GOLF CLUB HEAD AND METHOD FOR MAKING IT

摘要

An improved golf club head (10) is disclosed, in which a desired weight for the head (12) is precisely controlled by installing into a cavity (28) formed in the rear wall (26) of the club head's hollow main body a selected weight cartridge (36) from a group of such cartridges having identical sizes but a range of weights. The selected weight cartridge (36) is installed simply by sliding it into the rear wall cavity (28), where it is retained by a snap fit, and/or by an interference fit, and/or by a suitable bonding material, without the need for a screw attachment. This greatly simplifies the golf club head's manufacture, thus reducing its cost. The invention is applicable to golf club heads of all kinds, including metal woods, irons and putters.
