Abstract

An iron-type golf club having selectively machined portions and attributes, including a machined sole portion and/or a machined leading edge portion. The machined portion(s) include continuous machining scallop lines having a scallop height and a step-over distance. The sole portion has a machined sole portion area of at least 900 mm. A leading edge joins the face portion and the sole portion and has a finished leading edge radius. The scallop height is 10-75% of the finished leading edge radius and the step-over distance is less than 150% of the finished leading edge radius at a vertical midpoint demarcation plane. The plurality of continuous machining scallop lines have a machine tool path defining a vertical tool path plane within a path angle from a vertical front-to-rear plane that is perpendicular to a vertical shaft axis plane, and the path angle is no more than 35 degrees.
