Abstract

A golf club head with a hardened striking face portion that improves durability and performance is disclosed. More specifically, the golf club head disclosed may have a martensitic striking face portion that may be at least about 1.3 times harder than the rear portion of the golf club head due to the martensitic crystalline structure of the striking face portion foamed by heating and quenching the striking face portion of the golf club head.
