ABSTRACT:
A golf club having a ball-contacting surface formed by a very thin layer of lubricant for reducing the spin imparted to a golf ball. By maintaining the thickness of lubricant exposed at the ball-contacting surface to be less than 20 microns, the integrity of the lubricant layer is improved and the mechanical locking effect between the soft lubricant and the golf ball is minimized. The thin lubricating layer may be supported by a reinforcing structure to convey the force of the golf ball impact to the club head without indentation of the thin lubricating layer.
