First Claim
1. A wood type club which comprises a hollow head provided with a face part, a crown part, a sole part, and a back part and in which a hosel is formed on a heel side of the crown part so as to be connected to a shaft,wherein a toe-side part and a heel-side part located between the crown part and the sole part of the head are respectively provided with at least one concave groove opened outward in a horizontal direction and extending from the face part to the back part in a longitudinal direction so as to guide an air stream to the head in case of a swing action, andwherein a whole part or a part of the concave groove is provided with a curved part bulging outwardly so that an angle in which a concave groove bottom formed from an inlet of the concave groove to an inside thereof is inclined inward with respect to a line perpendicular to the face part is smaller than an angle in which a line connecting an inlet of the concave groove bottom and an outlet thereof is inclined inward with respect to the line perpendicular to the face part.
