Patent Images
1. A golf club head comprising:
- a body having a front section,a first restrictor mechanism comprising a first restrictor and coupled to a first portion of the body; and
a weight comprising a first end coupled to the first restrictor mechanism and coupled to the body;
wherein;
the first restrictor comprises a first stiffness; and
the first stillness is configured to resist a deformation of the first, restrictor by the first end of the weight in response to an impact at a first zone of the front section.

30. A method of manufacturing a golf club head, the method comprising:
-
forming a body; providing a weight; providing a first tab coupler coupled to a first region of the body and comprising a first tab; and coupling a first end of the weight to the first tab; wherein the weight restricts a rotational tendency of the body upon an interaction between the first end of the weight and the first tab responsive to an impact at a first portion of the body of the golf club head. - View Dependent Claims (31)

32. A golf club comprising:
-
a face; a housing; a golf club shaft coupled to the housing, a first restrictor coupled to a first section within the housing; a second restrictor coupled to the first section within the housing; a weight comprising a first end between the first restrictor and the second restrictor within the housing; and a third restrictor coupled to a second section within the housing and to the weight; wherein; the second restrictor comprises a second stiffness; the first restrictor comprises a first stiffness greater than the second stiffness; the first stiffness is configured to resist a distortion of the first restrictor by the first end of the weight in response to an impact at a first portion of the face of the golf club head; and the second stiffness is configured to allow a distortion of the second restrictor by the first end of the weight in response to an impact at a second portion of the face of the golf club head. - View Dependent Claims (33, 34, 35, 36)
