a sole in generally opposed relation to the topline, at least a portion of the sole resting on the ground plane when the golf club head is in the reference position;
a striking face extending between the topline and the sole;
a rear face in generally opposed relation to the striking face;
a rear cavity extending from the rear face toward the striking face; and
a sole cavity extending into the sole;
at least one rear plate removably secured within the rear cavity along a first axis;
at least one sole plate removably secured within the sole cavity;
a center of gravity vertically spaced from the virtual ground plane by between 13.5 mm and 16.0 mm.

Abstract
An iron-type golf club head assembly kit including a club head main body, a first sole component, and a second sole component interchangeably associable with the main body. When the first sole component is associated with the main body, the main body and the first sole component form a first club head comprising a sole surface having a first parting line, formed between the first sole component and the main body, and a first sole contour. When the second sole component is associated with the main body, the main body and the second sole component form a second club head comprising a second sole surface having a second parting line, formed between the second sole component and the main body, and a second sole contour that differs from the first sole contour.
