A golf club head of the metal wood type has a body formed entirely from one billet of high strength aluminum alloy with a separate sole plate of the same or different material secured in a machined recess on the lower face of the body. The body has an internal, empty cavity machined through a lower wall of the body, and the walls are thicker than in conventional cast stainless steel metalwoods. The front, striking face is machined to any selected bulge and roll, loft and face angle.
