Just decided to add the 60 degree one to the bag as well. These wedges are outstanding ! The 48 degree one that I have had for a week earned me a birdie and another par today. These are great stuff.
Great review as always! Will you review the new Cleveland putters, TFi 2135?
I finally got one of these. I bought a 48 degree one. Its very effective from 110 yards and all the way into the green. Its amazing. I have a graphite shaft on mine. Feels really amazing. Spider Dubiel
CBX wedge is an interesting club but despite the sound idea behind it, suitability may depend on what is the main use for you: full shots or touch shots around the green. For me it is too light headed for my taste around the greens. I play Srixon Z565 irons @ D2 swingweight and a rule of thumb is 4 to 6 swingweights heavier for wedges so D6 to D8. I have a 56 degree RTX-3 wedge @D5 that is only just heavy enough, a 58 degree specialty wedge at D8 swingweight and a 50 degree CBX wedge @ D3 swingweight which just feels too light chipping and short pitches - I need to feel the head more. Feels good though on full shots. My solution: a little lead tape to bring it up to D4 worked well enough - still gave me a good feel for full shots with the cavity back benefit of forgiveness and face speed but a little better head feel around the greens. It is a compromise for me that still favours full shot usage which is the key reason I have the club. BTW, be aware that the ball comes off the face hotter than a blade wedge when chipping and again, that is not to my taste. In conclusion, with the modification, I am happy with the club for my main use - full shots (so stays in my bag) but rarely use it for touch shots. I guess its almost impossible to have the best of both worlds.
Just bought two..., 56 and 60 degrees..., made me retire my Mizuno S5 and Callaway Mack Daddy
Albert Estwick how’s the spin vs both wedges?
Raymond Cantos Increased spin for both..., better feel also.
