Abstract

A golf club head has a strike face and an opposite back face portion. The strike face defines a recess having a bottom surface and a side wall surface extending between the bottom surface and the strike face. An insert is disposed within the recess. The insert has two portions. The first portion has a passageway extending from a front surface of the insert to a back surface of the insert, and the second portion forms a portion of the strike face. The insert is configured so that the passageway is spaced from the strike face. A vibration dampening material is disposed within the passageway.
