Multi-piece golf club head with improved inertia
First Claim
1. An iron-type golf club head, comprising:
- a first body member including a face and a rear surface, wherein at least a portion of the rear surface has a concave profile extending from a heel of the club head to a toe of the club head;
a damping member coupled to the rear surface within the concave profile; and
a weight member coupled to said damping member;
wherein the club head has a sole formed of said first body member, said damping member, and said weight member, wherein the golf club head comprising a center of gravity and a moment of inertia measured about a vertical axis passing through said center of gravity from approximately 2400 gxcm^2 to approximately 2900 gxcm^2.

Abstract
A multi-piece iron-type golf club head with a substantial weight member is disclosed and claimed. The golf club head includes a plurality of body members. A first body member includes a face, a rear surface, and a hosel. A viscoelastic material is attached to the rear surface, and a second body member is attached to the viscoelastic material. The second body member, which may be a weight member, has a substantially larger mass than in known golf clubs. The viscoelastic member may form a substantial part of the club head. The club head may also have a recess located in a top portion thereof between the heel and the toe and extending toward the sole. A low-density insert may be positioned within the recess.
