Cleveland CBX2 Black Satin wedges: High performance, refined looks

Published

on

“Most golfers play cavity back irons, so why not bring that type of forgiveness to your short game?” has been Cleveland’s philosophy with their CBX2 wedges, and now you can get the same short game saving technology with an all-new sleeker look thanks to the introduction of the CBX2 Black Satin wedges.

“The Cleveland CBX wedge line has been a revolution for wedges. The new Cleveland CBX 2 has made the short game easier, and now golfers will have expanded options when choosing their wedges with the new black Satin release.”
Mike Powell, President of North America Sales and Marketing at Cleveland Golf.

Cleveland CBX 2 wedges: Technology

Hollow-Cavity Design: With a hollow chamber near the heel and a heavy weight placed in the toe, the hollow-cavity design maximizes MOI and perimeter weighting for maximum forgiveness around the entire face.

Feel Balancing and Gelback Technologies: Enhanced Feel Balancing Technology along with a Gelback TPU Insert reduces vibration for a pure feel at impact.

Rotex Face Technology: Fourth generation Rotex Face Technology delivers the company’s sharpest Tour Zip Grooves and most aggressive face milling. This improves spin in all conditions, especially on half shots, and around the green when mousture is present.

Dynamic Sole: Three specialized sole grinds options.

The new Cleveland Black Satin CBX2 wedges are available for pre-order starting today and fully launch in North America on December 18. They are priced at $139.99 for Steel – Dynamic Gold 115 wedge and $149.99 for Graphite – Cleveland Rotex wedge flex.

Slab city on the Korn Ferry Tour — Lead Tape Report

Published

on

This week, we have our Tour Photographer, Greg Moore, on the ground at the OccuNet Classic at Tascosa Golf Club in Amarillo, Texas, for the 14th event of the 2026 Korn Ferry Tour season. With that, we see some great things in the Lead Tape Report as we roll into Amarillo.

Joel Thelen

Monday Qualifier, Joel Thelen is in the field this week. He has played on the Korn Ferry Tour for a full season in 2023, and he is back in action this week. A couple of clubs caught my eye this week in his bag.

First off: His trusted Titleist 816 H2 hybrid. This club came out in October of 2015, and it still remains strong in the bag. Also, take a look at this Odyssey White Hot OG 7, putting a capital S in the 7S model. This custom neck has some impressive lean for an arm-lock-style putter. The bottom of the putter is covered in tape for optimal weighting.

Mitchell Meissner

Taking a look at Mitchell Meissner’s bag this week, we have some great lead tape coverage. Top to bottom working from fairway metals, irons, and wedges. We can see on the short irons and wedges that there is tape at the base of the grip, adding a little counterbalance. Along with that, some tape on the short irons and wedges as well. Moving to his putter, he rolls the Odyssey 7 Bird putter. Meissner putts left-handed and strikes the ball right-handed.
