SirShanksAlot Comments: I’m a big fan of the CG16 wedges, the simple and elegant design really gives them a great look. Although I like the Cleveland Niblick, I fail to see how it’s any better than any PW with a cavity-back. What do you guys think?
PRODUCT OVERVIEW : NIBLICK ($109.99 Steel & $119.99 Graphite)
Cleveland® Golf’s revolutionary short iron hybrid incorporates classic concepts with modern design. The new Niblick™ combines the best features of a wedge, putter, iron and hybrid to create the ultimate hybrid club. Specifically designed to improve scoring, the Niblick™ enables players to hit four different types of shots, including chips, pitches, approach shots and recoveries.
PRODUCT OVERVIEW : CG16 SATIN CHROME & BLACK PEARL WEDGES ($199 Steel)
Based on the shape of the tour proven CG14™ wedge, the CG16™ has a hint of offset and is slightly larger for added forgiveness. The face features the same spin maximizing technology featured on the CG15™ wedge – Tour Zip Grooves™ in combination with Cleveland® Golf’s breakthrough Laser Milled™surface roughness technology. Using the precision accuracy of a laser, each face features four perfectly calibrated texture lines milled between each groove exactly to the conforming roughness limit. This surface roughness application optimizes ball-to-face friction and maximizes spin within the Rules of Golf.
Take one swing with a Niblick, and you’ll figure out right away how different it is from an ordinary cavity back wedge. You may not like it, but you’ll know it’s different.
Hey Andy, thanks for the comment – we’ll take your word on it, and give it a try soon. Cheers.
