Hirota Golf's "Raw Iron" Wedge 2026 Model Introduction With ultra soft S15C x no plating face Realized the superb hitting feeling of "the ball sticks to it"!

~From Ichikawa-cho, Hyogo Prefecture, the birthplace of Japanese golf manufacturing, to the ultimate in soft-iron forging

株式会社広田ゴルフ

Hirota Golf Co. (Headquarters: Hyogo Prefecture; Representative Director: Seiichi Hirota) will release the latest model of NAMATETSU, a soft-iron forged wedge that bears the soul of skilled craftsmanship, in early June 2026. NAMATETSU wedges are manufactured domestically in Ichikawa-cho, Hyogo Prefecture, the sacred land of Japanese golf manufacturing. By adopting the extremely soft S15C soft iron as the material and daring to finish the face surface with no plating, we have realized the "superb feel as if the ball is sucked in" and "strong spin performance" that many athlete golfers have been craving.

Four technical features of this product

1. "S15C Soft Iron Forging × No Plating Face" for the ultimate hitting feel

S15C", which is softer than conventional soft iron, is used. Furthermore, the RAW (no plating) finish on the face surface directly transfers the original flexibility of the metal to the ball. This provides a supreme feeling of a longer ball on the face at the time of impact.

2. "Sole design" that conquers the toughest lies

Tour design with the toe, trading edge, and heel boldly stripped of meat. By minimizing the contact area with the turf, the sole boasts an overwhelming "good release" even from rough or severe lies. It is a practical sole that can be swung through healthy turf in early summer without resistance.

(3) "Smaller head and straight neck" that can be swung at will

The straight neck design (FP value 6.0 to 6.5), which is preferred by advanced players and is smaller than previous models, allows the user to freely control a variety of approach shots without the neck obstructing the view, even when the face is boldly opened. 4.


4. premium finish "KINUSHIRO SATIN" for the ultimate in functional beauty

Inspired by the traditional Japanese beauty of "silk," this premium finish is unique to Ikutetsu. While expressing a moist silvery white texture, it has a practical functional beauty that suppresses the reflection of sunlight and sharpens the player's concentration.
