Introducing the first Interchangeable Face Wedge, the XFT from Taylor Made (Exchangeable Face Technology) So far this confidential product has remained a secret, but images and spec sheets are leaking out.The intension of the club is to allow the wedge faces to be changed, as and when the grooves wear out, or the club starts loosing it’s spin. As they have correctly quoted in the marketing, “as the groove wears, performance suffers”
The faces will be held in place by Torque Pins, that will be tightened by a 40lb Torque Wrench, to ensure that the face fits securely, and will be supported at the back with a urethane layer, to promote soft feel.Taylor Made are suggesting that most golfers will only go through one face a year, top amateurs two and tour pro will go through four a year. However knowing the tour pro’s as we do, I would think the Taylor Made Tour Van will be a very popular place if this wedge is launched.
We will keep you updated …
