Abstract
A golf club metal wood head made of lighter weight material than stainless steel, such as aluminum alloy, has a front wall with an outer striking face, an upper wall, a lower wall, a rear wall, a heel and a toe, and an internal cavity milled out through a wall of the head to selected dimensions to provide a selected front wall thickness, and a varying wall thickness around the remainder of the head to provide a selected perimeter weighting to the head. The front wall is made significantly thicker than in conventional heads.
