Smellis745 Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 I got out over the weekend and here's what I can say after some further testing... 1 - These things spin! Really taking some time getting use to the RTX4 when chipping around the green because they spin a considerable amount more than my SM7s. The ball checks much harder than before and I find myself leaving these shots short of the hole. This isn't always a bad thing, but gauging chip and run shots are taking some adjustments. 2 - I never could duplicate the gash in the ball from a sand shot that I mentioned in my initial impressions. 3 - Chips off the toe offer no difference in spin vs my SM7s. Some had asked about the milling pattern on the toe and if it would affect spin. My answer to this is, as expected, that it's not noticeable. 4 - The RTX4 52 mid is not quite as easy to flight the ball vs my SM7 51F (it's a 50 bent 1* weak).

MDGolfHacker Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Played an impromptu 18 this morning. Couldn't hit an approach shot to save my life and the putter had AHD (anti-hole disease). Even with less then good strikes with the RTX4's, they managed to minimize my mistakes). For example, I bladed a 90 yard approach, which still managed to check up before running into the fringe. With any other wedge, I would of been a few yards further into the rough. Impressive considering some of the ugliest wedge approaches I hit today.

oaks Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 I have a set of 50, 54 and 60 in this set as well. These replaced my Vokeys earlier this summer and I couldn’t be happier with them. The 54 has become my most dependable weapon in my bag. From about 115 and in this wedge is Awesome. I have the Mid Bounce on my 50 & 54 and Full Grind on my 60 to replace my old Vokey K grind. I am going to try and follow along and answer any and all questions in addition to the reviewers in this thread.

MDGolfHacker Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Played in my last round of league before the playoffs begin next week. You can read all about it here: What I wanted to point out specifically, is two shots that I hit with the Cleveland RTX 4 56*. One was a bunker shot about 30 feet to a downhill pin on the far side of the green with trouble behind and water to the right. The confidence that the wedge instills is priceless. The ball came out exactly as I envisioned it and landed it a foot behind the pin and dead stopped on the slight downslope! Missed the dang putt though The other shot was a chip 5 feet or so off the green. Almost holed out for a par save but I'll take the 3" tap in bogey. The control on the chip was fantastic with just enough check to slow the ball down and roll out like I pictured it. I've never had this type of control with previous wedges before. Also, just as a side note, I play Srixon Z*Star balls to maximize spin from the wedges. The Urethane Speed Skin does help as well for these controlled shots.

808nation Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 Great reviews and chatter about these pretty awesome wedges so far. I have the RTX-4 black finish in 52° mid, 56° mid and 60° low. Pictures showing wear after one full season of playing at least once week. I use my 56° the most, as you can see it has the most paint and scuff wear. Next would be my 52° and then there is my 60° that I seldom use, it got scuffed from hitting out of a bunker which probably had small pebbles in the sand Favorite wedge is my 56° which is very versatile, my 60° is strictly now used for flop shots over bunkers and and tight pins in dry weather, forget about playing in soft wet conditions as it digs to much for a steep wedge player. Love the feel and weight of these wedges even with the slightly smaller profile.

goaliewales14 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 As promised launch monitor data! I compared the 54* RTX 4 to a Vokey SM7 and the Ping Glide 3.0. I didn't do it to my Ping Glide 2.0's since it's a 56*. I did 5 full shots and 2 50 yard pitches. As you can see on the full shots the Vokey was spinning on average slightly higher than the RTX 4 with the Glide 3.0 not even standing a chance. Moving to the 50 pitch shots, the Vokey was the CLEAR winner with the Ping actually beating out the RTX 4 just barely. I will say that the Vokey's did feel better on all of the shots compared to the RTX. I feel that's to be expected with the RTX 4 being cast. It was kind of fun to hole one of the 50 yard pitch shots out on the simulator!

Sent from OregonMyGolfSpy Ah...I just posted that as well... 13 minutes ago, MmmmmmBuddy said: Both are cast from 8620 Carbon steel. The feel is relative. Yep...it sure is. I like the feel of both the Vokey and Cleveland wedges equally. I didn't think one felt softer than the other. Both felt great though!

oaks Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 I can't compare to Vokey SM7's and granted my SM5's were showing their age, but I think that the RTX4's spin as much if not more than my Vokeys. I also love the head weight and feel of the RTX's.
