Abstract
A shock-absorbing golf club head includes a front recess in the striking face of a golf club head, having a plurality of through holes communicating with a rear recess in order to form a shock-absorbing layer when the front recess and the rear recess are formed into shape. A metal face plate affixed to the striking face is mounted in the front recess. When shock-absorbing material is put into the front and rear recesses, a double layer for shock-absorbing is formed, thereby adding shock-absorbing, shock-lessening, and stability to the golf club head to give better ball control.
Claims3
A shock-absorbing golf club head comprising:
- at least four layers of materials, said layers including
- a metal face plate,
- a first shock-absorbing layer,
- a body of said golf club head, and
- a second shock-absorbing layer;
- wherein
- said body of said golf club head comprises a plurality of through holes, and
- said first and second shock absorbing layers are formed from a shock-absorbing material, said shock-absorbing material also fills said through holes in said body of said golf club head, an open space on a top side of said golf club head, and an open groove around a perimeter of said metal face plate;
- such that
- said shock-absorbing material is exposed on a front side of said golf club head around said perimeter of said metal face plate, said top side of said golf club head, and a rear side of said golf club head, said second shock-absorbing layer covering a majority of said rear side of said golf club head, and
- said first shock-absorbing layer is in physical contact with said second shock-absorbing layer, thereby maximizing a damping effect.
