We need to start this little update with a statement. You long -time readers will probably respond with a Eyeroll and December, “Art Bright Arream, we get it“Under your breath. Just be patient. For every elderly man in the fourth year, a wide -eyed beginner hopes that won’t get a swirly in the boys’ room.
Yes, raw rust wedges. Yes, rusty wedges look cute to some. No, rusty wedges don’t rotate more. Go ask chatgt, bastard or grok if you need more convincing.
Why, then, Wilson Golf releases a raw, unemployed version of his current ZM staff model?
Simple.
Because it can.
Ok, we will elaborate.
Wilson Wilson Staff Model ZM Wedges in Raw
Let’s clean something right away. It is possible, if it is not likely that a raw wedge, unemployed Can rotate more than a typical gilded pattern. Something something to say not to have an additional layer of material between grooves and ball. However, after the face begins to rust, all bets are turned off.
Wilson Golf is giving her Zm Wedges staff model a second year blow in pants offering them in Raw (they capitalize on it, but we are not; much of that already). In addition to looking good (depending on your eye), Wilson says a raw conclusion can improve the feeling.
“For players who want a more responsible feeling at your fingertips, RAW is a great option,” says Wilson Nodwell’s Wilson Product Manager. “We remove plating, allowing oxidation to occur.”
Another benefit of rust is that it will shorten the brightness of the sun. Moreover, each club will develop a unique rust model which, if you are looking for a silver lining, may be the least expensive way to personalize your wedge.
Grooves, microgrooves and blasts on the face (Oh moj!)
When Wilson Golf launched the ZM Wedges staff model just over a year ago, it was the first time Gene Sarazen finished the Grand Slam career that Wilson had a current “wedge story” to tell. Ok, this is a bit of exaggeration, but in front of the ZM staff model, Wilson’s wedges were part of the equipment service. What they missed was a groove/facial mill/facial explosion/rotation/wet swelling/bounce and ground story.
ZM staff model tells some of those stories (Grinding remain limited), especially when it comes to grooves. Wilson says ZM grooves are made using a owner process to miller grooves deeper into the face than previous patterns. When combined with an outbreak of the garnet of the garnets, grooves provide longer interaction from the ball to the face to provide constantly high rotation, even in wet conditions.
Moreover, the ZM Wedges staff model appears microgrooves accumulated on the face between each groove. Wilson says ground microgrooves add additional feeling and control.
In the past year MygolfSspy wedge testingThe ZM staff model was ranked seventh of the 26 wedges tested for durability and 11Th for rotation. A poor score of accuracy made the ZM rank 22AND In general, however,.
Now for the obvious question…
So if the wedges are created to rotate and rust hurts, why would someone want to buy a wedge that is created to rust on the ground?
When formulated like this, the question is almost rhetorical.
Well, as we said above (feel free to move up and check if you like), an unfinished face can actually improve rotation due to the lack of plating. Many OEMs are now selling wedges with so -called raw faces, only for this reason. For eager golf players who considers the wedge sacrifice, they will most likely replace their wedges before the rust becomes a problem.
Cleveland has gone a step further creating its new wedge material, called RTZ, which does not rust.
In a micro sense, Wilson is giving you a wedge that, in theory, can improve rotation immediately. Like any wedge, it will lose the rotation over time and the inconsistency of the rotation will go to the overdrive after the face begins to rust.
However, in a macro sense, Wilson is doing what most companies do when a product line hits its second and last year of life cycle. It’s just trying to jam a little to give the year two sales a little by a stroke.

If you are wondering why an unemployed raw wedge would cost more than the same wedge that goes through the additional plating process, you are not alone. However, there is a logical reasoning for it.
It’s not the same wedge. Because both have to meet the USGA regulations, gilded models, when raw, are a smaller part than raw versions. When plating is added, they become their specified size. If those gilded models were left raw, there is a chance that they will be considered non-conform.
Raw models are made to the size of the final specification. Since more gilded models are made and sold than raw models, price becomes a matter of scale, not plating.
