Abstract
Embodiments of golf club heads and methods to manufacture golf club heads are generally described herein. In one example, a golf club head may include a body portion with a toe portion, a heel portion, a top portion, a sole portion, a back portion, and a front portion having a face portion with a face portion thickness extending between a front surface and a back surface. The body portion may be associated with a body portion volume. The golf club head may also include an interior cavity. The interior cavity may include an elastic polymer material. Other examples and embodiments may be described and claimed.
Claims20
A golf club head comprising:
- a hollow body portion having a toe portion with a toe portion edge, a hosel portion, a top portion with a top portion edge, a sole portion with a sole portion edge, a back portion with a back wall portion, and a front portion;
- a face portion coupled to the hollow body portion enclosing the front portion to create an interior cavity;
- a first port located on the back wall portion and above a horizontal midplane of the body portion, the first port having a first port opening at one end of the first port on the back wall portion and a first port wall on an opposite end of the first port;
- and
- a second port below the horizontal midplane, the second port having a second port opening at one end of the second port on the back wall portion and a second port wall on an opposite end of the second port;
- wherein the first port wall is separated from the face portion by a first distance,
- wherein the second port wall is separated from the face portion by a second distance, and
- wherein the second distance is greater than or equal to three times the first distance.
A golf club head comprising:
- a hollow body portion having a toe portion with a toe portion edge, a hosel portion, a top portion with a top portion edge, a sole portion with a sole portion edge, a back portion with a back wall portion, and a front portion;
- a face portion coupled to the hollow body portion enclosing the front portion to create an interior cavity;
- and
- a first port located on the back wall portion and above a horizontal midplane of the body portion, the first port having a first port opening at one end of the first port and a first port wall on an opposite end of the first port,
- wherein a distance between the first port opening and the first port wall is greater than a width of the interior cavity between the first port and the face portion.
A golf club head comprising:
- a hollow body portion having a toe portion with a toe portion edge, a hosel portion, a top portion with a top portion edge, a sole portion with a sole portion edge, a back portion with a back wall portion, and a front portion;
- a face portion coupled to the hollow body portion enclosing the front portion to create an interior cavity;
- a first port located on the back wall portion and above a horizontal midplane of the body portion, the first port having a first port opening at one end of the first port and a first port wall on an opposite end of the first port;
- a second port located on the back wall portion and below the horizontal midplane, the second port having a second port opening at one end of the second port and a second port wall on an opposite end of the second port;
- a first mass portion;
- and
- a second mass portion,
- wherein the first port is configured to receive the first mass portion,
- wherein the second port is configured to receive the second mass portion,
- wherein a distance between the first port wall and the first port opening is less than a height of the second mass portion,
- wherein a distance between the first port and the toe portion edge is substantially less than a distance between the first port and the hosel portion, and
- wherein a distance between the second port and the toe portion edge is substantially less than a distance between the second port and the hosel portion.
