Abstract
A golf club and methods of assembling and disassembling the shaft and head. The golf club includes a shaft and a head affixed to one another by having a male portion embedded in a female portion, or embedding hole, the two being made of a composite material or plastic, and a heat-conductive intermediate ring is located between the internal peripheral surface of the female portion and the external peripheral surface of the male portion and projecting outwardly from the embedding hole. The shaft is removed by heating outwardly projecting portion of the intermediate ring to soften the adhesive that had secured the shaft to the head.
