Abstract

The invention concerns a golf club of metal which can withstand an impact produced when hitting a ball, and reduces the transmission of vibration to a shaft when hitting the ball, thereby giving a soft ball-hitting feel. In the metal golf club, a pair of shaft support portions are provided respectively at a top portion side and a sole portion side of a head body, i.e. a hollow shell cast of metal. A shaft inserted into the head body is supported at two points by the two shaft support portions. A cushioning member of a synthetic resin is interposed between each of the shaft support portions and the shaft.
