A golf club head includes a face plate and a body member positioned rearwardly of the face plate and having at least two body components. Each of a plurality of apertures is formed in one of the face plate and the body components. At least one fastener extends through at least two of the apertures, the fasteners being configured to removably secure the face plate and the body components together upon being turned a portion of a revolution.

[0007] The principles of the invention may be used to advantage to provide a golf club and golf club head with a fastener for securing body components together. In accordance with a first aspect, a golf club head includes a face plate and a body member positioned rearwardly of the face plate and having at least two body components. Each of a plurality of apertures is formed in one of the face plate and the body components. Included is at least one fastener, with each fastener extending through at least two of the apertures, and being configured to removably secure the face plate and the body components together upon being turned a portion of a revolution.

[0008] In accordance with another aspect, a golf club head includes a crown portion having at least one first aperture and a first recess formed therein. A sole portion is positioned beneath the crown and has at least one second aperture and a second recess formed therein. A face plate is received in the first and second recesses. Included is at least one fastener, with each fastener extending through a first aperture and a second aperture, and being configured to secure the face plate, the crown portion, and the sole portion together upon being turned a portion of a revolution.

[0009] In accordance with a further aspect, a golf club assembly includes a shaft and a club head secured to the first end of the shaft. The club head includes a face plate; a body member positioned rearwardly of the face plate and having at least two body components; and a plurality of apertures, with each aperture being formed in one of the face plate and the body components. Included is at least one fastener, with each fastener extending through at least two of the apertures and configured to removably secure the face plate and the body components together upon being turned a portion of a revolution.

[0010] Substantial advantage is achieved by providing a golf club and golf club head with a fastener for securing body components together. In particular, certain embodiments allow a user or other individual to quickly and reliably secure the components of a club head together, along with providing the ability to disassemble the club head at a later time to replace or change one or more components of the club head.
