What Is Cleveland CG12 Black Pearl Wedge Like?

In an accidental occasion, I know the CG12 Black Pearl wedge combines classic design with advanced manufacturing processes. The small spoony head also made it harder to hit than a teardrop-shaped club. The scratches on the clubface after one brief practice session didn't help either. And its clunky feedback felt more like a Wal-Mart knockoff.





So I immediately exchanged the Black Pearl for a Titleist spin-milled Vokey. Man oh man! What a beautiful difference in feel, playability and craftmanship. Neither the balls, nor my game, have suffered from its extra spin: true zip!





The milling technology of Zip Grooves creates a larger groove volume, which channels more debris at impact than traditional grooves. This milling optimizes spin on each and every shot--making the CG12 Black Pearl Wedge with Zip Grooves perfect for players who expect optimal spin and distance control.





I think, the CG12 Black Pearl is a zoomy club! The zip grooves don't really make that much of a noticeable difference in performance. It's the slightly longer shaft that really rockets the ball into a surprisingly high trajectory. This requires adjustments. I needed a 52-degree gap wedge. But after trying the CG 12 once, I realized that it delivered the same distance as my pitching wedge.





So, we had the combination of Payne saying you’re swinging too hard, and Rocket saying the 6-iron isn’t enough. It was 188 yards and I hit my irons pretty long and we had a little helping wind. So I went with the 5-iron.





We’re paired with Paul Goydos at the time," Lytle said. "So Donald wants to hit a 6-iron and Goydos wants him to hit 6-iron and I want him to hit 5-iron. So we’re going back and forth and finally I said to him: ‘O.K., Donald, I’ll tell you what, you hit the 5-iron and if I’m wrong you don’t have to pay me. If I’m right, you pay me double.





Now I find Cleveland CG12 is the best clubs in my bag! They do exactly what claim to do. I know Cleveland is famous for their wedges and now I know why!
