Abstract
In a golf club head, a head main body formed of metal includes a recessed portion in the face part thereof, a face member formed of a highly elastic synthetic resin material is mounted in the recessed portion, and, at the ball hitting surface side of the face member, there is disposed a protective layer formed of a metal plate which is higher in hardness than the highly elastic synthetic resin material, is equal to or smaller than the head main body in specific gravity, and is smaller in thickness than the face member. The golf club head can prevent the ball hitting surface of the golf club head from being worn without impairing ball carry and ball hitting feeling.
