Lavat toudellakin taotaan ja jyrsitään käsipelillä.
Tai ainakin näin ymmärsin asian kun Barry Smith sen mulle selitti:
’Forged means they are pounded and ground into shape. They use a softer steel and and get chunks that are roughly the right shape and size and then they use a hammer and a grinder to finish them. Very labor intensive but a for some reason, it gives you a more consistent head. ’
Taottujen rautojen tuntumasta toisaalta hänellä on oma näkemyksensä:
’Most people agree that casting and forging don’t cause an appreciable difference in ’feel’. This is a common myth. The design of the club determines feel more than the manufacturing process.’
