Abstract

A wood type golf club formed of a shaft and head assembly, the head assembly including a hollow main body portion and an insert coupled thereto along the majority of its periphery by a dovetail to preclude lateral and downward movement of the insert with respect to the main body portion, the main body portion having a ramp extending outwardly from its face with the adjacent face of the insert having a recess positioned to receive the ramp thereby precluding the movement of the insert upwardly away from the main body portion and further including an adhesive coupling the insert to the main body portion.
