Iron-type golf club head
An iron-type golf club head includes a body, a sole and a face insert. The body includes a toe region, a heel region, and a sole weight bar extending between the toe region and the heel region. The sole defines a toe segment, a medial segment, and a heel segment, and the face insert is coupled to the body and extends around the sole weight bar to form the medial segment of the sole.
1. An iron-type golf club head, comprising:
a body including a toe region, a heel region, and a sole weight bar extending between the toe region and the heel region;
a sole defining a toe segment, a medial segment, and a heel segment; and
a face insert coupled to the body and extending around the sole weight bar to form the medial segment of the sole, wherein a gap is arranged between the sole weight bar and the face insert, and wherein the gap extends around an outer periphery of the sole weight bar and is formed between the sole weight bar and each of a face portion, a sole portion, and a back portion of the face insert.
2. The iron-type golf club head of claim 1 , wherein the sole weight bar is arranged adjacent to a bottom side of the body and includes a weight cavity within which a weight is received.
3. The iron-type golf club head of claim 1 , wherein the face insert includes a face portion and a top portion that extends away from the face portion adjacent to a top side of the body.
4. The iron-type golf club head of claim 3 , further comprising a topline that extends along a medial region defined by the body, wherein the topline is formed by the top portion of the face insert.
5. The iron-type golf club head of claim 1 , wherein the face insert includes a face portion, a sole portion, and a back portion that extend around the sole weight bar, and wherein a gap is formed between the sole portion and the sole weight bar.
6. The iron-type golf club head of claim 1 , wherein the face insert is coupled to the body at an interface between the face insert and the body, wherein the interface includes a first interface between the face insert and the toe region of the body and a second interface between the face insert and the heel region of the body, and wherein the first interface and the second interface extend entirely along a sole-topline direction.
7. An iron-type golf club head, comprising:
a body including a toe region, a heel region, and a sole weight bar extending between the toe region and the heel region; and
a face insert coupled to the body and including a face portion, a sole portion, and a back portion that extend around the sole weight bar, wherein a gap is formed between the sole portion and the sole weight bar, and wherein the gap extends around an outer periphery of the sole weight bar and is formed between the sole weight bar and each of the face portion, the sole portion, and the back portion.
8. The iron-type golf club head of claim 7 , wherein the sole weight bar is arranged adjacent to a bottom side of the body and includes a weight cavity within which a weight is received.
9. The iron-type golf club head of claim 7 , wherein the face insert includes a face portion and a top portion that extends away from the face portion adjacent to a top side of the body.
10. The iron-type golf club head of claim 9 , further comprising a topline that extends along a medial region defined by the body, wherein the topline is formed by the top portion of the face insert.
11. The iron-type golf club head of claim 7 , wherein the face insert is coupled to the body at an interface between the face insert and the body, wherein the interface includes a first interface between the face insert and the toe region of the body and a second interface between the face insert and the heel region of the body, and wherein the first interface and the second interface extend entirely along a sole-topline direction.
12. The iron-type golf club head of claim 7 , further comprising a sole defining a toe segment, a medial segment, and a heel segment, wherein the sole portion of the face insert forms the medial segment of the sole.
13. An iron-type golf club head, comprising
a body including a toe region, a heel region, and a sole weight bar extending between the toe region and the heel region;
a sole defining a toe segment, a medial segment, and a heel segment; and
a face insert coupled to the body at an interface between the face insert and the body, wherein the interface includes a first interface between the face insert and the toe region of the body and a second interface between the face insert and the heel region of the body, and wherein the first interface and the second interface are aligned along a sole-topline direction
wherein the face insert includes a face portion, a sole portion, and a back portion that extend around the sole weight bar, wherein the sole portion defines the medial segment of the sole, wherein a gap is formed between the sole portion and the sole weight bar, and wherein the gap extends around an outer periphery of the sole weight bar and is formed between the sole weight bar and each of the face portion, the sole portion, and the back portion.
14. The iron-type golf club head of claim 13 , wherein the face insert includes a face portion and a top portion that extends away from the face portion adjacent to a top side of the body.
15. The iron-type golf club head of claim 14 , further comprising a topline that extends along a medial region defined by the body, wherein the topline is formed by the top portion of the face insert.
