Abstract

A golf club head includes a face portion that includes a first part and a second part. The first part includes a first material. The second part includes a second material, and one surface of the second part is bonded to one surface of the first part in a thickness direction of the first part. A density of the first material is 1.3 g/cm3 or less. A density of the second material is more than the density of the first material, and is 2.9 g/cm3 or less. Another surface of the second part is a hitting surface. The another surface of the second part, serving as the hitting surface, is opposite to the one surface of the second part. The second part includes a groove recessed from the hitting surface.
