What Actually Drives Spin

  • ✔ Raw carbon surface — rougher texture = more ball contact = more spin
  • ✔ Open pore finish — grips the ball instead of gliding off it
  • ✔ Thicker core (14–20mm) — more control for spin on drops and dinks
  • ✔ Look for "raw" in the product name — it means maximum texture
