The putter head (30) comprises a main body (32) that defines a front face (36). The front face (36) includes a plurality of projections (56) extending from the front face (36). The ends (57, 58) of the projections (56) define a plurality of individual contact surfaces for striking a golf ball. The plurality of projections (56) prevent a golf ball from contacting the front face (36) thereby resulting in a decrease of the golf ball general contact area. The putter head (30) provides improved control of a golf ball and also provides improved feel when the putter head impacts a golf ball.
