First Claim
Patent Images
1. A golf club head of a hollow shell structure, comprising:
- a first member that includes titanium-based metal material and includes a face portion and an edge portion continuous with the face portion, anda metal plate that is separate and spaced apart from the first member, extends in a direction, which is different from a toe-heel direction of the golf club head, and includes at least a part of sole portion;
wherein;
H≦
0.05V+7.5where V denotes volume of the golf club head in cc unit, and H denotes height of center of gravity of the golf club head in mm unit;
wherein the metal plate is made of a metal material, which is larger in specific gravity than the titanium-based metal material; and
wherein a gap of 4 mm to 12 mm is formed between a front side of the metal plate and the first member.

Abstract
A golf club head includes a front body formed of a titanium-based metal material, an FRP body, a metallic sole plate, and a weight member. The front body has a face portion, a metal sole portion, a metal side portion (toe), a metal crown portion, a metal side portion (heel), and a hosel portion. A slight gap is formed between a front side of the sole plate and the metal sole portion. Preferably, the front body is made of a titanium alloy, while the sole plate is made of stainless steel. The height of center of gravity (mm) and the head volume V have a relationship of H≦0.05V+7.5.
