Geocoustic technology reduces sole volume which enables a larger, more forgiving face.
Key Features
- Twist Face Technology opens on the high-toe and closed on the low-heel to produce straighter shots on those mishits.
- Hammerhead Slot Makes the sweet spot bigger, increasing ball speed and forgiveness across the entire club face.
