Miura launches new forged wedge series
Miura Golf has this week announced the release of their new forged wedge series.
Five years in the making, the new Y and C grind soles were designed to interact crisply with the turf to enhance contact and encourage consistency. The lie, loft and face progression aims to create a flawless flow from the hosel through the clubhead. The clean, classic forged wedge look was developed with design to promote short game confidence for pros and amateurs alike.
“The Forged Wedge Series enhances a golfer’s three most important senses: What a golfer sees, feels, and hears brings clarity to each shot—for the part of the game where strokes are saved, and matches are won. Our newest wedge heads were carefully engineered to put the mass in the right places so golfers can get the optimum contact and control, allowing for easier turf travel through impact and more overall consistent ball flight.” – Bill Holowaty, COO, Miura Golf
The Y Grind
Beneficial for golfers who have a neutral to steep angle of attack and tend to remove some turf through impact when playing a variety of shots around the green. This grind will offer more control and more spin for that type of player and the leading edge, high bounce and cambering of the Y Grind aims to make it equally as easy to get out of bunkers, soft conditions and long rough.
The C Grind
Optimal for players who have a neutral to shallow attack angle in order to sweep the ball and pick it off the turf around the green. The additional heel and toe relief on this wedge allows for more confident open face shots and provides versatility to handle intricate shots and tight lies around the green on any type of turf condition.
Every Y and C grind wedge is stamped with the forged “Kanji” symbol, a Japanese character which translates to “striving” or “noble effort.”
The Y Grind wedge is available in 46, 48, 50, 52, 54 and 56-degree lofts. The C Grind wedge is available in 54, 56, 58 and 60-degree lofts.
