A golf club head comprises a main body that defines a front face. The front face includes a plurality of projections extending from the front face. The ends of the projections define a plurality of individual contact surfaces for striking a golf ball. The plurality of projections prevent a golf ball from contacting the front face thereby resulting in a change of the golf ball general contact area. A golf club incorporating the club head provides improved control of a golf ball and also provides improved feel when the club head impacts a golf ball.
