What TaylorMade say about the Milled Grind 3 wedges:

“Wedge technology has evolved. The new Milled Grind 3 features RAW Face Micro-Ribs, engineered for added face texture to deliver spin around the greens and added precision on partial shots.

“There’s a reason RAW wedges are preferred by the game’s best players. The unplated material will rust over time to preserve consistent spin while also delivering better performance in wet conditions.

“With RAW Face Technology, only the face will rust while the rest of the head maintains a premium finish.

“RAW Face Technology designed for increased spin and feel with sharper, narrower and deeper grooves in the face, as well as laser etched precision.

“The face rusts over time, preserving spin properties and providing the time-honored look preferred by many Tour professionals.”
