Abstract:
A high moment of inertia golf club head composed of a composite material and having a weight strip in a ribbon section is disclosed herein. The weight strip may be composed of copper, tungsten or a similar metal. The moment of inertia, Izz, of the golf club head about a vertical axis Z through the center of gravity ranges from 2800 g-cm2 to 5000 g-cm2, and a moment of inertia, Iyy, about a horizontal axis Y through the center of gravity of the golf club head ranges from 1900 g-cm2 to 2500 g-cm2. The golf club head is preferably composed of plies of pre-peg sheets. The volume of the composite golf club head varies from 300 cm3 to 600 cm3.
