Abstract
A forged golf club head is disclosed. More specifically, the present invention discloses a forged golf club head with an improved scoreline profile that not only has improved precision, but also has an improved geometry to help enhance the performance of the golf club head.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A forged golf club head comprising:
a striking face portion located at a frontal portion of said forged golf club head, and a hosel attached to a heel portion of said forged golf club head, wherein a frontal surface of said striking face portion further comprises a plurality of forged scorelines,
wherein an at least one scoreline of said plurality of forged scorelines further comprises;
a toe terminus profile from a cross-sectional view,
a heel terminus profile from a cross-sectional view,
a central constant depth portion, and
a face centerline, defined as a center point between the toe most portion of said at least one scoreline and a heel most point of said at least one scoreline,
wherein said toe terminus profile is different from said heel terminus profile,
wherein said plurality of forged scorelines are formed without any machining, and
wherein said heel terminus profile is non-vertical and chamfered.
2 . The forged golf club head of claim 1 , wherein said at least one scoreline is asymmetrical about said face centerline.
3 - 5 . (canceled)
6 . The forged golf club head of claim 1 , wherein said at least one scoreline has Heel to Toe Terminus Slope Ratio of greater than about 6, said Heel to Toe Terminus Slope Ratio defined as;

7 . The forged golf club head of claim 6 , wherein said Heel to Toe Terminus Slope Ratio is greater than about 8.75.
8 . The forged golf club head of claim 7 , wherein said Heel to Toe Terminus Slope Ratio is greater than about 13.
9 . The forged golf club head of claim 1 , wherein said toe terminus profile has a slope of less than about 0.25.
10 . The forged golf club head of claim 9 , wherein said toe terminus profile has a slope of less than about 0.20.
11 . The forged golf club head of claim 10 , wherein said toe terminus profile has a slope of less than about 0.15.
12 . The forged golf club head of claim 9 , wherein said heel terminus profile has a slope of greater than about 1.5.
13 . The forged golf club head of claim 12 , wherein said heel terminus profile has a slope of greater than about 1.75.
14 . The forged golf club head of claim 13 , wherein said heel terminus profile has a slope of greater than about 2.0.
15 . A forged golf club head comprising:
a striking face portion located at a frontal portion of said forged golf club head, and a hosel attached to a heel portion of said forged golf club head, wherein a frontal surface of said striking face portion further comprises a plurality of forged scorelines,
wherein an at least one scoreline of said plurality of forged scorelines further comprises;
a toe terminus profile from a cross-sectional view,
a heel terminus profile from a cross-sectional view,
a central constant depth portion, and
a face centerline, defined as a center point between the toe most portion of said at least one scoreline and a heel most point of said at least one scoreline,
wherein said at least one scoreline is asymmetrical about said face centerline,
wherein said plurality of forged scorelines are formed without any machining, and
wherein said heel terminus profile is non-vertical and chamfered.
16 . The forged golf club head of claim 15 , wherein said scoreline has Heel to Toe Terminus Slope Ratio of greater than about 6, said Heel to Toe Terminus Slope Ratio defined as;
