A golf sand wedge head comprising:
- a hosel adapted to have fixedly thereto a golf club shaft, said hosel having a longitudinal center axis, said hosel being physically connected to a body;
- said body having a front face for striking a golf ball in a central section of said front face and a rear face which is opposite said front face, said body being displaced from said longitudinal center axis not intersecting such, said front face having a toe edge located furthest from said hosel, said front face having a bottom edge which connects with a planar bottom surface which extends to said rear face, said front face having a top edge located furthest from said bottom edge, said bottom surface being located at a first acute angle relative to said front face, said front face being located at a second acute angle relative to said longitudinal center axis, said bottom edge being offset to be spaced rearwardly a certain distance from said longitudinal center axis;
- and
- said rear face including only three in number of relief areas defined as a first relief area and a second relief area and a third relief area, said first relief area being located directly adjacent said hosel, said second relief area connecting with said toe edge, said third relief area connecting with said top edge, said third relief area extending across both said first relief area and said second relief area and being of a length approximately equal to the combined length of said first relief area and said second relief area, a ridge extending vertically from said sole toward said top edge and extending between said first relief area and said second relief area, whereby the weight of said body is positioned so as to produce a sweet spot which is substantially in alignment with said ridge and located within said central section of said front face.
