GOLF CLUB_ IROI"S
This invention relates to golf clubs and, more particularly, to irons having a back cavity where the perimeter outside the back cavity is varied such that the geometric center of the face of the club head coincides with the center of mass of the club head.
Golf clubs comprise a shaft and a club head and are generally classified into three categories:
woods, irons and putters. Irons are classified by loft angle. Irons with low loft angles, e.g.
20U_30~ are classified as long irons while irons with large loft angles, e.g. 40-50, are classified as short irons. Typically, irons are numbered from long to short, i.e. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 15 9, PW ~ pitching wedge), SW (sand wedge), and LW
(lob wedge).
The club head of an iron has a face, for hitting the golf ball, and a back. The back may have either a cavity or a smooth surface. Each face has an area referred to as a sweet spot. The sweet spot is that area on the face of a club head which, when it impacts a golf ball, provides the most favorable results. Cavity back irons have larger sweet spots than solid back irons. There have 2070~65 ~een suggestions to vary the size and posltion of the back cavity; see U.S. Patent Nos. 4,715,601 issued December 29, 1987 and 4,848,747 issued July 18, 1989. However, none of these references teach the achieving of aligning the geometric center of the face of an iron with the center of gravlty oE the club head by varying the perimeter weight of the back of the club head.
It has now been discovered that an exceptionally playable cavity back iron can be made by adjusting the perimeter weighting outside the cavlty in the back of the iron so that the center of gravity of the club head and the geometric center of the face of the club head coincide.
According to the present invention it is important that the weight adjus-tment be in the perimeter of the club head and not in the cavity itself.
This achieves better heel-toe balance than can be achieved by adjusting the weight in the cavity itself. It is especially desirable to maintain a flat cavity bottom. This can be achieved by maintaining a constant distance between the face and the cavity bottom throughout a substantial portion of the cavity.
In additlon to adjusting -the perimeter weight in the back of the club head, the hosel length of the irons is maintained a-t substantially the same length, preferably within +.01 inch and most preferably +.005 inch, while the ratio of the overall percentage of the club weight in the toe and sole is greater in the short irons than in the long irons.
The geometric center of the face is located by finding the mid-point of the blade length along the sole and moving upward a distance about equal to the radius of a golf ball, from about ~ inch to about 1 inch (about l.3 to about 2.5 cm). More preferably, the geometric center of the face is located about 0.8-0.9 inch (about 2.0-2.3 cm) up from the mid-point of the blade as measured along the sole.
In order to produce an iron in accordance with the present invention, it is preferred that the offset of the club heads be yreater in the long irons than in the short irons, preferably decreasing progressively from long irons to short irons. As is well known to those in the art, offset is the distance from a plane tangent to the front of the hosel parallel to the leading edge of the club to the leading edge. The progression of offset from the long to the short irons contributes to the performance of the iron. In long irons the 207~5 larger offset helps keep the players' hands ahead of the ball at impact and promotes a steep angle of attack to get the ball airborne more quickly.
The bounce angle is also preferably varied.
As is well known to those in the art, bounce angle is the distance between the ground and the line which connects the leading edge of the sole with the trailing, or effective trailing, edge of the sole. ~referably, the longer irons have a negative bounce angle while the middle irons have a neutral bounce angle and the shorter irons have a positive bounce angle. The bounce angle helps improve playability, launch angle and spin rate.
These and other aspects of the present invention may be more fully understood by reference to the following drawings:

The toe and sole weight were measured by physically cutting each club along the line marked 71 in Fig. 5.
The line 71 is a continuation of the toe line and the sole line of each cavity 70. The cavity volume was measured by placing each club with the back horizontal, filling the cavity with sand, levelling the sand to be even with the back of the club head, measuring the weight of the sand and calculating the volume from the measured weight.
The irons can be made of any desired metal.
sest results have been obtained using stainless steel that has been heat treated to obtain a Rockwell hardness of C18-C22.
Any conventional shaft and grip can be used with the club heads of the present invention.
Best results have been obtained wlth True Temper shaft MS~209 and Golf Pride Victory half cord grip.
