A golf club head and a method of making a golf club head are disclosed. The method provides for winding a single continuous filament multiple times about a soluble core. The wound core is located in a mold and pressure coated with a pure or non-continuous fiber filled resin. The resin is allowed to cure to form a filament and resin shell about the core. The soluble core is removed leaving the continuous filament in the shell.

What is claimed is: 1. A method of making a golf club head, comprising: winding a single continuous filament multiple times within a plurality of continuous grooves extending entirely about a soluble core, and then winding said filament over said core to produce a layer of filament about said core; locating said wound core in a mold; pressure coating said wound core in said mold with a resin, said resin dispersing among said filament windings; allowing said resin to cure and form a filament and resin shell about said core; and removing said soluble core from said shell while retaining said continuous filament in said shell. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein said filament is wound in said grooves in a first direction across said core and then in a second direction back across said core. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein said wound core is located in said mold with a face plate and a sole plate, said plates having been pre-positioned within said mold. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein said resin has a plurality of individual non-continuous filaments, separate from said single continuous filament, suspended therein. 5. The method of claim 3, wherein said face plate and said sole plate are secured to said shell by said resin. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein said grooves in said core, said resin and said single continuous filament form ribs in said shell, wherein said ribs support said face plate.
