Outstanding Wedges! Use Standard 52/56/60 combo and love the consistency and the increased spin. Easy to hit, come off clean and REALLY high. For the first time I am hitting my short shots with great confidence. Excellent for chipping, too. Has cut 5-6 shots off my round (was me weak point, now a strong point).I was worried about the black pearl finished compared to Chrome, but now am confident looking at the finish. Any age, any skill level will enjoy these. Brother bought same set LH and has had the same result.

I shoot in the low 80's high 70's and i love to spin the ball. These clubs are forgiving and feel pretty good but wear really quickly, and won't spin that much compared to the Vokey spin milled which is surprising because the "zip groves" are deep. The lie must be tight in order to do so. ok wedge in general but i like the vokey a little better because checking up is easier and they won't wear as quickly.

Model Reviewed: CG12 Black Pearl 54.12, 56.10, and 60.10

I recently picked up some CG12 wedges to compare them to the some of the other wedges I have been using. What I found with the CG12 wedge (and I have practiced with the 60.10 the most so far) is that it has adequate spin around the greens, launches higher than some other top of the line wedges and it is also more consistent in that it delivers a more consistent trajectory, and has good feel. I was able to hit more consistent higher shots with the CG12 than the other wedges I have been using, even on slight mis-hits. The CG12 doesn't create as much spin as the Cally X-Tour PM or the Vokey Spin Milled but it does create adequate spin around the greens. The black pearl finish will wear off the face and sole fairly quickly but maintains well on parts of the club you see at address. Over all I am very satisfied with these wedges.

Fantastic!, I did not had other special wedges rather thant the ones that came with my Ping set irons. I allways had problems with my short shots using my 56 Ping Wedge because of the ammount of bounce that these clubs have. Once I started to use the CG12 60 with 4 deggrees of bounce, everything changed. I was able to land the ball in the place that I wanted to. It feels perfect, Its like throwing the ball to the pin with your hands. I'm not concern very much if the ball rolls back 1 or 2 or 3 feet back, I prefer that it stops in the place where I want, and that is what this club makes it possible.

Tried the 56 and the 60. Both wedges are hard difficult to control and very little spin. This surprised me as the "Zip grooves" are very deep. It was hard to get the ball to check on chips, and stop on lob shots and I use a Bridgestone B300.S ball that's very soft. I ended up taking them back and trading them in for tried and true 588s. Cleveland makes some great wedge unfortunately these aren't that great.

Great wedge. Doesn't spin as much as some other wedges i have tried (tp rac and vokey) but spin is not a problem for me as i have spun my fair share of balls off the green. still spins back on full shots which is cool and it is a nice gap wedge. It is also very nice to play a little bump and run shot with it because it flies lower and rolls more than my 56* tp rac. The finish wears off after a while though but i could care less about looks if it still performs

Absolutely fantastic! I was playing a 56 w/ 10 bounce Mizuno MP Series, along with the 60 verion. I traded both in for the 56 CG12 w/ 14 degrees bounce. It's like playing with a very exact instument rathe a "club". The higher bounce definatley helped me and I will eventually pick up a 60 degree with 1 dot. I got mine used in like new condition for $80.00. I don't spin the ball alot and was worried the new zip grooves would have the backing up off the greens, but the spin seems perfecdt so far.

I can compare these directly to the CG-10's, which I have used for two years.

The CG 12 launches higher and lands softer. I didn't try to spin the ball back--I want a ball to go dead. And on very hard greens, it did--better than the cgCG 10. I did catch one thin and it screamed to the green on one hop and then died, much faster than with the cg 110--or the Nike and Vokey wedges I used before.

It also feels heavier--the head--so I felt a better sense of the club, which was most helpful on chips and short pitches, were you want precise distance control.

I prefer the 12's bigger toe, too, as many players will.

I can't imagine there is a better wedge for the pretty good to average players than this one.

THIS IS GREAT, I LIKED IT SO WELL I BOUGHT A 58 TODAY. VERY NICE FEEL, BALL STOPS ON A DIME. GOOD FOR CHIPPING OR PITCHING. ( THE KID CHECKING ME OUT WHEN I PURCHASED, SAID HE HAD ONE FOR ABOUT TWO WEEKS AND SAID IT WAS GREAT ALSO.) I THOUGHT MY VOCKEY WAS GOOD, BUT THIS IS EVEN BETTER.
