Abstract:
A ball striking device, such as a golf club head, includes a face having a ball striking surface configured for striking a ball and a body connected to the face and extending rearwardly from the face. The body has an impact-influencing structure in the form of a channel positioned on at least one surface of the body. A majority of a force generated by impact with a ball is absorbed by the impact-influencing structure, and a majority of a response force generated by the head upon impact with the ball is generated by the impact-influencing structure. The face may have increased stiffness as compared to existing faces, and may include a stiffening structure to create the increased stiffness, such as a porous or cellular stiffening structure.

Claim (Index 9):
The golf club head of  claim 8 , further comprising:\n a toe channel located on the surface of the body, the toe channel having a third periphery defined by third boundary edges, wherein the toe channel is located between the toe side of the body and the geometric centerline of the body, wherein the boundary edges of the first channel and the third boundary edges of the toe channel are disconnected and separated from each other by a toe spacing portion separating the first channel from the toe channel.
