An iron club head includes a striking plate for striking a golf ball and a
body. The body includes an elastically deformable thin wall. An opening
is defined in a front side of the body and surrounded by the thin wall.
The striking plate is bonded in the opening. The thin wall has a
thickness smaller than that of the striking plate. When the iron club
head hits a golf ball, a momentum of striking generated as a result of
hitting the golf ball causes elastic deformation of the striking plate
and the thin wall to increase an overall deformation of the iron club
head.
