60 Deg Gun Metal 900 Form Forged
Strength:
None
Weakness:
None I play Titleist 962Bs (great irons), however found the Cleveland gun metal too light for my liking - poor distance accuracy. It was however great for short chips. Changed to a Vokey 260.12 and found it to be A1. Similar Products Used: None |

900 RTG 60* Low bounce
Strength:
None
Weakness:
None I been hearing some many nice comments about it I had to get one. After trying I can say is about what I expected from Cleveland wedge, which is great. It is definite soft, softer than even the 588 gunmetal I have. However, this is the first time I am playing with a low bounce and found it too easy to bite into the grass and the sand. This is a great club for those seeking a soft feel with lots of spit and bite. It takes off a thick layar from the ball, even a distance ball everytime. Customer Service none needed so far; but heard they are excellent Similar Products Used: Cleveland 588 Gundmatal 53* - can''t play without it Hippo Oil Can finish - cheap and solid PureSpin - Not as advertised |

Strength:
None
Weakness:
None As a 90s shooter, I''m not used to stopping shots quickly or hitting bladed clubs at all. But I have no trouble hitting this family of wedges solidly. While my swing won''t make the ball spin back, I can get it to hit and stop right away--something I''ve never done before. Even range balls sit down nicely on a full shot--even with MY swing. I got low bounce models wherever available because I use these wedges mostly off of firm fairways and I''ve never seen "fluffy" sand in 47 years of play in southern California. Shots with the 52 gap wedge go long and feel crisp and make me want to replace the PW in my Titleist 981 iron set with a Cleveland model 900 47, which Cleveland tells me will be out this month. The 54LB, a strong sand wedge, perhaps is my favorite, and will be the normal sand wedge in a 3-wedge system; even good range balls hit and stick for me at 105 yards with this club. The 56LB will be the main-stay sand iron in a 4-wedge system, and I''ll want to have the 60LB in there with either system. I bought a Cleveland model 588 RTG 64 (reviewed separately under "RTG") because Cleveland doesn''t make (and apparently won''t be making anytime soon) a model 900 beyond 60, and it complements the 900 set; I like the 588 64 a whole lot for shots inside 65 yards, but it may be hard to find room in the bag for it on all but the shortest regulation courses. Playing and practicing with these wedges is just plain fun. Customer Service Cleveland has a very useful and interactive website. You can call their 800 number listed there and get good answers from real people, right now. Similar Products Used: Titleist 981 PW; Ping Karsten I PW and SW; Ping Eye-2 LW |

60 degree
Strength:
None
Weakness:
None A word of advice regarding bounce. The 60 degree comes in a low bounce (6 degrees), and a standard bounce (12 degrees). You better either have a very shallow angle of attack or be a very skillful wedge player in order to handle the low bounce version. I''m a pretty good wedge player, but the low bounce version really dug into the turf for me. On the other hand, the 12 degrees of bounce version could handle tight lies, which surprised me. It was also far superior out of heavy rough (as you might expect). These are very good wedges, but pay attention to the bounce -- it can make a big difference in playability Customer Service Not used. Similar Products Used: Vokey, which I found very harsh feeling. |

Absolutely the finest wedges I've ever played. Extremely soft and you are always in touch with the club head while swinging. Gunmetal version is awesome (especially with setting up). Using the 52* and 56* shot my lowest round ever, a 69. Only one thing, when I had them measured for lie/loft they were approx 1* to 1 1/2* weak had to have them bent to get to the correct loft. Who really cares, great clubs. Similar Products Used: Seemingly all |

Play the 52 (gap) & 56 (sand) chrome wedges with standard bounce. Excellent quality, easy to swing and feel great. When used in combo with Callaway Rules 35 or CB1 Blue they stop on a dime and spin well on the greens. Cleveland makes a quality wedge.

This is excellent wedge from a wedge expert company. Easy to lift, control, and roll the ball on the green. Vokeys are good but Cleveland 900 is definetely better for me. A little time to get solid swing with this club. One thing I would like to mention is that the grip is bit hard, and the grip rubber chips away when I put into or pull out it from my golf bag. The price is a bit high but you can find a good deal on the net. Similar Products Used: Titleist Vokeys |
