The Golf Club is a weapon in Silent Hill 4: The Room and Silent Hill: Downpour.

The golf clubs are the first breakable items to ever appear in the Silent Hill franchise.

Silent Hill 4: The RoomEdit

Among the new breakable weapons introduced in the game is a set of Golf Clubs. Henry Townshend can come across the golf clubs in many locations he visits throughout the game. Unlike most other melee weapons, there are many versions of the golf club, differing in type and strength. They all, however, break after an extended period of use, becoming bent and useless. Although stronger than the Steel Pipe Henry uses in the beginning, the golf clubs aren't generally used as often as they break easily and there are more powerful melee weapons that become available shortly into the game.

Eventually, Henry also comes across a stronger version of the Gum Head monsters which use golf clubs as weapons and, after defeating them, Henry can pick up the clubs for his own use.

Silent Hill: Downpour Edit

The Golf Club is an unlockable weapon that can be obtained in Silent Hill: Downpour. It can only be unlocked with the code that came with the pre-order, which is "911977". This code also unlocks 2 other lockers, containing a Nailgun, a Double Headed Axe, a Colt 45 and a Baseball Bat. However, unlocking those will cause the others to become locked in the process, as the player can only choose one. Even though it will eventually break, the Golf Club has large durability and high damage, making it an ideal weapon, except for the fact that it cannot hack through doors, break locks or pull down ladders, meaning that Murphy Pendleton will often have to substitute it for the appropriate weapon.
