So... I'm looking to buy some new irons since mine are too short & tbh... are shit. So I went to the golf shop & hit some iron sets and really like the Cleveland CG Golds. The next day at practice (high school golf team) I played with the coach. I started talking to him about what clubs I should buy, and if he liked his clubs (he has the CG2s). So... on a few holes, he let me use a few of his irons, & I hit them pretty good. Basically, I read a few articles on the CG4 Tours, reading that they were almost between CG2s & CG4s.

So I'm asking if anyone here has used any of these, and if you have had a good experience with them. This and any other advice is greatly appreciated.

I've hit the CG2, CG4 and CG4 Tour. I think the CG4 Tour has a great blend of playability and forgiveness. The CG2 is definitely more of a players club but still offers some forgiveness. What CG2 irons did you try? Meaning what club, 9 iron, 5 iron, etc. Typically how do you hit your irons? If you liked the CG Gold you might want to give the regular CG4 a try. I believe the Gold's are replacing the CG4 and the Red's are replacing the Tour. I imagine both models could be had at a good price now or relatively soon.

I don't know if this helps you, but next week I'm going to spend some time with the CG Red irons.

I've had the CG4 Tours for awhile and I love them. They aren't the longest irons I've ever hit but they have a great soft feel and produce a high soft shot.

I'm happy with them.

I'm pretty sure it was an 8 iron. And before I grew another 2 inches, and my clubs became too short, i was hitting my irons really well. And yeah, the CG4 & the Tours are cheaper now, around $400 now.

I'll be interested in reading that review.

thanks for the replies.

Only reason I ask is because the short irons are easier to hit. If you are looking at getting the CG4 Tour I'd demo the CG4 as well and see which one you like better. Good luck!

    • If he had to hit over the bunker, I'm guessing he was further from the hole, although "in front of" implies the opposite.  If that's right, that may have been the right spot for penalty relief, a single PS.
    • Day 52. Trying to work on hard pan lie pitching in the rain in the yard. 
    • Did you look up any Rules before posting here? What did you learn or find? You don't get to drop (or place) closer to the hole. 16.1(c) deals with relief for Abnormal Course Conditions in bunkers. You're granted free relief for: Since you say the bunker was basically entirely full of water, you likely wouldn't get complete relief, so for free (no penalty strokes), you are entitled to "maximum available" relief. If there's a spot in the back of the bunker away from the hole where the water is the shallowest, then you can drop there. If you don't like any of those options, you can take a penalty stroke and drop out of the bunker, behind it: You seem to have played from a wrong place (nearer to the hole) and thus likely should be penalized two strokes. It doesn't sound like a serious breach, at least.
    • I feel that the stock grips on my Wilson D9's are a little thin.  The grips on my other clubs (purchased used online and sold by me a couple months ago) were Golf Pride and they looked like the wrapped version.  I will say they felt like they had a little more cushion.  I don't have particularly large hands.  Did the grips on my other clubs have more tape or was just a better feeling softer grip?  I have no idea.  Well, any brands you would recommend that have a softer feel? 
    • So this situation happened. A bunker in front of the green was full of water. My ball was underwater in the very back of the bunker furthest from the green. There was a small patch on the front upslope of the bunker nearest the green that theoretically could have been used to hit from if the ball was placed.  A drop would just roll back into the water. And this was the only part of the bunker you might be able to get a stance without standing in water. So my question is do you hit from that small front slope even though you would have to move the ball 6-7 closer to the pin? Or do you drop outside the bunker making sure you are no closer to the pin? I dropped in front of the bunker, so I had to chip over the whole bunker. Was this the right call? Also could I have moved it latterly outside the bunker, although this wouldn’t have made much difference as my ball was pretty much as far back in the bunker as you could be away from the hole.
