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 have a body portion having a toe portion, a heel portion, a top portion, a sole portion, a front portion, a lead edge portion, a back portion, and an interior cavity. The golf club head may also have a polymer material partially or entirely filling the interior cavity. Other examples and embodiments may be described and claimed.
Claims20
A set of golf club heads comprising:
- at least two golf club heads, each of which includes a body portion having a toe portion, a heel portion, a top portion, a sole portion, a front portion, a back portion, a face portion coupled to the front portion and having a loft angle, and an interior cavity partially or entirely filled with a polymer material,
- wherein the loft angles of the golf club heads are different from each other and are in a range of 21.5° or approximately 21.5° to 45° or approximately 45°,
- wherein each of the golf club heads produce a loudness as a result of the face portion striking a golf ball at a golf club head speed,
- wherein for a golf club head speed of 80 mph, the loudness tends to decrease with increasing loft angle at a rate ranging from 0.1420-0.3427 (sones/degree loft angle),
- wherein for a golf club head speed of 85 mph, the loudness tends to decrease with increasing loft angle at a rate ranging from 0.1288-0.3914 (sones/degree loft angle), and
- wherein for a golf club head speed of 90 mph, the loudness tends to decrease with increasing loft angle at a rate ranging from 0.0551-0.3208 (sones/degree loft angle).
A set of golf club heads comprising:
- a first golf club head having an interior cavity partially or entirely filled with a thermoset material, and a loft angle of 21.5° or approximately 21.5°;
- a second golf club head having an interior cavity partially or entirely filled with a thermoset material, and a loft angle of 24° or approximately 24°;
- a third golf club head having an interior cavity partially or entirely filled with a thermoset material, and a loft angle of 27° or approximately 27°;
- a fourth golf club head having an interior cavity partially or entirely filled with a thermoset material, and a loft angle of 31° or approximately 31°;
- a fifth golf club head having an interior cavity partially or entirely filled with a thermoset material, and a loft angle of 35° or approximately 35°;
- a sixth golf club head having an interior cavity partially or entirely filled with a thermoset material, and a loft angle of 40° or approximately 40°;
- and
- a seventh golf club head having an interior cavity partially or entirely filled with a thermoset material, and a loft angle of 45° or approximately 45°,
- wherein each of the golf club heads produce loudness as a result of striking a golf ball at a golf club head speed, and
- wherein loudness produced by the golf club heads tends to decrease with increasing loft angle for golf club head speeds of 80 mph, 85 mph, and 90 mph.
A set of golf club heads comprising:
- a plurality of golf club heads, each of which includes a body portion having a toe portion, a heel portion, a top portion, a sole portion, a front portion, a back portion, a face portion coupled to the front portion and having a loft angle, and an interior cavity partially or entirely filled with a thermoset material,
- wherein the loft angles of the golf club heads are different from each other and are in a range of 21.5° or approximately 21.5° to 45° or approximately 45°,
- wherein each of the golf club heads produce loudness as a result of the face portion striking a golf ball at a golf club head speed, and
- wherein for golf club head speeds of 80 mph, 85 mph, and 90 mph, changes in loudness of the golf club heads are inversely related to changes in loft angle.
