In one example, a golf club head includes a body portion having a center cavity portion, a toe-side cavity portion, a heel-side cavity portion, a first port on the body portion connected to the toe-side cavity portion, a second port on the body portion connected to the heel-side cavity portion, a first filler material in the center cavity portion, and a second filler material in the toe-side cavity portion and the heel-side cavity portion. The toe-side cavity portion is at least partially filled with the second filler material from the first port or the second port, and heel-side cavity portion is at least partially filled with the second filler material from the first port or second port. Other examples and embodiments may be described and claimed.

Embodiments of golf club heads, golf clubs, and methods to manufacture golf club heads and golf clubs are generally described herein. In one example, a golf club head includes a body portion including a toe portion edge, a heel portion edge, a face portion, an interior portion, and first and second ports connected to the interior portion; a mass portion; and a filler material between the face portion and the mass portion. The mass portion has a different shape than the first port or the second port, a distance between the second port and the toe portion edge is greater than a distance between the mass portion and the toe portion edge, and a distance between the first port and the heel portion edge is greater than a distance between the second port and the heel portion edge. Other examples and embodiments may be described and claimed.

Embodiments of golf club heads, golf clubs, and methods to manufacture golf club heads and golf clubs are generally described herein. In one example, a golf club head includes body portion having an interior portion and an exterior portion, a first mass portion coupled to the exterior portion of the body portion below a horizontal midplane of the body portion, and a second mass portion coupled to the interior portion of the body portion. The second mass portion is located proximate to a toe portion edge of the body portion and has a shape at least partially corresponding to a shape of a portion of the toe portion edge. The second mass portion increases in mass in a top-to-sole direction, and more than 50% of the mass of the second mass portion is below the horizontal midplane.
