Abstract
A hollow golf club head includes a fiber-reinforced-plastic body and a metal body. The fiber-reinforced-plastic body includes a main portion of a crown portion. The metal body includes a face portion, a front edge portion of the crown portion continuous with the face portion, and a central portion of a sole portion in a toe-heel direction. The front edge portion of the crown portion made of a metal defines a recess portion in an upper surface thereof. A front edge portion of the fiber-reinforce-resin body overlaps and is joined to the front edge portion of the crown portion made of the metal.
