The ultimate sole bounce that pursues control:
Backspin, height and speed
The FORGED WEDGE satisfies all three key elements for wedges – backspin rate, launch height, and ball speed, as imagined by the player for excellent maneuverability for trajectory.
All factors that inhibit control have been removed, with only the truly essential functions left, for the ultimate sole bounce.
Three sole shapes to accommodate all swing types
STANDARD, WIDE SOLE, and CUT DOWN. Engineered based on thorough research on the approach styles of golfers, the number of sole variations to three, which are necessary to accommodate all swing types. Further improve your performance by selecting the sole that best suits your hitting style.
Crafted with one of the world’s best soft iron precision forging
The technology’s innovative sole bounce theory is backed by years of research. The club is manufactured in the world’s best forging factory to materialize the theory with high precision. Because of its superior functionality, PROTO-CONCEPT eliminated product errors and pursued uniformity of shape and quality.
Face Dot Milling demonstrating spin performance under tough conditions
The number of processes for precision face score line forging has been increased to achieve greater precision than machining. In addition, the newly developed Face Dot Milling produces consistent spin and improved control under all lies and weather conditions.
The reason why there are so many sole variations is that there are so many functions required of wedges. This is because it is difficult to cover every type of situation, and performance also depends greatly on swing type.
PROTO-CONCEPT pursues the functions required of a wedge to the utmost limit, and has been narrowed down to three soles that adapts to all golfers. It is designed to provide the best sole bounce effect if chosen appropriately.

The sole bounce of the wedge has infinite variations.
PROTO-CONCEPT analyzed all types of swings
and has developed three types of sole shapes to cover all.
The ultimate in the name of standard
Delivers maximum sole bounce effect
The exclusively designed “R” sole and its sole design maximizes the bounce effect of this model.
This design allows players with a relatively acute angle of incidence to feel comfortable contact with the sole and to hit the ball on the face without the sole coming off too much. On deep rough and soft bunkers with low sand density, you will feel forgiveness from the sole’s bounce effect the most.
An innovative wide sole
that provides gliding feel and forgiveness
The innovative “R” sole and the combined sole design of sole width and sole height provide this model with maximum forgiveness.
In addition to the moderate bounce effect on long shots, the gliding feel of the sole on short approaches prevents the sole from bouncing or biting when players with relatively obtuse angles of incidence make contact from the front. Experience automatic-feeling approach shots.
The sole shape demonstrates bold grinding and leaves only the effective portion of
the sole, creating a variety of approach shots.
A unique bounce effect is set up so that the feel of the sole does not change or intensify when the face is opened. This sole design allows players to easily control the launch angle and ball speed while changing the grip position, and to feel the ball ride on the face.
It can also be used for low spin shots with the ball positioned to the right, short lob shots in the middle, and full-lob shots to the left, and is highly adaptable to a variety of shots, allowing you to use the most techniques.
