Abstract

A golf club head and manufacturing method. The method includes the steps of: selectively forming through holes on a surface of a golf club head; preparing carbon-fiber plates which are made of prepared carbon-fiber fabrics; providing a cushion channel between an outer periphery of the carbon-fiber plate and an inner periphery of the through hole while each of the carbon-fiber plate is combined with the associated through hole of the golf club head; filling the cushion channel with a filler; and finishing the golf club head to produce an end product.

Claims (12)

1. A manufacturing method for a golf club head, comprising the steps of:

forming at least one through hole on a surface of a main body of the golf club head;

preparing at least one carbon-fiber plate formed by carbon-fiber fabrics;

providing a cushion channel between an outer periphery of the carbon-fiber plate and an inner periphery of the through hole; and

filling the cushion cannel with elastic filler made from non-metal material;

wherein a size of the carbon-fiber plate is smaller than that of the through hole, and a plurality of short fingers are provided on the outer periphery of the carbon-fiber plate and extend outwardly to confront with the inner periphery of the through hole so as to form the cushion channel therebetween such that the carbon-fiber plate positioned in the through hole precisely defines the cushion channel.

2. The manufacturing method as defined in claim 1 , wherein the short fingers are formed on the outer periphery of a large periphery of the carbon-fiber plate by CNC milling.

3. A golf club head comprising:

a main body provided with a striking plate, a crown plate, a sole plate, and a side plate, said main body formed with at least one through hole;

a cushion channel formed between an outer periphery of the carbon-fiber plate and an inner periphery of the through hole; and

an elastic fiber filled in the cushion channel, said elastic fiber made of a non-metal material;

wherein a plurality of short fingers are provided on the outer periphery of the carbon-fiber plate and extend outwardly to confront with the inner periphery of the through hole.
