i just got the CG1 BP 2 days ago and i played them for the first time yesterday. and during the round i noticed that in places on the club head, namely the hosel and back, it appeared as if the finish was getting scraped off by the other clubs. I took extra good care of them, no banging around or anything, but i found the scrape marks. So my question to others that have the CG1 BP, or maybe if u have CG10 in the BP finish, is this considered normal? i have never seen anything like is in my old set of 735CM chrome, maybe its just a natural part of the black pearl finish?

As I understand it, the Black Pearl finish is supposed to be very durable and multiple layers thick. It isn't supposed to wear away over time like the Cleveland gunmetal finish. I'd call Cleveland customer support and see what they say. You might have received a set that wasn't finished properly.

    • Day 18: 2026.01.20 Continuing work on arm raise during backswing. Starting to feel less weird, especially the slower I go. Looking like a busy week so might be the weekend before I can hit some balls.
    • It’s possible the graphite shaft has a small internal crack or a delamination. Tapping it and hearing a vibrating sound is usually a sign the shaft isn’t behaving as it should. Since the store wasn’t helpful, consider taking it to a club fitter or a pro shop that can check the shaft flex and integrity. If it’s defective, you might be able to get a replacement from the manufacturer.
    • It’s interesting how much a 3D system changes your understanding. Observing top players in full detail and realizing the trail knee shouldn’t fully extend is a great example of why being open to new info is so important. I like your approach: not trying to be “right,” but trying to teach correctly based on actual evidence. Makes sense why golfers would benefit from this perspective.
    • I would say both are equally not the best for golf. Is it better than nothing, sure.  Golf is an athletic motion. Professional golfers are doing a comprehensive workout routine focusing on strength, power, flexibility, stability. They might include some yoga into the routine. I would put both of them in the recovery bin, not golf enhancement bin.  If you want to increase swing speed, core strength, longevity in golf and life, then lift heavy weights.
