profile shape. The club head is shaped to increase the moment of inertia of the club head. In one embodiment, a rear portion of the club head is truncated such that a top profile maximum width of the toe side and a top profile maximum width of the heel side are larger than a transverse top profile centerline width of the club head. The sole of the club head may have a sole recess which extends from the truncated region and through a portion of a center of the sole. In another embodiment, the wood club head approximates an elongated rectangular shape.
