GOLF CLUB HEAD
First Claim
1. A wood-type golf club head comprising:
- a striking face including a face center and a center apex;
a bottom portion and a top portion opposite the bottom portion, the top portion including an exterior surface;
a hosel including an imaginary centerline and an imaginary vertical hosel plane containing the imaginary centerline;
a forwardmost point and a rearwardmost point opposite the forwardmost point; and
a volume no less than 150 cc,wherein the golf club head is in a reference position; and
wherein, in an imaginary vertical plane perpendicular to the imaginary vertical hosel plane;
the exterior surface of the top portion includes a continuous straight segment bounded by a first endpoint and a second endpoint rearward of the first endpoint; and
an imaginary infinite straight line is collinear with the segment, but does not penetrate the exterior surface of the top portion.

Abstract
A golf club head includes a striking face having a face center, a bottom portion, a top portion including an exterior surface, a hosel including an imaginary vertical hosel plane, a forwardmost point, and a rearwardmost point. In an imaginary vertical plane perpendicular to the hosel plane and passing through the face center, the exterior surface includes a path having a first point and a second point rearward of the first point. An imaginary infinite straight line passes through the first point and the second point, but does not penetrate the exterior surface. A segment of the imaginary straight line is delimited by the first point and the second point. A maximum distance between the segment and the exterior surface of the top portion is no greater than 0.70 mm and a distance between the first point and the second point is no less than 22 mm.
