Taking More Lessons and Working on Consistency
Just ordered a 54* and 58*. I’m really looking forward to these.
I ordered a 54 and looking forward to trying it out. I wanted to try it out before considering a 58 also.

Enjoy! I played them with my Srixon irons for awhile. They blend perfectly in so many ways, especially with the V-Sole.
How much do you expect to chip with them? Any concerns with the large sole for that?I think this is the right thread for these. Will be playing 46/50 degree CBX Zipcore, both with the Modus Wedge 105 shaft. Again, what a beautiful looking face.
I picked these for a few reasons:
1) Lofts - the full face wedges don't go quite as low as these. I know some folks don't mind larger gaps in their scoring clubs, but I have used 4 degree gaps for as long as I can remember, and I didn't see any good reason to change that. It's how I control distance and it's been one of the better parts of my game for a long time.
2) Forgiveness - moving to blade wedge just didn't make sense in clubs I'd also be swinging full a decent amount. With the sole and the cavity (that is actually bigger than it looks imo), these should be about as forgiving as you can make a non-set wedge.
3) The sole - as you can, it's VERY similar to the VT sole on the ZX MkII irons. It'll offer a lot of forgiveness and work through the turf well.
4) @Canadan slayed with them.

Thanks. When I was eyeing wedges over winter these were on the list but in the 54 I need a little more sole versatility around the green and found the larger sole threw me. It would then be a decision of if the forgiveness of the pitch and full swings outweighed the chipping for me.Honestly, I probably won't use them that way very much at all. I really lean on the 58'ish loft for greenside stuff. The 50 now and then for bump and runs, but that's actually a good sole for me and those shots. I like to utilize the bounce in those situations to avoid stubbing the leading edge. Just let the sole glide on top the grass and do its thing.

For any of those that went both CBX Zipcore and RTX6, I'll be curious on your thoughts on feel/sound and performance. I have an RTX3 CB and an original Zipcore. I prefer the feel of the Zipcore by quite a bit, but the forgiveness and performance of the CB makes up for that short coming.
Can't wait to hear your comparisons!Hit my CBX wedges at the chipping green and range today. CBX Zipcore 48* and a CBX Full Face 2 52*.
I was carrying a set matched GW 50*, a 54* CBX, and a 58 CBX Full Face. I decided to try something different with wedges with my Srixon bag. I stopped the irons at PW and went with a CBX Zipcore 48*, CBX Full Face 2 52*, and RTX 6 Tour Rack 56*. The 52* actually looks bigger and more lofted than the RTX 6 at certain angles.
But the CBX wedges feel great. Slightly more clicky and a little less solid than the RTX, but still plenty of great feel. Ball comes off the face exactly like I thought it would from a Cleveland wedge.
Looking forward to getting them on the course and trying to get the ball close. And I love how they look.
