CLEVELAND GOLF®, an industry leader in Wedge design and innovation, is excited to announce the next generation of their forgiving CBX line of Wedges with the all-new CBX 4 ZipCore, scheduled to launch in New Zealand on January 29, 2024.
Designed to help golfers chunk the ball less and hit the sweet spot more often, the all- new CBX 4 ZipCore blends seamlessly in the bag for golfers already playing cavity back or hollow Irons, while maintaining a similar swing feel in their Wedges.
“What’s great about the new CBX 4 ZipCore is that they share similar shaping and weighting to modern forgiving irons, so the transition from your irons to your wedges is going to be consistent with what you’re used to,” said Jeff Brunski, Vice President of Research and Development at Cleveland Golf. “You’ll have that same swing feel and find more consistency around the greens.”
At the heart of these Wedges lies Cleveland Golf’s signature ZipCore technology, a feature that helps reposition mass across the toe and high/low on the face. ZipCore also enhances MOI by aligning the Center of Gravity right where the club strikes the ball. CBX 4 ZipCore features a 7% increase in heel/toe MOI and 5.8% increase in high/how MOI compared to previous generations – combining for the highest total MOI in a CBX Wedge.
To ensure a pure feel at impact, a Gelback TPU insert absorbs impact vibrations. To enhance spin, HydraZip and UltiZip work together to maximize spin from any lie and in any conditions. HydraZip uses a unique laser line and blast treatment to boost friction off the face, while specialized UltiZip grooves cut through the debris with ease. Together, these technologies promote purer spin, more control, and increased consistency.
The CBX 4 ZipCore includes a variety of Dynamic Sole Grind selections optimized by loft, so players can take the guesswork out of selecting sole shapes. All three sole grinds (V-Shaped, S-Shaped, C-Shaped) feature a new leading-edge bounce chamfer to promote smoother turf interaction from various greenside attack angles and prevent chunking.
“If you’re a mid-to-high handicapper looking for a premium Wedge you can feel confident with, these Wedges are the answer,” Brunski said. “The CBX 4 ZipCore is the total package, packed with performance features geared towards real golfers looking to improve their short game without limitations.”
