Multi-component golf club head

1. A golf club head comprising a body:

the body comprising a striking face, a rear end, a toe end, a heel end, a crown, a sole, a trailing edge, a first component comprising the striking face and a striking face return, and a second component comprising at least a portion of the rear end, wherein:

the first component comprises a first material having a first density;

the second component comprises a second material having a second density;

the first density is greater than the second density;

the striking face return of the first component extends rearwardly from the striking face and comprises a first component crown portion, and a first component sole portion;

wherein a first component sole portion rear extension extends from the first component sole portion of the striking face return toward the rear end,

wherein the first component sole portion of the striking face return and the first component sole portion rear extension form a T-shaped profile,

wherein the second component is configured to be coupled to the first component to form an enclosed hollow interior of the golf club head;

wherein the first component sole portion rear extension extends rearwards toward the toe end making an acute angle in relationship to an axis perpendicular to the strike face,

wherein the acute angle is between 10 degrees and 40 degrees from the axis perpendicular to the strike face or,

wherein the first component sole portion rear extension extends rearwards toward the heel end making an acute angle in relationship to an axis perpendicular to the strike face,

wherein the acute angle is between 10 degrees and 40 degrees from the axis perpendicular to the strike face.

2. The golf club head of claim 1 , wherein

the first material is a metallic material, and wherein the second material is selected from the group consisting of: a composite material integrated with carbon fibers, and a high strength plastic integrated and/or co-molded with carbon fibers, glass fibers, glass beads, or metallic powders.

3. The golf club head of claim 1 , wherein

the first component crown portion extends from the heel end toward the toe end in a positive parabolic profile extending rearward relative to the strike face, and

wherein a second component crown portion is complementary the first component crown portion.

4. The golf club head of claim 1 , wherein

a first component sole portion toe end extension extends 1.50 inches to 2.00 inches from a center near the strike face towards the toe end,

wherein a first component sole portion heel end extension extends 0.90 inch to 1.40 inches from the center near the strike face towards the heel end.

5. The golf club head of claim 4 , wherein the width of the first component sole portion toe end extension varies as the first component sole portion toe end extension extends from the center near the strike face towards the toe end, and

wherein a width of the first component sole portion heel end extension varies as the first component sole portion heel end extension extends from the center near the strike face towards the heel end.

6. The golf club head of claim 1 , wherein

a first component sole portion toe end extension comprises a width from 1.30 inches to 2.30 inches, and

wherein a first component sole portion heel end extension comprises a width from 1.30 inches to 2.30 inches.

7. The golf club head of claim 1 , wherein the first component sole portion rear extension comprises a length from 4.20 inches to 5.20 inches.

8. The golf club head of claim 1 , wherein the first component sole portion rear extension comprises a width from 0.5 inch to 2.50 inches.

9. The golf club head of claim 8 , wherein the width of the first component sole portion rear extension varies as the first component sole portion rear end extension extends toward the rear end,

wherein the width of the first component sole portion rear extension is greater nearest the striking face and lessor furthest from the striking face.

10. The golf club head of claim 1 , wherein the first component sole portion rear extension extends toward the rear end perpendicular to the striking face.

11. The golf club head of claim 1 , wherein the first component of the body comprises a lip,

wherein the lip is offset toward an interior of the golf club head such that a lip surface is recessed from a first component outer surface,

wherein the lip entirely encompasses a rearward facing edge of the first component of the body, and

wherein a depth of recession of the lip is between 0.01 inch and 0.50 inch.

12. The golf club head of claim 11 , wherein the second component comprises a second component front edge,

wherein the second component front edge is placed over the lip surface of the lip of the first component to form a lap joint when the first component is coupled to the second component to form the golf club head.

13. The golf club head of claim 1 , wherein the first component sole portion rear extension comprises a weight port proximate the trailing edge,

wherein the weight port is configured to receive a sole weight.

14. The golf club head of claim 13 , wherein the first component comprises a first component mass when a sole weight is received in the weight port,

wherein the first component mass is 85 percent to 96 percent of a total mass of the golf club head.

15. The golf club head of claim 13 , wherein the second component comprises a second component mass,

wherein the second component mass comprises 4 percent to 15 percent of a total mass of the golf club head.
