Everything about this wedge was decided by what happens in your hands at impact, and every spec below follows from that one priority. Each one is forged, ground and stamped by hand in Colorado.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eForged, not cast\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost wedges at this price are cast. Molten steel poured into a mold, fast and cheap, with a grain structure that ends up porous and inconsistent. Forging is different: a solid billet worked under pressure until the grain runs continuous through the head. That density is what you feel as a solid, connected strike instead of a hollow one. It costs more and it is the single biggest reason this wedge feels the way it does.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e1020 carbon, not stainless\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStainless is harder, cheaper to finish, and it lasts longer without care. It also transmits a sharper, more brittle impact. We chose 1020 carbon because softer steel deforms fractionally at contact and gives back a muted, dense sensation the hands read as control. You give up corrosion resistance. That is a trade we made on purpose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRAW, no plating\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChrome and nickel plating protect a head and deaden it. Every layer between the ball and the steel is a layer of feedback you don't get. RAW means nothing in between.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt also means \u003cstrong\u003eit will rust.\u003c\/strong\u003e Oxidation starts within the first few rounds and deepens into a patina shaped by your climate, your hands, and your turf. This is intended, not a defect. A raw face grips the ball, and the finish keeps a record of the rounds you've played. Wipe the face dry after play and oil the head from time to time. That steers the patina rather than stopping it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBounce ground for the shot\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBounce is what stops a wedge digging, and the right amount depends entirely on the shot you're hitting. We grind each loft to its own number rather than stretching one sole across the set.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e50° gets 10° of bounce.\u003c\/strong\u003e Enough to keep the leading edge from digging on a fairway lie, not so much that it skips into the ball.
