Provided is a golf club having a head disposed at a front end of a shaft and a grip disposed at a back end of the shaft. A club weight is not larger than 290 g, and a ratio (head weight/club weight) of a head weight to a club weight is not lower than 0.67 but not higher than 0.72. Furthermore, a grip weight is not smaller than 27 g but not larger than 45 g, and when a distance from the front end of the shaft to a center of gravity the shaft is LG and when a full length of the shaft is LS, 0.54@LG/LS@0.65 is satisfied.
