Cleveland CG 12 54 deg off of ebay

[Gerardv]

I just picked one up on a whim through ebay for $30.00. Supposedly, only used in three rounds. It will work nicely with my 58 degree Callaway X forged wedge and my Callaway X-18 PW.

I wanted a 52 degree but this one will work just fine.

Hopefully, the zip grooves are as advertised since my home course has greens that seem to be bikini waxed. Stopping even the softest ball is all but impossible.

The wedge is already paid for, so it's a little late to get advice on whether to buy it. I just needed to crow a little about my new purchase. To be honest, I have dreamed of Cleveland wedges since I was a kid and couldn't afford them. Having one in the bag will be nice.

Next, I plan on picking up a 60 degree wedge to replace my 58 degree Callaway.

New golf gear is fun stuff.

Awesome! I love throwing out low ball bids on ebay just to see if they make it. Usually they dont last long but sometimes you can score a deal.

congrats on the purchase! CG12s are definitely nice, my course's proshop is selling a new one for $120 I believe so you definitely got a steal, not sure why someone would want to sell one of those unless they are a ••••• for the newest gear with some disposable income. I want to pick up a nike SV tour wedge in 54 degrees but just cant seem to pull the trigger, you may have inspired me to search ebay though ;)

Nice! I got 3 CG-12's at the beginning of this season (52, 56, 60) and I love them.

The only downfall I came across was hitting full shots from the fairway the zip grooves had so much bite that I was tearing up the covers on my Pro-V1x's... After 3 or 4 full shots struck right I couldn't really even use the ball anymore! I switched to Bridgestone Tour B330's which give me the same amount of action but seem to hold up better on my wedges. Dunno if you'll see the same thing, but thought I'd give my 2cents at least.

Great wedges though, I still remember the first time I hit one and spun it back 10-15 ft, it feels pretty sweet.

If you go to Ebay right now, there are a couple selling for around $30, although the auction has a couple of hours left.

I'm tempted to try and pick up the 60degree version that is listed right now. I don't know whether to take a chance or wait until the one I ordered gets here. The auction doesn't end for a couple of hours so I have time to think about it.

This is the first great deal I've gotten on Ebay since my callaway x-18s a couple of years ago. Usually, someone outbids me right at the end of the auction. Still, I was happy to win this one.

My home course has hard fast greens so spin is a premium to score well there. Plus, I found the 58 degree sand wedge isn't the best for bunker shots near the green. There is just too much loft. So the 54 seems like a good compromise.

My SV Tour 54° just arrived today, its sweet. Can't wait to play 9 with it tomorrow ;)

That's a sweet deal. I got my 60* Vokey SM for a total of $43. Everything I've heard about this wedge is true.

[Gerardv]

Great deal on the Nike and Vokey. Enjoy. I'm curious to hear how the Nike works out. They are on sale at my local Dick's for $69. My hope is the Cleveland works out and I can pick up a 60 degree in the near future.

Growing up, Cleveland wedges were the pinnacle and I never could afford one and made due with bargain barrel wedges. Nice sob story, right?

Anyway, I fell into this one at a great price so I will finally have one in my bag. I like to carry the same brand wedges, if possible, so I will either like the Cleveland and get one to replace my 58 degree Callaway, or trade the Cleveland on a 52 or 54 degree Callaway.

Either way, it should be fun.

Got the Cleveland out today and was truly impressed. The ball hit the greens and stopped quickly. On one full swing shot it did tear the hell out of my ball, but that doesn't bother me.
