Thanks Andy for highlighting this club! The Cleveland CBX series should be in many more golfers' bags than it probably is. I have gone away from blade-style wedges over the past couple of years and really enjoy that forgiveness that Cleveland offers.
These are great wedges - I don't know why so many golf snobs always try to find something negative to say about Cleveland products.
Because they think they got game, but a VERY small percentage of em do.
I bought the Cleveland Smart Sole Gap wedge. Club is AMAZING.
Full face grooves were one of reasons I went with a Tour Edge Houdini sole 56 as opposed to the Cleveland Smart sole sand wedge 58. I don't carry as many wedges anymore either.
CBX wedges are amazing! If you try them on a tight lie, especially in the summer when it's dried out, it still picks it clean.
Would love to try these. Very curious on the shaft. Purchased new Smithworks this year and love the full face grooves so far.
I’ve just switched over from Callaway Jaws to the Cleveland CBX Zipcore, standard not full face. I love the forgiveness particularly on the heavy ground courses I play locally. I agree with you Andy, the full face shape put me off and the visual on the loft angle messed with my head a little too.
Great review...Could you do a comparison between these CBX wedges and the Mizuno S -23 wedges and give us your view point on them????
As a high handicapped player they look perfect to me. Nice teardrop shape with full face of grooves. Looks like they are super easy to open the face up and catch the ball still and I am sure that they are cheaper than the top end wedges like Vokey ???
Andy: When you do club reviews, toss up the spec onscreen of the one you are testing. It looks liked you had a graphite shaft in the wedge. Was it stiff or regular?
I went to regular a few years back in my wedges and it improved my touch around the greens. Using a stiff felt like a cricket/baseball bat with no "give".
I'd recommend this for all seniors out there. I had to order mine as you won't find an off the shelf wedge with a regular shaft.
Full Face grooves in the Gap-Sand range are great for open-face bunker shots - this is my Get Out wedge for sand. I rarely catch the far toe with 'normal' wedge swings, and I'm not opening the face for shots I should just wedge up on.
Feel is way better than the last gen. I've got RTX6 in the 60 and I have 0 interest playing that sole at the beach in my 54. Really wish that Mizuno had done a Full-face version of the S23, I loved hitting that wedge from the fairway but it felt messy in the dirt.
Full face on a 52 is helpful when I chip it off the toe intentionally from the short side. I would consider getting them.
Andy, How do these compare to the Smart Sole 4.0? I just picked up the C-wedge.
I'm a Mizuno iron & wedge player (old S18, then T20s) - will be ordering a new S23 58. That said, my current 80% goto wedge is a T20 56/14 that I've bent to 52/10 for the C-grind to be as useful as possible around the green for pitching & chipping. I've just ordered this new Cleveland CBX2 Fullfaced 54/12 C-grind, to be bent to 52/10, with a non-upcharged heavy S400 Tour shaft. As a 52/58 player, I think it's very important to get a C-grind on your 52 to make it more useful. I'm a scratch player & I think this new CBX2 is almost a cheat code.
about to order a 50, 54 and 58. I wasn't sure about the graphite version but i'm going for it
About to order some myself. How are the graphites treating you? Any difference?
If you don’t like the look of that high toe, the standard CBX shape will suit your eye better. The toe of this club very much reminds me of the Callaway Phil Mickelson PM grind they used to run a few years ago which bares a strong resemblance to the old Ping Eye 2 LW Phil would put in the bag from time to time.
In Winter Time with Very Thin Lies this would great with those 60 Yards in shots..
I've been playing a full face 56 CBX this year, sand game is drastically better. Stayed with a traditional 50 CBX and love it, numbers are always the same
I whud be really happy to have these in my bag and I whud have the groves/ full face as I very rarely hit it out the middle so I think I wud definitely it the full face andy
Wedges such a personal club, you must buy what feels right for you . . . For me that is Vokey’s - love them
Reading some of your replies to comments just needed to point out this isn’t a change or replacement to the cbx zipcore lineup, it’s an addition. The standard head with normal grooves is still an option so something for everyone whether you like full face or not👍🏻
Good point Iain and very much aware of the CBX zipcore line up, great options for all preferences!
You never mentioned the Project X Graphite Shaft
You didn’t mention the graphite shaft
Do a test for callaway mack daddy cb wedge vs cleveland cbx 2
You look so smart on new clothes Andy
The swing is looking solid matey and the performance looks like it’s there because of the swing but the club does look, is unattractive the right word? I’m very much an aesthetic player, and have high toe wedges but not sold on the appearance if these
Andy, if you could only pick one… would it be the Cleveland wedge or the PING ChipR?
Ping Chipr……I think 🤔
@@TheAverageGolfer Thanks!
Cleveland make great wedges.
Yep they sure do
What bounce was this?
Is smart sole out now😢
If i'm not mistaken, that looks like a graphite shaft or a dark steel shaft???
Only my 64° is a fullface🤗
Never tried a hi-toe wedge. Love the easy pick-up comments cos that what average golfers need help with. But it does look ugly. Unlike your super new golf wear which is very smart and being a 21 handicapper isn’t going to make me too average to treat myself to that snazzy gear
I had to look up the "spoilt", knew what it meant but it looks weird to an American eye...Spoiled...good video though
Profile not for me either
Play the cbx 2 and love them
Yes it’s an odd change IMO
You do know that the best wedge allegedly the vokey are cast so don't understand your emphasis on cast
No emphasis……but it is cast?
I'll stick with my CBX2 wedges (52 and 58) .They do everything really well and look so much better to my eye than this full face version .
Yeah, definitely not the best looking clubs. Although the backdrop for the video sure looked nice.
Always a nice video but the whole sponsorship thing is all wrong...sorry to criticise
Please explain Mark, genuinely interested in this, I am a little baffled as to why it is an issue for you?
Hi Andy
It's not an issue for me, just feedback.
Lots of businesses need sponsorship.
The way you market your sponsors is a bit cheesy for my personal taste. Chervo seem a good brand, but like most companies trying to gain a foothold in the golf market....massively overpriced unfortunately.
@@markpowell5753 I appreciate you coming back to me with some context. Any advice on making it 'less cheesy'?
It's a tough one trying to appeal to everyone...maybe just announce the sponsors rather than voice over etc?....keep the great content going and if you are ever near Bristol, I will buy you a pint ...all the best
the AVERAGE golfer reccomends CHERVO over £100 for a shirt! not an average golfer after all!
Average golfers ain’t gonna spend £115 on a T-shirt boss
I love the idea that you think you can speak on behalf of all golfers and how they spend their money 😂 I read the same comments every Jan when manufacturers release £500 drivers......but someones buying 'em? Enlighten me Boss
We see that the grooves are full on the face...do they have to write FULL FACE on the front of the club? It's like having to buy a car that says DISC BRAKES all over the hood. It looks terrible and amateur.
First off, that has to be the ugliest shape wedge I have ever seen. Next, yet another wedge video with not a 10:22 word about the bounce angle. Again, I used to be a club builder and that bounce angle on wedges is MORE important than the loft. That was drilled into my brain when learning club building, yet not a single golf club reviewer ever mentions it. Kinda odd. Wedges are THE MOST traded and sold clubs on for sale forums. And other would say I’ll take them without ever asking what the bounce angles are. This is why nobody can find a wedge that works for them. They get wedges with 8, 9, and 10 degrees of bounce and play awful with them. I am a 10 handicap and do not own a wedge with less than 12 degrees of bounce, and my wedges are the best clubs in my bag. All because I learned about them as a builder and nobody talks about it today because they don’t have a clue either.
