A head includes a head body and a face plate fixed to the head body. The face plate includes a plate front surface, a plate back surface, and a plate side surface. The plate back surface includes a center of figure. The head body includes a receiving surface which supports the plate back surface from rear. An outer peripheral edge part of the plate back surface includes a projection part which abuts on the receiving surface. If a toe-side region, a top-side region, and a sole-side region of the projection part are defined as a first section, and a heel-side region of the projection part is defined as a second section, then a width of the projection part is varied in the first section.
