VANCOUVER, British Columbia-Japanese golf-club manufacturer Miura
Golf-which has been making the world's highest-quality forged irons for 44
years-announces the K Grind wedge.
"We are very excited about the release of the K Grind wedge", says Bill
Holowaty, the VP of North American Operations for Miura Golf. "The unique
sole design (each wedge grinded by hand) delivers uncompromised
performance to your short game."
The international golfing press has always used the words "from the hands
of god" to describe Katsuhiro Miura's forged irons. Could it be that the
inspiration for his newest wedge came from his own hands? The sole of the
new K Grind wedge is "fluted" which bears a striking resemblance to
finger-tip impressions, or even human knuckles. These three channels
reduce the resistance against the wedge in sand, thick rough, and even the
fairway. The sole of the wedge moves with the grass instead of against it.
The channels move around the sand instead of colliding with it. It allows
the
wedge to accelerate thru the ball with less effort in every condition to
improve the odds of hitting a good shot.
Characteristics of the K Grind Wedge:
* Better results out of wet sand.
* Reduces the odds of "catching it heavy" on long bunker shots.
* Better acceleration on ½ and ¼ swings around the green.
* Digs it out of deep rough.
* Works great in normal conditions.
