Title: Golf club head having a shielded stress reducing feature
Assignee: Taylor Made Golf Company, Inc.
Abstract: A hollow golf club incorporating a stress reducing feature having a shield serving to lessen the visual impact of the stress reducing feature, reduce the likelihood of debris from entering the stress reducing feature, and reduce the likelihood of damage to the stress reducing feature, while adding rigidity to a portion of the stress reducing feature and still allowing the stress reducing feature to selectively increase the deflection of the face.
