【CLUB SPEC】

*Effective bounce represents the equivalent bounce angle that a standard sole would need to produce the same bounce performance as the new Canyon Sole.

【 PERFORMANCE 】

The front sole has lower bounce while the back sole has higher bounce.
A dual bounce effect produces exceptional performance and increased versatility.

The dual-bounce New Canyon Sole makes bunker shots incredibly easy

New Canyon Sole

The new Canyon Sole is designed for golfers who struggle with short approach shots, want to reduce mishits, or are seeking added forgiveness. By combining low-bounce characteristics that allow the clubhead to cut through the sand with high-bounce performance that promotes glide, it delivers exceptional results on bunker shots, particularly when striking the sand behind the ball.

Dual-Bounce

Bunker play often requires adjusting technique such as opening or closing the clubface based on sand and weather conditions. Softer sand calls for a shallower interaction to prevent excessive digging, while firmer sand requires the clubhead to engage more directly. The Dual Bounce sole is engineered to adapt to these variations, optimising how the clubhead enters and moves through the sand to deliver consistent, controlled performance in all conditions.
Previous Canyon Sole minimizes fat shots
The DJ-6 features a deeply carved Canyon Sole through the center, allowing the trailing portion of the sole to generate increased bounce interaction with the turf which results in greater clubhead acceleration. While highly resistant to heavy strikes, this design produces a slightly higher initial ball speed which may lead to a loss of control.
New Canyon Sole offers superior glide
The new Canyon Sole features a shallower profile, promoting smoother, more controlled interaction with the sand or turf from leading to trailing edge. Compared to the DJ-6, this results in improved glide through impact. While maintaining excellent forgiveness, the design delivers a slightly reduced initial ball speed which leads to more control.

New Canyon Sole glides smoothly through any type of sand

Just set up square and strike with confidence

*Opening the clubface reduces the dual bounce effect.

FR-3 Dual Bounce Performance

Initial Bounce
Front sole
Low bounce
In firmer sand conditions, the leading edge digs into the sand, allowing the clubhead to get under the ball cleanly, setting up the higher bounce for exit.
Secondary Bounce
Back sole
High bounce
The gentler canyon sole provides a smooth gliding effect helping the clubhead exit cleanly through the sand.

The reliability of Fourteen wedges comes from a wide range of functions and technologies.

Consistent High-Spin Performance
An evolved, high-spin mirror-forged face is created from an ultra-flat precision surface and laser-milled groove edges. This combination delivers consistently high spin across all lies, including wet conditions.

Pure Forging For A Super Soft Feel
Following the TB-3 FORGED's multi-faceted theater blade design, the FR-3 retains the mild feel of soft steel forgings.

Stable Head Performance
The double reverse taper blade, with increased thickness toward the topline and toe, helps minimize head twisting at impact, delivering enhanced stability and more superior spin performance.
