Abstract

PURPOSE:To offer the manufacturing method of a club head by which no clearance is generated in a hollow part of a hollow club head, when the hollow part concerned is filled with a metallic weight body. CONSTITUTION:According to this manufacturing method for an iron club head, the inside of a hollow part of a hollow iron club head whose shell is formed by joining plural forming members is filled with a metallic weight body subjected to eutectic with an inner wall of the hollow part concerned. Also, plating can be performed in advance to the forming member by using a metal subjected to eutectic coupling with the metallic weight body. Moreover, it is desirable that the metallic weight body is a sintered metal or a molten metal.
