Innovating The Wedge From Inside Out
Cleveland RTX Zipcore

Ever since the famed Tour Action 588, Cleveland has arguably done more than most to elevate the once humble wedge to its star status of today. Wedge specialists for the past four decades, Cleveland has constantly pushed innovation in wedge technology.

The concept of Cleveland’s CBX cavity back wedges to match the forgiveness of cavity back irons was a revolution for the average golfer. Now Cleveland is carrying over that forgiveness to their tour-level blade wedges without compromising on the look, feel, and sound of a traditional shaped wedge that tour and better players are accustomed to.

Meet the RTX ZipCore. Rebuilt from the inside out, yet still true to the traditional insofar as looks and feel are concerned.

Performance is a whole other story, beginning anew with innovation and revolution that starts at the core, adding quantifiable short game consistency for better spin control, distance control, and overall wedge play.

ZIPCORE

Made from a compound four times less dense than steel, the asymmetrically shaped extremely lightweight low-density core shifts the CG to barely 1.4 mm from the centre, twice as close as before; allowing for the design freedom to shift weighting that leads to forgiveness and a raised MOI in a blade-shaped wedge.
