New Cleveland 588 RTX 2.0 Wedges BUY ONE GET ONE HALF PRICE!
Cleveland Wedges were the top selling Wedge brand in 2014 and this new version promises even more spin and control, the grooves are now 15% sharper and the new micro milled Rotex face gives these wedges the most surface roughness allowed. Wedges come in Low, Standard and High Bounce, the right bounce for you're particular swing type is crucial, too high can cause thinned shots and too low fat shots. Along with needing the right loft to fit yardage gaps, the correct bounce plus the options of two different finishes and either blade or cavity back, being fitted for a wedge is very important. This year we have invested in a Cleveland Wedge fitting cart to enable us to tailor your wedges to youe own individual needs.
