Available with custom sole grinds (S-Gring, U-Grind & C-Grind) this wedge is forged for maximum spin and versatility. Large, wide grooves increase spin with no loss of control.

The combination of True Temper Dynamic Gold steel shafts and a slate finish (designed to rust over time) creates a distinctive, highly effective wedge for precision golf shots.
