Generally speaking, titanium has poor for geability and therefore the threshold to invest in the titanium forging operatio n is high. Process parameters have been discussed and computer simulation on the forging processes has been conducted and compared with the forging practices. N ormally, titanium rod was preferred billet on titanium golf club head forging, w hich is the case on iron head, but it is not appropriate on wood head because of its large hollow volume. Therefore, a study on wood head forging from titanium plate has been explored and simulation of the forging processes have been conduc ted and shown reasonable results.
