Golf Monthly Verdict

Cleveland's other products might not be as prominent in this country as they are in the US, but you'd be foolish not to try them when wedge hunting. This club's soft feel and levels of control are just what good players look for around the green. It sits tight behind the ball on the fairway, just asking to be swung.

Cleveland specialise in wedge design and they certainly know how to produce an attractive, classy looking head. This one is popular with those in the know on Tour. Made from 8620 carbon steel it features U-grooves to produce high, quick stopping approaches. The added spin control will keep the ball from running through hard, fast summer greens.
