Abstract
An iron-type golf club head for realizing free weight distribution of a head with a face made thinner. A flatted surface 1A of a head body 1 is formed with a plurality of honeycomb-shaped cavities by forging. Owing to the advantages associated with the forging and the honeycomb shape, a face 4 can be made thinner, while avoiding the deterioration of the strength of the face 4. Thus, a surplus weight thus obtained can be distributed to other parts of the head body 1.
