New Srixon/Cleveland Gear for 2019

[null]

It seems that Cleveland has finally caught up with Mizuno and Titleist in their selection of loft/bounce options.

 

The new RTX 4 wedges have genuine low bounce options that have not been available since their old 691 Series decades ago.

 

With Mr. Cleveland himself having packed off to Callaway--I assume that he's still there--someone in the ranks at Cleveland has recognized a need.

Unfortunately they aren't really options.

 

in fact, only the Super high lofts have the low bounce option.

I've been thinking of getting back to more traditional length wedges... these might be the play.

From what I am reading... these things should be amazing. The COG moves through the lofts. Hopefully it's fairly high on the higher lofts so it isn't just a moon shot wedge.

OMG, I love my RTX 3's but these have me hypnotized!

That's what most wedge companies are doing these days. Including Titleist and callaway

I see how Titleist is doing it, but it isn't easily identifiable on the Callaways. The PM grind I get but not be MD's. Even the Hi-Toe Taylormade will be rather high COG.

 

Only makes sense to me to have a tad higher COG in wedges. At least the “players” wedges. Would add a bunch of tricks to the bag.

Nothing new.  The SCOR and later the Hogan TK wedges did the same thing starting in 2011.  

 

The Cleveland RTX-4 looks nice, and I'm intrigued by the XLow.  The Callaway MD-4 is OK, but the TaylorMade Hi-Toe will not work on my turf; the leading edge bounce is just too much.

Callaway has the holes they use to redistribute weight

[Shankster]

Oh yeah. The holes. Well my TM's and the cobras I had were just moon shot clubs. All the weight deep in the sole.

 

And yes the Scor Wedges and TK Wedges definitely have weight moved around. But those are gone now and it's a real bummer.

I had the RTX3s and hit them well, can't wait to see these wedges in person.  Currently playing P790s and Milled Grind wedges and I am enjoying....but I have a soft spot for Srixon/Cleveland

 

Had a set of 745s, miss them terribly.  Then got 545 long irons to go with them, regret selling that whole set.  I had two sets of the 65 series...one a combo of 565/765, and the other a combo of 765/965.  Again, I regret selling those.  I've played a lot of irons in my day, but the Srixons are near the top.

Just saw a video from Dunlop Japan that has Keegan, McDowell and Knox all hitting and talking about the new X85 irons.

 

The 785s look incredible

Anything on the 9 series?

Nope. Video just had 585, 785 and u85

Dang... sounds like the rumors are true then. Or maybe... they are going to have Cleveland MB's make a comeback???

 

That would be received pretty well I think.

[GolfSpy Barbajo]

No 9's -- no meaningful update for a blade, so they didn't do anything with it. It'll stay in the lineup unchanged for the foreseeable future.

Restocked? I see they only have 3,4,5,6 irons singles on the website.

[Har in the Hat]

What I really love is the choice for us lefties. This is worth a look.

I love the look of these.

These speak:

" Watch and learn. This is how it's done."

Great write up Barbajo. thanks

[chemclub]

While they get a lot of deserved credit for their irons, I think their woods nail it in terms of looks too. I have only hit their 3 wood, would love to try their driver but it can be tough to find one near me. Cup face - love it.

I talked to Ian over the weekend about these.  The delays on the 565/765 lasted long enough where he had a chance to see and hit the 85's  He told me he wouldn't blame me a bit if I want to wait a couple more weeks for those.   And said he's fully confident they will be just as good for me as the 565/765.

 

So yeah, I'm waiting!!

[Har in the Hat]

These new wedges by Cleveland are gorgeous and am very interested by these.

Anyone else?

 

 

MyGolfSpy has written an article on this if anyone is interested. Another great write up by John Barba. Go to mygolfspy and read this article. It is awesome.

[Miboy62]

Those are some sharp looking wedge's.

Because these are coming out I picked up two brand new RTX-3 for $50.00 ea.

[Shankster]

Yes. This hit the part of my brain that says... finally!

 

Classic looks, great stock shaft...

[Kenny B]

My SCORs are 5 years old; I love them.  But yes, I'm seriously looking at these.  

[LoganT]

@Miboy62 if you don't mind me asking, where did you get the RTX-3 for $50 new?
