The head constituting this invention coinprises a metal casing l preferably con'- structed of aluminum and shaped tojconform to the shape of an ordinary golf head having tubular extension 2 at its rear end to receive the handle or stick, not shown.
This casing l is flattened at one side and provided with a'removable side 3 secured in position by screws 4 which enter the filler or insert 5 which is constructed of any suitable hard wood. These screws operate not only to hold the side 3 in operative position, but to retain the filler or insert in the casing.
The insert 5 is further secured in the casingr'l by means of screws 6 which enter through the bottom of the'casing, having their heads counter-sunk as is shown clearly in Fig. 5.v
The tubular extension 2has the bore 7` thereof arranged at an oblique angle to receive the golf. club stick or handle, not

Various changes portion and other minor details Vof construction may bemade without departing from the principle or sacrificing any of the advantages of thel claimed invention.
I claim l. A golf club head comprising a" thin metal casing having an insert of'wood or` the like conforming to the shape thereof and encased therein except at the top thereof, thus combining lightness with durability.
