IRON WITH SOLE SLOT

Abstract: a golf club head having a slot in the sole filled with an insert in which the slot is positioned close to the striking face. the insert can have a uniform height or a nonuniform height. inserts with uniform heights can have a low height profile. inserts with nonuniform heights can have a lower height in a central portion of the insert compared to an edge portion or a perimeter portion of the insert. the resulting golf club head improves performance, as the sole slot with insert allows the striking face to have a profile that meets the needs at that location.
