Cleveland CBX Zipcore Wedge

Who’s It For?

The new Cleveland CBX ZipCore Wedge is one of the most forgiving wedges in the industry. While forgiveness is a feature often touted by manufacturers releasing new drivers, fairway woods, and iron sets, golfers rarely consider the feature while mulling the purchase of a new wedge. However, the ability to pull off solid short game shots despite imperfect strikes can provide a huge performance boost around the greens. The Cleveland CBX ZipCore Wedge is a user-friendly, cavity back wedge designed for middle and high handicap golfers. 

The Tech Story

Cleveland’s engineers created several technological innovations for the CBX ZipCore Wedge. First, the ZipCore tech, found in the wedge’s name, is a lightweight core that reduces vibrations and optimizes the center of gravity. The effect of these changes is increased MOI and forgiveness on every strike. Next, a hollow cavity design with increased weighting towards the toe adds further forgiveness. Finally, Cleveland utilized the new UtiliZip Grooves in the CBX ZipCore Wedge. These grooves are sharper and deeper than ever, creating efficient performance and maximized spin.
