    Raw

    Putters (carbon steel only) $140/head · Irons & Wedges $50/head — Full Pricing

    Pure, honest, and unforgivingly beautiful. A Raw finish leaves the carbon steel completely unprotected, allowing natural rust and patina to form exactly where you play.

    Overview

    Details & Nice to Know

    The factory plating is stripped to bare carbon steel, and the head is cleaned and left uncoated.

    With no protection, a natural rust and patina develops quickly, showing first on the sole and impact zone.

    Raw is carbon steel only.

    It doesn't need care: the rust is the look players choose Raw for.

    Good to know: it can start polished, brushed or tour-blasted; each ages differently.

    Options

    Raw options

    • Polished Raw: The bare steel is mirror-polished before it is left uncoated, so it starts bright and shiny and slowly dulls into a natural patina.

    • Brushed Raw: The steel is given a fine, straight-grain brushed texture before it is left uncoated. It has a soft satin look with less glare than polished, and the brushing softens as rust and patina form.

    • Tour Blast Raw: The steel is bead-blasted to an even matte texture before it is left uncoated. It has almost no glare, and the textured surface takes on rust and patina quickly for an aged, worn-in look.
