IRVINE, CA – November 28, 2011 – FOURTEEN GOLF, the worldwide leader in wedge design with 38 professional tour victories in 2010 and 2011, announced today that its MT-28 V5 Wedges were played by the winner of the LPGA CME Group Titleholders at Grand Cypress Resort in Orlando, Fla.
FOURTEEN GOLF is known as a global leader in wedge design and its MT-28 V5 T.S. Wedges have most recently received one of the highest honors in the golf industry – the Golf Digest 2011 “Hot List” award. The FOURTEEN GOLF MT-28 V5 Wedges are in the same family as the award winning MT-28 V5 T.S. Wedges. They received one of the highest scores in the performance category with four and half stars, and they scored exceptionally well in the look/sound/feel category with four stars.
“We congratulate the champion on becoming a Rolex First-Time Winner at the LPGA’s final tournament of the year,” stated FOURTEEN GOLF COO Marcy Kamoda. “This determined South Korean LPGA Professional used her FOURTEEN GOLF wedges with confidence to manage tough pin positions on Sunday and break-away from a loaded leaderboard of top-ranked players to earn her victory.”
The classically designed MT-28 V5 wedge features the signature FOURTEEN “reverse taper design” but has been improved by adding a groove strategically located in between the club sole and blade portion of the wedge. This structural change allowed the engineers to move the CG to a higher more stabilizing position for more precise shots. The sole of the MT-28 V5 possesses a flatter shape with a trailing edge and heel relief. This new dynamic combination allows any player to fully utilize the club’s bounce and execute pure or solid shots out of any type of rough.
The MT-28 V5 boasts a rounded leading edge that promotes confidence at address and its clubface has been engineered so that the player can easily open or close the face. The head is manufactured with a Nickel chrome moliben alloy which conforms to the 2010 USGA regulations. It is available in both a chrome and non-plated black finish.
In preparation for the new groove policy on the professional tours such as the PGA and LPGA, the company spent years engineering a new trapezoidal shaped groove for the MT-28 V5 Wedge. This distinctively sharp-edged trapezoidal groove also undergoes a mirror-face milling process which precisely and carefully mills each groove for optimal spin.
The professionally designed MT-28 V5 is available with a chrome finish and black finish and comes in a variety of lofts, a 48, 50, 52, 54, 56 (2), 58 (2) and a 60 degree. A left-handed chrome finish model is also available. Two steel shafts, a Dynamic Golf and NS Pro 950GH are available. A proprietary rubber grips finishes these classic wedges.
FOURTEEN GOLF is a burgeoning golf equipment company that takes great pride in their tour program. The company has recently signed PGA Professionals Chad Collins and Arjun Atwal. These two additions to the FOURTEEN GOLF professional staff proves that the FOURTEEN GOLF tour program is succeeding which is critical to the company’s overall growth initiative. The feed back they receive from the touring professionals furnish key information for the research and development team as well as provides keen visibility.
