Cleveland Golf Company
is the #1 maker of wedges today. If you're in the market for a great sand
wedge you've come to the right place.
The Cleveland Golf 588 RTX Black Pearl Wedge has larger grooves to maximize spin on critical scoring shots .
The grooves are milled to the maximum groove dimensions while conforming to USGA requirements.
The Advanced surface roughness technology helps generate even more spin on chips, pitches and partial shots from any lie.
This wedge has a wider sole width near the heel and a narrow sole width near the toe which improves bunker performance without sacrificing versatility.
The wedge has the original 588 wedge shape, the most popular wedge ever made.
With that being said, nothing's perfect. While the look is wonderful, and the play is great overall, the performance falls a tad short in at least one area. In our testing, shots from moist grass in a fairway lie with distance balls spun less than some other wedge models with the same type of 2-piece ball.
When a soft-cover, multi-layer ball is used from rough, sand or tight lie, the result is a slightly more reliable stop.
But for those players in the target handicap levels, the Cleveland 588 RTX CB wedge, with its strong look, nicely balanced weight and laser milling, could seriously help instill some short-game confidence.
