Abstract
A golf club 'wood' of hollow construction includes a shell or wall which is attached to the back side of the face plates and extends rearwardly to a mass mounted as part of the head. The shell or wall is relatively straight in the load bearing direction and is preferably corrugated to suppress buckling failure. The shell or wall may be cast, or if desired thinner sections may be made of sheet material and assembled to support the face by means of welding, silver brazing, or for certain materials, gluing in place. An outer cover may be added to preserve an approximately traditional external shape or to permit other freedom of design of the external shape. The cover is lightweight construction such as fiber-reinforced plastic, or a very rigid foam plastic material.
