Clubheads for iron-type golf clubs

Abstract

Clubheads for iron-type golf clubs include a damper positioned within a lower cavity and a weight coupled to the damper and positioned within the lower cavity, wherein the weight is spaced apart from the club head body, or 'floating.' The floating weight can be fully supported by the damper and while not contacting any surface of the club head body. Such a floating weight and damper can beneficially affect mass properties of the clubhead, such as Zup, CG, and MOI, without unduly stiffening lower portions of the clubhead, thereby allowing the clubhead to have improved mass properties while maintaining desirable ball-striking properties, such as COR and CT, and also providing damping to improve sound and feel. Some clubheads can also include a dual undercut topline to reduce mass. Some clubheads can also include several raised flats on the rear of the face for improved face thickness measurements.
