When facing a critical shot around the green, the right wedge can turn a daunting challenge into a scoring opportunity. Cleveland Golf’s new RTZ wedges, featuring groundbreaking Z-Alloy steel and available at Worldwide Golf, are designed to provide consistency and versatility when it matters most. Let’s explore how the RTZ lineup elevates the short game.

Z-Alloy: A Leap Forward in Wedge Design

At the heart of the RTZ wedges is Cleveland Golf’s proprietary Z-Alloy steel. The innovative material offers a lower density than conventional steel, opening up new design possibilities for improved feel and performance. The Z-Alloy’s unique properties allow for a softer touch without compromising durability. Its anti-rust capabilities help RTZ wedges maintain their sharp looks over time, a significant advantage for golfers who prefer raw finishes.

Z-Alloy also contributes to better weight distribution. By relocating six grams of mass to more optimal areas of the clubhead, Cleveland engineers shifted the center of gravity (CG) closer to the center of the face. The adjustment aligns the sweet spot precisely where it’s needed.

Tailored Performance with Four Grind Options

One of the standout features of the RTZ lineup is its versatility, with four sole grind options tailored to different playing styles and conditions:

– RTZ ADAPT Grind: New to this generation, the ADAPT grind is designed for sand and lob wedges. It features full-face grooves and a leading-edge bounce chamfer, making it a go-to choice for golfers who like to experiment with open-face shots and creative greenside play.

– LOW Grind: Ideal for tight lies and firm conditions, this grind offers minimal bounce for precise shot-making.

– MID Grind: A balanced option that suits a wide range of conditions, the MID Grind offers a blend of versatility and forgiveness.

– FULL Grind: For soft turf or sand, this grind maximizes bounce for reliable performance in challenging conditions.

Each RTZ wedge features a precision-milled leading edge, a first for Cleveland Golf. This provides consistent turf interaction, adding another layer of control to your short game.

Advanced Spin Technologies

The RTZ wedges are packed with Cleveland’s signature spin technologies:

– HydraZip: A unique face-blasting and laser-milled system designed to enhance spin in wet conditions. Configured by loft groupings, HydraZip maximizes spin across all types of shots.

– UltiZip Grooves: These sharper, deeper grooves cut through grass and debris to deliver stronger, more consistent spin from any lie.

– Rotex Milling: A dual-pass milling pattern increases friction for better spin. The pattern’s design accommodates both full-swing shots and open-face finesse shots, creating optimal spin no matter the scenario.

Durable Performance That Lasts

One of the most impressive benefits of the RTZ wedges is their long-lasting performance. Z-Alloy’s anti-rust properties ensure that raw models stay in peak condition. According to Cleveland’s testing, rusted grooves deteriorate up to 87% faster on conventional raw wedges. With RTZ, you can rely on consistent spin and control round after round.

Components That Complement

The RTZ wedges come equipped with a True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue S400 shaft, a favorite among professionals for its precise and consistent feel, and Golf Pride Tour Velvet 360 grips.
