a golf club head body comprising:
a driver-type golf club head body;a sole comprising a sole bottom end; anda hosel; a shaft sleeve insertable into the hosel and configured to repositionably couple a golf club shaft with the hosel; and a securing fastener configured to couple to a sleeve bottom end of the shaft sleeve to secure the shaft sleeve in the hosel; wherein:
the hosel comprises:
a hosel inner wall;a hosel outer wall comprising a hosel outer perimeter;a hosel bore bounded by the hosel inner wall and configured to receive the shaft sleeve; anda hosel top portion comprising:
a hosel top end;a hosel top coupler; anda hosel top wall thickness at the hosel top end;the shaft sleeve comprises:
a sleeve bore configured to receive an end of the golf club shaft;a shaft sleeve center of gravity; anda sleeve top coupler configured to engage the hosel top coupler to restrict a rotation of the shaft sleeve relative to the golf club head body when the shaft sleeve is inserted in the hosel;when the golf club head is at an address position, and when the shaft sleeve is secured in the hosel, the shaft sleeve center of gravity is located at a sleeve CG vertical distance of less than approximately 46.2 mm relative to the sole bottom end;the golf club head body comprises an assembled club head center of gravity when the golf club head body is assembled with the shaft sleeve and the securing fastener;the assembled club head center of gravity is located at an assembled club head CG vertical distance relative to the sole bottom end;when the golf club head is at the address position, and when the shaft sleeve is secured in the hosel, the sleeve CG vertical distance is at least approximately 7.6 mm greater than the assembled club head CG vertical distance; andthe hosel outer perimeter comprises a hosel diameter less than approximately 14 mm at the hosel top end.
