Golf season is in full swing, and to give its Tour athletes a competitive edge on the golf course, Nike Golf has rolled out its latest carbon steel wedge as part of the VR Forged family.

Featured in a glossy chrome finish, the VR Forged wedge is available in three different sole grinds: Standard, Dual Narrow, and Dual Wide. Inspired by Tiger Woods, the Standard Grind is for players who are primarily looking for loft, while the other two are designed for a wider sole and low bounce. The wedge features high-frequency X3X grooves laid out in a laser-etched crosshatch pattern, which adds three times the surface texture compared to traditional finished faces. The result is increased spin regardless of conditions.

The Nike VR Forged wedge is available for $130 at specialty golf retailers nationwide.
