A method of manufacturing a golf club head comprises: making a billet of a titanium
alloy Ti-6Al-4V by machining an ingot of the titanium alloy; forging the billet
into a face plate within a temperature range of from (the beta transformation temperature
-;150 degrees C.) to (the beta transformation temperature -;20 degrees C.); and
jointing the face plate and a head main body, whereby the golf club head comprise
a face portion for hitting a ball, at least part of which is made of an alpha and
beta type titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V including alpha phase crystal structure whose
average grain size is not less than 20 micrometers but less than 70 micrometers.
