Cleveland CBX Full-Face Wedge
Today Cleveland announced the launch of the CBX Full-Face Wedge. Cleveland has a great reputation when it comes to wedges so the release of their newest model is highly anticipated by many. Full faced wedges have previously been released by other manufacturers such as TaylorMade with their HI-Toe wedges.
The CBX Full-Face wedge focuses on offering maximum short game versatility with the added help of the half-cavity back design.
“Our new Cleveland CBX Full-Face is a perfect way to complete our wedge line-up,” said Joe Miller, Product Manager at Cleveland Golf Europe. “It helps golfers execute the most demanding shots they’ll encounter thanks to a larger striking surface with extended grooves running across the face. It does this while maintaining great feel and the signature forgiveness golfers have come to expect in every Cleveland CBX wedge.”
The high toe profile of the wedge allows for the most aggressive short game shots perfect for sliding under the golf ball. The Cleveland CBX Full-Face delivers a unique half-cavity design with a cavity near the heel and solid muscle back on the toe, which pushes the centre of gravity away from the heel and closer in line with strike patterns for improved consistency and feel.
The face of the wedge has next level milling and expands across the entire face for enhanced spin control and improved stopping power. Cleveland has featured a C-Shaped sole grind to add extra relief on the heel and toe for more versatility when playing your shot.
Full face wedges are great for a player who has tendencies to strike the ball out of the toe of the golf club and ultimately reducing spin tenfold. Having grooves on the toe of the club means that there will be little to no spin drop-off when you miss strike the ball.
The cavity back design will entice newer and higher handicap golfers due to the extra support on strike. But lower handicap players would also reap the benefits of a full-face cavity back design wedge as nobody is immune to a poor strike every now and again.
