Golf club head comprising a shell extended laterally by a neck, said shell being constituted by a series of metal plates forming an interior cavity, whose front plate incorporates a support surface to which a hitting plate made of a plastic or composite material is attached. The support face of the front plate is a convex surface extending forward, and the hitting plate associated with it is such that its rear plate, which is supported on the support face, has a matching shape, while the hitting surface is a convex surface extending forward.

Golf club head and processes for its manufacture

The invention concerns a golf ball constituted of a three part structure, constituted of an elastomer core, an intermediate layer, and a thermoplastic envelope. The intermediate layer is made of a thermoplastic material containing at least 10%, and preferably at least 35% of ether block copolymer. The material may also be advantageously constituted of ether block copolymer to which is added 0 to 90% of ionomer(s) with respect to the total weight of the compound.
