Abstract

A golf club head which includes a swing directing ridge which extends down the hosel and across the club head body. The ridge includes a front sloped surface and a back sloped surface which extend outward from the club head body and hosel to terminate in a crest. The slope of the front and back sloped surfaces are varied from forward slopes to rearward slopes at different portions of the hosel and club head body to provide a wave-like visual cue which promotes desirable golf swing characteristics.
