I’ve almost started to think there won’t be more Cleveland Golf products when I came across the new Cleveland Golf RTX ZipCore wedge.

Cleveland Golf will launch in North America on August 14, 2020, its new flagship wedge the Cleveland Golf RTX ZipCore wedge.

I am sure that you might feel that this new wedge is not totally new. You are partially right, Cleveland Golf has not changed its traditional outside design.

The foundation of Cleveland Golf RTX ZipCore wedge is a unique, low-density core that sits at the heart of the wedge. This ZipCore makes you better by shifting the center of gravity, while also boosting High-Low MOI for more stability high and low on the wedge face.

The result is that ZipCore puts more impacts on the sweet spot for a more consistent spin, distance, and feel on every shot.

Cleveland Golf RTX ZipCore wedge features Cleveland’s new UltiZip Grooves. Compared to previous generations, UltiZip Grooves are

  • 11% sharper and
  • 7.3% deeper, while also being
  • 7.4% closer together for more groove contact area.

To preserve the lifespan of our grooves, Cleveland Golf RTX ZipCore wedge also features a new heat treatment to boost durability and maintain spin performance round after round.
