WOOD-TYPE GOLF CLUB HEAD

A "wood-type" golf club comprising a plurality of separately constructed and finished components is disclosed. In its preferred form, the golf club comprises a face plate, a club head block and a reinforcing collar. The face plate, the club head block and the collar are separately constructed and finished and subsequently assembled into a finished golf club. According to the invention, the construction and finishing of the individual components and subsequent assembly thereof is such that at selected interfaces between the components of different material, relative movement of the components due to thermal expansion, moisture, etc. does not produce visible component interface separation lines. This may be accomplished by providing unequal peripheral dimensions of the components of different materials at the selected interfaces.
