Cleveland Golf launches 588 wedges
Cleveland Golf has launched the 588 RTX CB and 588 Forged RTG wedges - the new face of spin for 2013
Cleveland Golf has announced it's new range of 588 RTX CB wedges and 588 Forged RTG wedges. The 588 RTX wedges combine the performance of 588 with Cleveland Golf's latest technology, the Rotex Face.
Rotex Technology
The Rotex face is a directionally milled face pattern that adds roughness, and imparts maximum spin on open-face wedge shots where the impact tends to be closer to the toe. With a more durable and advanced form of laser milling, the Rotex face now creates more friction at impact, helping golfers generate even more spin on chips, pitches and partial shots from any lie.
588 RTX wedges also feature 16% larger U-Grooves to maximise spin on critical scoring shots - especially out of the rough, sand and in wet conditions.
588 RTX CB
The 588 RTX CB wedge features a reverse C Sole design. Inspired by Cleveland Golf's CG14 and CG16 wedges, it is a wide, constant-width sole combined with heel and toe grinds to improve performance from bunkers and deep rough. The undercut cavity promotes perimeter weighting for more forgiveness on off-centre hits.

The 588 Forged RTG wedge is aimed at the more experienced golfer. Available in a Raw Tour Grind model, it features a dynamic sole for maximum versatility around the green.
Material reduction on the back of the Dynamic Sole Grind allows players to open the face with a lower leading edge for better contact on open-faced shots. The 588 Forged RTG is available in an Oil Quench finish that will rust over time for an authentic look.
Forged from 1025 carbon steel the 588 Forged RTG wedge offers an incredibly soft yet solid feel around the greens. Laser milling and Tour Zip Grooves also provide maximum control.
