Abstract
A golf club head includes a striking face having a face center and defining a face plane, a virtual vertical center plane perpendicular to the face plane and passing through the face center, a sole portion, a top portion, a heel portion, a toe portion, a hosel configured to receive a shaft, and a loft, L, no less than 39°. A center of gravity is spaced toe-ward from the vertical center plane by a distance, Dt, of greater than 0.0 mm. A moment of inertia, Iyy, measured about an axis extending in a heel to toe direction, parallel with a ground plane, passes through the center of gravity such that Iyy is no less than 1150 g·cm.
