Abstract
A golf club has a weight member provided between a shaft and a head thereof. The weight member is optionally made of materials with high density, and has a weight substantially equal to a weight of a standard head of a conventional golf club minus the weight of the head of the golf club of the invention. Thus, the weight of the head is less than the standard head of the conventional golf club and the whole weight of the golf club is equal to the conventional golf club, so that the twisting force applied to the head of the golf club is lessened, and the stability of the golf club is improved.
