Abstract
A golf club head includes a body; a face; and a crown. The body includes a crown opening; a beam dividing the crown opening; and a sole. The face includes a front surface that strikes a ball; and a back surface. The crown closes the crown opening. The sole has a butting structure that contacts the back surface of the face at a contact portion. As viewed in a crown-sole direction, a length from a face toe end to a face heel end in a toe-heel direction is set as a face length, and each of a toe edge and a heel edge of the beam and the contact portion is arranged within a 15% range of the face length in the toe-heel direction from an imaginary straight line extending in a face-back direction and through a center of the face length.
