Abstract

A golf club is disclosed herein having aerodynamic characteristics reducing drag resistance to maintain maximum head speed which includes a head having a front face with a top surface and an undersurface rearwardly sloping together to define a tapered back face. The sides of the head slope in convergence from the top surface to the undersurface. A pair of open-ended arcuate passageways are provided in the head substantially in parallel with a round opening at the front face and terminating in an oval exit at the back face. The radius of the arcuate passageways lies on the radius of the golfer's swing and a pointer is located on the top surface adjacent the front face to indicate alignment with sweet spot location on the front face. The undersurface includes a pair of ridges defining a central groove and opposite side grooves with terminations at the oval exits of the passageways.
