Systems and methods for additive manufacturing of a golf club

1. A golf club head, comprising:

a body formed layer by layer and including a topline, a sole, a front face defining a face plane, and an internal cavity arranged between the topline and the sole, wherein the body defines a heel region, a medial region, and a toe region, wherein the internal cavity includes a lattice structure extending from an intersection between the heel region and the medial region to the toe region, wherein a solid portion extends from the front face to a rear surface of the body and defines a thickness in a direction normal to the face plane, wherein the thickness of the solid portion completely extends uninterrupted from the front face to the rear surface of the body along the direction normal to the face plane, wherein the front face, the solid portion, the lattice structure, and the rear surface of the body are formed from the same metal, wherein the thickness of the solid portion decreases moving from the sole toward the topline, and wherein the lattice structure is disposed entirely between the solid portion and the topline; and

a first aperture formed through a hosel extending from the body and a second aperture formed through the rear surface of the body, wherein the first aperture and the second aperture are configured to form a flow path that extends along the internal cavity,

wherein, in an assembled configuration, the lattice structure is visible from an exterior of the golf club head through at least the second aperture, and

wherein the lattice structure is positioned above and below the second aperture.

2. The golf club head of claim 1 , wherein a distance that the lattice structure extends in a sole-topline direction within the toe region is smaller than a distance between the topline and the sole.

3. The golf club head of claim 1 , wherein the lattice structure defines a unit cell, and wherein at least one of a unit cell size, shape, density, and volume varies along the internal cavity.

4. The golf club head of claim 1 , wherein the lattice structure defines a unit cell having a constant shape along the internal cavity.

5. The golf club head of claim 1 , wherein the lattice structure defines a unit cell having a constant size along the internal cavity.

6. The golf club head of claim 1 , wherein the lattice structure defines a unit cell having a constant volume along the internal cavity.

7. A golf club head, comprising:

a body formed layer by layer and including a topline, a sole, and an internal cavity arranged between the topline and the sole, wherein the body defines a heel region, a medial region, and a toe region;

a lattice structure arranged within the internal cavity, wherein the lattice structure extends from an intersection between the heel region and the medial region to the toe region;

a front face defining a face plane;

a solid portion extending from the front face to a rear surface of the body and defining a thickness in a direction normal to the face plane, wherein the thickness of the solid portion completely extends uninterrupted from the front face to the rear surface of the body along the direction normal to the face plane, wherein the front face, the solid portion, the lattice structure, and the rear surface of the body are formed from the same metal, wherein the thickness of the solid portion decreases moving from the sole toward the topline, and wherein the lattice structure is disposed entirely between the solid portion and the topline; and

at least one aperture formed through at least one of a hosel cavity extending from the body and the rear surface of the body, wherein the at least one aperture is configured to form a flow path that extends along the internal cavity and the at least one aperture, wherein the at least one aperture includes a first aperture that is formed in the hosel cavity and a second aperture that is formed by a slot in the rear surface of the body that extends laterally across the body, and wherein the slot is disposed between the topline and the solid portion,

wherein, in an assembled configuration, the lattice structure is visible from an exterior of the golf club head through at least the second aperture, and

wherein the lattice structure is positioned above and below the second aperture.

8. The golf club head of claim 7 , wherein the lattice structure defines a unit cell having a constant shape along the internal cavity.

9. The golf club head of claim 7 , wherein the lattice structure defines a unit cell having a constant size along the internal cavity.

10. The golf club head of claim 7 , wherein the lattice structure defines a unit cell having a constant volume along the internal cavity.
