Abstract
A cavity back driver has a club head body and a hosel. The club head body has a body shell and a substantially flat front face. The body shell has a generally arcuate lower flange and a generally curvilinear upper flange. The lower flange has a flattened portion generally midway therein. The face is canted from a plane normal to the flattened portion by a selected angle. Each of the lower flange and the upper flange extend rearwardly from the face to form the cavity back. The lower flange extends substantially further rearwardly than the upward flange and tapers inwardly towards a juncture with the upper flange at each end. The extension and tapering of the lower flange is selected so that the center of mass of the club head body is foreweighted and located a selected distance behind the center of the face. The hosel has a shaft portion which receives the shaft of the golf club and a club body portion integrally interconnected to the body shell proximate one juncture of the lower flange and the upper flange.
