ABSTRACT:
A golf clubhead comprises a body having a predetermined lower density and a head weight means is of a predetermined higher density. There is also a toe weight means of the portion of the head weight means in the toe section. The clubhead may have a mass profile means to position: (i) a substantial portion of the mass of the toe weight means away from the center of mass of the clubhead toward the toe; and (ii) the center of mass of the toe weight means behind the extreme front of the ball striking surface no higher than the mid-height of the toe weight means. A characteristic feature of said substantial portion of the toe weight means adjacent the toe comprises an expanded surface whereby both the height and width of the substantial portion of the toe weight means are generally greater than the length of said substantial portion of the toe weight means. The invention may also include a mass distribution means to decrease the relative mass of the body and the toe weight means in the region of the toe section near the center of mass of the clubhead and to position a substantial portion of the mass of the toe weight means adjacent the toe with the center of mass of the toe weight means behind the extreme front of the ball striking surface.
