I'm looking to add either a 56 or 54 degree wedge, as I learned that I was a de lofting my 60, and with my new grip it isn't quite what I want for bump check shots. I play cleveland irons, cleveland woods, and have a 50 degree cleveland gap wedge. My 60 degree is a vokey. The pro told me his personal favorite for spin is the new cg 14. Others have said the cleveland X md grove'd wedge is great. Or maybe another vokey? Thoughts?

In the bag:
Driver: r7 quad v2 stiff
3-Wood: XLS
Hybrid: X
Irons: CG Golds 3-GWSW: x forged 56/13LW: Vokey sm 60/.08Putter: Callie 35''Ball: pro v1

I dont get any amazing check out of the clevland line.. the zip grooves that is, atleast no more than my vokeys.

id recomend the vokeys,taylormade TP's or z's, or the callys, but they chew up balls.


Note this, unless your making good contact, none of these are going to help you spin the ball..

I have had the TM zip grooves and I have the spin milled vokeys and I love them both you cant go wrong with either one of them.

Am I mistaken or are Zip Grooves part of the Cleveland line?

Taylormade does it now they are called the z wedge

I was aware of the Z Grooves, but looking at their website, they arent called Zip Grooves. That is why I got confused.

I'd say Titleist Spin Milled or Taylormade with zip grooves.

Cleveland = Zip Grooves

TaylorMade = Z Grooves C'mon folks, let's get 'em right.

I really didn't like the CG12, weird feel and after reading reviews wasn't really interested in it. TM Z TP gives lots of spin, as well as the Spin Milled. Definatly try both.

    • That's part of why faster greens reward better putters. Given time to acclimate, golfers of any level (not talking about utter beginners or people who can't break 100 often) putt better on faster greens.
    • Smoother greens rewards better putters. The faster the green, the bigger the error in distance control. But, if you make the greens too slow good players are not used to hit the ball that hard so it can make them struggle a bit.
    • Day 11 (August 21).  Practice session this morning;  chipping for a while (focusing chips that aren't "on the number" for me --- I'm very comfortable with 20 and 25 yard chips, less so with 15 and 10).  Then full swing work, shared a small bucket.  For my share, I was focusing on setup and where I'm aiming.  It dawned on me that I've been hitting some really nice drivers and woods lately, as far as contact, flight, and distance, but not getting them where I want them to go, and the conversation from yesterday's Spin Axis podcast (nice to finally be caught up!) made me realize I wonder if I'm adjusting my aim for the difference in swing path.  I definitely put my woods closer to my intended target line today;  not sure if that means I'm adjusting for a pull or aiming correctly though. 😕 
    • Tied my season low with a 79 at an away course.  Nothing spectacular on the front (3 pars, 6 bogeys), but on the back I had 3 birdies (should have been 4 as I missed a putt from 5').   This round almost dropped one full shot from my index....from a 13.4 to a 12.6   Also....just a on side note, I have a consecutive 72 hole streak currently on playing the same ball.
