Abstract
A new method for manufacturing hollow golf club heads is presented where the metal of the upper and lower club surfaces is impressed with regular dimples in a geometric pattern. The dimpling of the metal confers additional structural strength to the club head, permitting reduction in the weight of metal in the club head per unit of strength. The club also has improved aerodynamic characteristics during the golf swing and because of the reduced amount of surface area contacting the ground, reduced friction with the ground upon contacting the ball.
