The high spin golf club uses modified grooves for use on all types of known golf clubs, wherein the modified grooves maximizes control of the golf ball through increasing backspin. The high spin golf club's modified grooves can be used alone or in a combination with conventional grooves to tailor the properties of the club face. The modified grooves are of varied configurations and all modified grooves can be used in combination with any other modified or conventional grooves to maximize the backspin of the golf ball and tailor the spin properties of the face of the club. Further a method for making high backspin golf clubs that reduce cover damage of golf balls is disclosed.

A golf club head is characterized by stepped grooves in the striking face thereof. The serrated grooves are defined by opposed side walls each having at least one step portion intermediate the length thereof. The stepped grooves impart more consistent spin to a golf ball when struck by the club head.

A golf club head is characterized by stepped grooves in the striking face thereof. The grooves may have a V-shape or a U-shape. The V-shaped grooves have side walls that intersect at the bottom of the grooves, while the U-shaped grooves have side walls that terminate at opposite ends of a bottom wall, which preferably is parallel to the striking face. At least one side wall of the grooves contains at least one step portion, so that the grooves have a stepped configuration. The stepped grooves impart more consistent spin to a golf ball when struck by the club head.
