Difference between Cast and Forged
The fact is,
the difference between forged and cast clubs is imperceptible to even the
best players in the game. Test done with tour pros using the same head
designs, some cast and some forged, showed that even they could not
differentiate one club from the other. The difference between the two types
of clubs is in their manufacture. Forgings are made from a soft type of
steel known as 1030 or 8620 carbon steel. Forged clubs are stamped by
incredibly large dies into their basic shapes and then are hand ground to
exact size, shape and weight by skilled craftsmen. They are then chrome
plated as a final step. Cast clubs are made by
pouring molten metal (typically either 17-4 or 431 stainless steel) into a
mold. When the metal cools, the club is an exact copy of the mold. There
is little hand work done on castings. A series of polishing belts or
tumbling machine puts the finish on the cast club. If there is an
advantage to casting, it is in the cost of the finished product. As there
is not so much hand work, castings are less expensive than forgings. They
may also be a bit more consistent from club to club as each head comes
from the same mold.
Can a golfer feel the
difference? Even though cast clubs are made from a harder type of metal,
a human cannot feel the difference. Is there any pliability difference?
Not at all. So, when shopping for clubs, do not be overly concerned with
whether the club is cast or forged, but more with how it performs in your
hands. |
