Manufacturers should always let TXG test first because they offer the most thorough and impartial testing on RUclips.
I’ve watched almost every video and I still can’t figure out if they have an biases towards certain brands.
Maaaaybe Mizuno but only because Chris Voshal is such a regular character on the channel but even then you don’t see them pumping up Mizuno clubs a lot.
will save you the trouble Adam, we don't. We respect performance, could care less what brand it comes from. You will see inside access and exclusives from certain brands at times, but that's because they've been good enough to grant us that - if we could get that access from every company we'd be super happy
I've been waiting on a review of the bettinardi wedges for months.......knew these guys were gonna give me what I wanted......this channel has been extremely helpful to me
@@mazzerattimike8695 I’m definitely considering the Bettinardi wedges. So few companies make forged wedges and theirs looks the best. I’m between them and Mizuno T20. Bettinardi looks nicer and I like the milled grind, but costs a bit more and you can’t get as much custom options. Only one grip to choose from. If the feel of the Zipcore is nice I might go with them
@@adamboyle3331 Hogan also makes forged wedges with the Equalizer line. Ping has the glide forged but the Bettinardi and Cleveland look better than the Ping. There are not many, though.
RTX, the first wedge with ray tracing
Been playing Cleveland wedges for 15 plus years, still my favorite!
You guys beat Cleveland sponsored Mark Crossfield.. OUCH!
There’s a new king.
Mark who? Never heard of him lol
Adam Boyle there’s also the company embargo. Mark has a video out now, too.
As always, you guys are top notch with your reviews. Appreciate the work put in to provide unbiased feedback. You guys are true pros.
I only play Cleveland RTX wedges and it's my favorite clubs in the bag along with my srixon z785 irons. Such an underrated brand!
The best review channel on RUclips. You guys crush it and I always look to you guys first before buying.
You guys are the best! Most channels that mainly talk about numbers usually put me to sleep. You guys make it interesting, entertaining, and informative.
Always love to see TXG’s subscriber number rise, because I can’t think of many other channels with the same commitment to being honest that these guys do.
I love Cleveland wedges. I've tried almost all of the wedges on the market and I always come back to Cleveland. I've had all the RTX wedges through the years and can't wait to put these in the bag.
Definitely first out of anywhere. Excited to see the results, Cleveland and their new branding/ads really get the buyer motivated with the enthusiasm.
I think the "wet test" should be included in all wedge tests going forward.
I can’t wait for this channel to go more mainstream and gain a ton of a subscribers. Don’t know anyone in golf that deserves it more.
I totally agree!! 2 very knowledgeable guys with no ego, just good solid content... If anyone deserves a boom in views, it's these guys!!! 🙌🏻👌🏻
Wedges are getting a lot of attention from every manufacturer and it’s great to see! Another one to add it the list to test! Can’t wait to see the wedge off!
Can’t wait to see the outdoor testing ! They’re 🔥🔥
Great show. I love the old shape of the original rtg.... these new wedges look like so nice!!!
Exciting product. Great review and look forward to the wedge-off!
Thanks for the review. I pulled the trigger, replacing 10+ year old hand me down Cleveland wedges from my Dad (which were great) and got the Zipcore 56 and 60 degree for the new season. Should arrive next week!
I got the cbx2 wedges after you're excellent review of them. I have a pretty decent short game as it is......but its even better now. Always been a fan of Cleveland.
These look first class. Love the content lads!
Geez these look nice! Great video looking forward to seeing these on a course 👍
I'm so getting these when they come out. Awesome.
I love Cleveland wedges. Had the gunmetal 588s from pitching through lob for a good while. Great to see them churning out quality stuff. Looking forward to the outdoor "Wedge Games" gents 😊
Just purchased 50, 54, 58. Always used Cleveland hard to see myself using any other. Cleveland fits my eye and I like the shape...also I get more response/feedback from Cleveland. Thank u for the review. I make a lot of decisions on your reviews, haven't been wrong yet!!!
Those look mint! Will love to test them out!
They look sweet, looking forward to the wedge off!
just ordered my zipcores. i’m excited and impressed with how they sit when i tried them.
I really enjoy this channel and honestly hope it always stays at this calibre. There are buckets of other channels that feed to the masses and are certainly successful at that, but this is just brilliant content.
Great review guys, need new wedges and now I might have to wait a bit longer...
Always favored Cleveland wedges. I currently use the CBX2s for GW and SW and the RTX4 for LW. Both lines are money! Great review TXG!
I think it’d be really cool to see a wedge fitting where you guys talk about what changes to those tour grind wedges could benefit a golfer.
I saw dark ones of these and they look amazing.
Great review and I think I will be changing before the new season.
I LOVE my RTX4 - best wedges I ever used, throwing darts under 120 yards! super consistant and buttery soft - got them with the nippon modus 3 tour120 stiff shafts and the combo is just superb!
Matt hit these wedges so well, he'd be crazy to not put these in his bag.
Finally Cleveland has decided to compete again in the top wedge market. To have walked away from their #1 position was insane. Custom grind Raw Clevelands - you basically had to be a sponsored pro to get that service - amazing.
Matt is a Machine! Would LOVE to see a slomo video on Matts swing from front and back with his Driver and Iron!
Love the content keep it up 👍🏾
those look amazing, and in lefty, extra points for that. Playing the smart sole wedges now but feeling like its time to step up my wedges.
Great review as usual!! But can we please get a tutorial on that 60 yard shot that Matt was absolutely nailing lol..
SM7 was probably my fifth or sixth generation of Vokeys and I loved them. I decided to try these after seeing this and some other reviews and was amazed how good they are, though I have only played two rounds with them so far. I got a 54 deg Full and 60 deg Mid and have never had Vokeys feel or spin like these do. The shaft is probably a big part of it. I guess we’ll see when the SM9s come out, but I expect at least a year of great wedge play. If only I could putt.
Love my rtx4’s will be interesting to test these out.
Got a feeling these will fly out the shop!!
These look great. Great Review. Is there any thought on reviewing any of the Cobra wedges?
Love it Fellas! Those will replace my RTX4s next.
Interesting review. Given the impact to spin because of a wet ball/face I'm surprised we didn't get to see that as part of the review.
Looks appealing! I wish TXG also reviews the raw version as well just because I'm thinking of ordering one.
Knew this was coming when Cleveland sent out an email offering RTX-4s at $99 stock a few weeks ago. With a modest upgrade to graphite shaft, midsize grip, and a bit of color the price was still below prior full retail for the 58*, replacing an RTX-3. Just went back online to do the same thing with the 50* and 54* after two rounds and a range session with the new 58. Great deal on some fine clubs, and the new model looks at least as impressive.
I figured as much as well. Just picked up a few RTX4's for the $99 price tag online. I don't mind being a half or whole version behind the current stuff as I'm not a touring pro but there are some good deals to be had on the slightly old stuff.
That’s the craziest swing ever! I wish I could swing like that!
Idk if you’ve already done this, but you guys should compare those new plastic tees/normal plastic tees vs. wooden tees to answer the question that keeps me up at night! Love the videos
Srixon/ Cleveland had a demo day at our course a couple weeks ago. I was able to peel the wrapper off a Tour raw 56. Felt really good, and the spin was higher than the SM7 I’m playing. Probably because my wedge is a year old. I will be picking up a set of these at some point this year. ⛳️🏌🏽♂️
Looking forward to the wedge off. I've always had the Cleveland wedges but recently switched to the ping. Wish I waited for a bit longer.
These look fantastic. I still game CG15s since I bought them and then didn’t really play much golf again until this year. If I put enough wear on them I might move from CG15 Zip Grooves to Zip Cores! Lots of zippiness!
"Zip Core" sounds like a new music genre
I think ZipCore played Glastonbury last year on the Pyramid stage, Very Heavy Metal, with a great Groove!
I always think of Cleveland wedges as a benchmark/iconic and what good golfers played. Like Scotty Cameron putters or the Big Bertha.
Yes! An outdoor wedge competition! I have a wedge fitting booked at the end of July, perfect timing for this. Please tell me the Bettinardi HLX-3.0’s and the Mizuno T-20’s are included!
Have you hit the Bettinardi’s!?
I see cleveland wedge review on TXG, i click and rest of life goes to standby👍
Picked up a 58 today...only hit it 6-8 times on the range but it was lovely and a huge difference in the 60 RTX-3 I replaced
Cant wait to see the vlog that you are mentioning ie wedge off, wet ball data, etc
I play RTX but looking at these i can my RTX 3 being upgraded or wedge off against Mizuno T20s that i have had a fitting for 💪💪💪👍👍👍🙂🙂🙂
I recently played my Zipcores (58, 54, 50) omg there is a ton of friction. Love them, smaller head, still have to get used to the shaft, pulled a couple to the left. But wow I like it better than any wedges thus far
I don't know which of you came up with that intro tune or if you found it somewhere, but I love it. Also saving up some cash so I can come get fitted by Ian next year after all the new products drop.
Ahhh sweet this is the review I am gonna trust
Time to upgrade my RTX 3 wedges. Better tell my wife to expect to some charges to my visa. Lol. Love this vid guys :)
Would love to see a comparison with the RTX ZipCore, Bettinardi HLX 3.0, Vokey SM8 and Mizuno T20. Make it happen boyz!
I've used Cleveland wedges since the Tour Action 588's and they're on the whole just awesome... There's been a few crappy iterations over the years but generally awesome clubs....😎 The only thing that's let them down sometimes is the shaft label and grip alignment! I've had some shockers over the years... 😬
Thanks TXG great review. Would like to see Ben Hogan wedge test .
Anyone else excited for RTX4 going on sale for sub $70?
Yes! Where?
Can get em for 80 or so right now. Check rockbottom and places like that.
You released your ZipCore video 3 hours before Mark Crossfield. So yep, first golf RUclips channel (that matters) to review them!
Looking forward to the wedge off,would love to see a head to head with the Ping glide 3.0
Love to see a test on the mim cobra wedge
They’re the wedges I’m playing currently. Absolutely love them. Distance, feel and chipping/sand play are all fantastic.
Just swapped out my 58 zipcore for a 58 full face zipcore (1 degree higher at 59 and 1 degree flatter.)
I tested them pretty hard against each other and found that on short 20-30 yards chips, the full face was consistently getting more spin, often as much as 1000 revs more. I’m never giving up spin around the green so I have made the swap.
I never hit further than 50 yards with my 59* (would always play a gentle 55* for 50+ yards) so the looks don’t offend me at all. I wouldn’t want to take full swings with it, just cos it looks too big. But for little chips and bunkers I am super impressed tbh.
Cleveland make some of the best wedges IMO, and this just adds another good option.
Could you please offer some insight to the performance differences in the C grind and the mid-V grind you discuss? How would the differences show up on the course. Coming from CBX model with no grind options, so this part is always confusing. Thank you for the great content.
So, do I continue with my wedge fitting early July, or do I stick with my 10 year old Cleveland 588s (that have zero grooves or spin left!) until September, when these get released in the UK?!?!
Just got rtx4 raws. Played 4 rounds. The spinniest wedges I've ever played. Cant imagine having more spin.
Need to get fitted for wedges in New York, any suggestions? Going to go for these I think!
Can you please make a video about your opinion on pureing and/or shaft spine alignment? So many different opinions online. Thank you👍
Are you just testing the zipcore or will you compare them with the bettinardi, id love to see them face off like you do with drivers / fairway / utility.
Smash factor goes from 1.2 from the full swing to 0.9 for partial shot, on partial wedge shots would a 1.0 smash factor be ideal for distance control? If so any wedge out there that achieves this better then another?
Every new release should be demoed by TXG 👌always top notch material and none of that click bait 💩
Love this... knew this had to be coming because i just got new rtx4's.. :(
My bet is RTX4 will go on sale for $70 within a month
Cleveland wedges generally don't fall in price too much when a new release occurs, at least not in the uk, so I don't think you've made a boo boo, Rtx4 is a great wedge!!
I love my RTX4... I’ve been Cleveland wedge guy 10years... I’ve tried Vokey and Ping both great but For my eye the Cleveland Shape just gives me that little extra ...
So I have CBX 2 wedges... I know you had tested those and liked them pretty Well. How do you compare the two and is it worth losing the cavity back in going with the zip series? I’m still in my trade-in period So I could get rid of my CBX twos and upgrade. What say you?
So I'm curious how these feel compared to the SM8s? I just got fitted for new wedges, and it came down to the RTX4 and the SM8s, and the SM8s just felt better (firm yet soft, whereas the RTX4 felt a bit dead / flat on impact). Hence I'm curious if they made these feel a bit softer?
I’ve just a few days ago traded my sm7 for zipcore, 50-54-58, the Cleveland ZC wedge is so soft off the face and in my opinion, I have better control with them.
I play off 3 and have used vokeys for 7/8 years…
I think the water on the face test should be standard in every wedge video review. Would also like to see that on iron shots as well because conditions on the course are never like they are in the sim.
T-20,ping glide 3 or these new Cleveland wedges is what I’m looking at. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Zipcore? Anyone remember normcore 😂. We are living in a golden age of equipment and testing. So many good choices.
C taper lite x in mizuno irons and wedges..put the same shafts in these or the standard spinner?
@TXG ... So which are the BEST? Bettinardi HLX or the RTX Zipcore???
Another great vid marks another day wondering what actually is under the dirtydog tab 😭
So if your just looking for quality wedges but not sure about what bounce, is there a basic recommendation for the 52, 56 and 60??
You guys are the first!
🙌🏻
OMG I like smaller wedges and I love the shape of Cleveland wedges
Zipcore VS Glide 3.0 please. Might want new wedges and doing your own testing is really difficult these days.
I will definitely try these to replace my 588
This sounds very interesting. I am from Singapore, how can I procure through your guys?
you guys are obviously really impressed with this wedge. what were the big takeaways from this initial review? tight std dev on the spin from shot to shot? tons of spin on the partial wedge?
standard deviation, great spin on partials, looks really good at address
Will love to see the 2020 wedge off!! Will the glide 3.0 be included still?
this will be a little head to head with me and Ian using the RTX zipcore specifically
Should we be doing wet level testing now with Wedges? Are we at that level of wedge technology that we should expect more in wet conditions?
Great looking Wedges!
Have you guys tested Miura wedges? You should do a wedge competition.
wedge off with Ian and Mattie Boy - down and dirty may the best man win!
