Abstract
An iron style golf club head comprising a substantially perimeter weighted club head, including the interposing of three inserts, a striking face insert, a dampening insert and a back insert. The dampening insert, preferably made of a lead alloy, is interposed between the other inserts, and provides for changes in club swing weight while also providing relief for vibration and acoustical variations. The striking face insert is preferably made from a stainless steel alloy and the back inset is preferably made from a carbon graphite.The dampening insert is maneuvered into varied positions to effect a change in the specific gravity of each club head of a golf club set.
