Forged and Vintage

Not yet rated

Golf Monthly Verdict

With a good look and finish, these wedges sit well at address. The U-grooves generate good spin and the feel is reasonable. If you prefer a weighty wedge then this could be the one for you. Despite a slightly larger head than its predecessor the Forged and Vintage still has an attractive and compact appearance.
