Probably why I don't carry hybrids Too much behind it for only a 3 or 4 iron distance.
follow up question...
How many in this thread have tried something other than a bladed wedge in that slot?
Wouldnt that be the opposite of a shovel since there is no cavity?As long as the clubs don't look like shovels I'm pretty much open. I would say my visual bias really applies more to the traditional style irons... I can't wrap my head around the visual of say HB Launcher irons, but pretty much anything else, thick top line, long blade, etc., wouldn't bother me for the most part.

Well that was the beauty of the progresive set i got with Mizuno. MB/CB/HMB.......The HMBs are monsters and i was skeptical. However the look is there and fits nicely with the progression from bottom to top end.We have played together, I know you have a game that can hit most, but you are not one that moves the ball around flight wise. So the next logical question is if you can look at the larger clubs in your long irons, why go to something much less than in the shorter ones?
I need to start pushing CBX2 and/or Mack Daddy CB more on people haha - Too freaking good.I played the RTX 2.0 CBs - I know they aren't as aggressively cavity backed as the CBX and MD CB, but I can honestly say I didn't notice any issues w/ versatility. I also played a set SW/LW in two different sets (i25 and Beres)

But to answer it more specfically, anything under an 8i should be considered a "scoring club-----ish" for most golfers. I feel, and FEEL is the key word here that i have waaaaaaaay more control over where the ball could potentially go with something that is meant for precision it its design.
Lets look at this from an analogy. If im a butcher or fishmonger, im not going to use a cleaver to fliet a fish. Im going to use a precision boning or filet knife. Its more nimble. it can maneuver easily. Its sharper. Now, can i slice something up pretty quickly with a cleaver and get mass amounts of large things cut up quickly? I sure can. lol
To your point, I dont move the ball a ton left or right. Especially trying to get something to go right. lol. But i do "flight the ball or at least attempt to quite a bit inside of say 150yds.
This is true.... I guess the appearance of some sort of growth in the back of the club freaks me out? BUT, that really is my limit of visual bias... I think....Wouldnt that be the opposite of a shovel since there is no cavity?

I kind of love that club.CBX2 flies high and far.
Did one stand out to you more than the other? I've got a fondness for both brands (with a preference for Callaway).
If you mean of a style like the CBX2, I have not...yet. I haven't bought any wedges since these came out or probably more accurately since I became aware that these style wedges were available. I want to try some if I can find them in a color other than chrome, and they would likely be a good fit for my swing/faults.follow up question...

I hope more options become available for you, because they are a GREAT blend option.If you mean of a style like the CBX2, I have not...yet.

I can honestly say I hadnt until i just went and watched it over lunch. Certainly interesting data. I think the control of the two makes complete sense on full swing shots for a 56deg wedge. Id certainly love to see a similar comparison of say 46* wedges, one a blade and one from a set that is a pure cavity back. Not saying it would be any different but it would be interesting to see if there was indeed a massive difference. Id also love to see a similar comparison on greenside performance from the fairway. (since thats the only thing you can simulate in a sim session).Genuine question. Did you watch the @Canadan wedge video testing larger cavity back vs blade? What did you think about the control of the two?
I can play chrome, I just have an irrational hatred of the two or three holes at my home course where the glare off of my wedges blind me at certain times of day. It's dumb and only happens on one or two shots a round but grrr.I hope more options become available for you, because they are a GREAT blend option.
I also didn't expect there to be a ton of difference, but I DEFINITELY didn't expect the CBX2 to have better accuracy.I can honestly say I hadnt until i just went and watched it over lunch.

Id also add that I didnt think either wedge performed wildly different than the other in @Canadan demo. they were pretty much the same which is superb for the CBX2. But if im honest i didnt expect it to be wildly different. lol Cleveland makes a great product.
