Abstract
The invention concerns a golf club head in which by fully utilizing restitution characteristics of a face plate made of a high-elasticity material, the directional stability of a ball and a flying distance are enhanced, and also a good ball-hitting feel is obtained. In the golf club head of the invention, a through hole is formed through a face portion of a metal head body with a peripheral portion thereof remaining. A face plate, which is smaller in specific gravity than the head body, is mounted on the face portion in such a manner that the face plate is supported by a fitting recess portion formed at a peripheral edge portion of the through hole. A vibration-absorbing member, which is lower in elasticity than the face plate, is mounted on a back surface of the face plate in spaced relation to the head body.
