- a body comprising a receptacle at a surface of the body;
a multi-density weight comprising;
a first weight component comprising a first density, an inner portion and a periphery around the inner portion; and
a second weight component comprising a second density different from the first density and secured to the inner portion of the first weight component;
anda density relationship comprising at least one of;
the second density being greater than the first density;
orthe first density and second density being greater than a density of the body;
wherein;
the body, the first weight component, and the second weight component comprise materials different from each other;
the receptacle comprises a receptacle base and a receptacle wall at least partially circumscribing the receptacle base;
the multi-density weight comprises a perimeter secured to the receptacle wall; and
the second weight component comprises a weld-averse trait with respect to the body.

13. A method comprising:
-
providing a body of a club head; providing a multi-density weight; and coupling the multi-density weight to a region of the body; wherein; providing the multi-density weight comprises; forming a first weight portion out of a first material different than a body material of the body and having a first density, the first weight portion comprising an inner space and a pro-bond characteristic; forming the first weight portion out of the first material comprises; providing a first mold comprising a first mold base circumscribed by a first mold wall; coating the first mold base with the first material to form a first material base; coating the first mold wall with the first material to form a first material wall circumscribing the first material base; and forming the inner space of the first weight portion to be bounded by the first material base and the first material wall; forming a second weight portion out of a second material different than the body material and the first material and having a second density, the second weight portion comprising an anti-bond characteristic; and bounding the second weight portion at least partially within the inner space of the first weight portion to form the multi-density weight. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
