Abstract
A golf club which can give a golf player a soft feel of striking. A metallic head 1 has a face 3 whose surface is formed with a silver plating layer 8 of Hv 200 or below. Thus, the surface of the face 3 is protected from rust, and a softer feel of striking can be obtained when he strikes a ball, unlike conventional golf clubs with hard plating layer. As the surface for striking balls is comparatively soft, a period of time that a ball is contact with the face 3 is prolonged, thus making it easier for a player to give a spin to the ball. A black layer 9 is formed on the silver plated surface of the face 3, and thus less reflection of light is resulted at the time of addressing a ball, so that balls can be addressed easily.
