Product Description
The Ray Forged Type R features a slightly lower center of gravity than the previous model to accommodate the feedback it got from the average players that it was not as easy to get up in the air as they wanted. Along with the lower CG, the size has been increased slightly to add a little more room for misses across the face. It still features the variable face thickness design where the thickness of the face is thickest towards the center. This allows well struck shots to be rewarded with excellent feel. The expanded sweet spot produces a smooth energy transfer with very little vibration. The interior of the head features a “Harmonized Fin” which is a special unit that helps absorb vibrations at impact to create a consistent feel. The head also features an Hexagon shape weight (5grams) that is set in the rear of the sole. This helps in keeping the center of gravity low and the MOI deep; adding forgiveness to this popular design.
The face angle is square, making it very easy to align and work the ball in both directions. This is very appealing to the better players, but the new Type R is easy enough to be handled by the average player.
