A golf club iron having a head center of gravity that is low and forward enough to provide a better swing, good striking and swinging feel, and improved ball flight is disclosed. The iron has a recess in a leading edge region and a high density insert disposed within the recess to achieve the desired center of gravity location.

Golf club iron with high density leading edge

An improved range finder for use on a golf course. The improved range finder includes means for identifying the closest target in a field of view during a sweep operation of the field of view and means for presenting the distance of the closest target at the conclusion of the sweep operation of the field of view. The improved range finder preferably uses infrared light to detect a flagstick.

A wood type golf club head having a plurality of interior recesses is disclosed herein. The plurality of interior recesses are preferably formed in a body of the golf club head and remove mass from the body to be used elsewhere on the golf club head to increase the inertial properties of the golf club head.

Selectively lightened wood-type golf club head

The present invention provides a novel solution to imparting backspin on high lofted golf clubs. The present invention seeks to define a class of scoreline patterns that result in a higher density of scorelines along the bottom perimeter of an iron face. This in turn, results in increased spin on a golf ball when struck low on the face.

Iron-type golf club head with reduced face area below the scorelines

A method for manufacturing a golf club head having scorelines is disclosed herein. The method includes tumbling a raw cast golf club head in a tumbler containing a rough cut media. The tumbling occurs for at least six hours to create a tumbled golf cub head. The method also includes grinding the tumbled golf club head to clean a perimeter of the tumbled golf club head to create a ground golf club head. The method also includes polishing the ground golf club head to create a polished golf club head. The method also includes finishing the golf club head to create a finished golf club head.

Method for manufacturing a golf club head

A golf club head having a high moment of inertia is disclosed herein. The golf club head preferably has a volume ranging from 450 cubic centimeters to 475 cubic centimeters, a mass ranging from 180 grams to 225 grams, and a length ranging from 4.0 inches to 5.0 inches. The golf club head preferably has a moment of inertia, Iyy, about the center of gravity of the golf club head ranging from 2000 grams-centimeters squared to 4000 grams-centimeters squared. Preferably, the first 20% of the golf club head has at least 60% of the mass of the golf club head.

The golf club head preferably has a moment of inertia, Iyy, about the center of gravity of the golf club head greater than 4000 grams-centimeters squared. Preferably, the golf club includes a metal face component, a non-metal aft-body and a weight member attached to an inlaid portion of the non-metal aft-body.
