Cleveland unveils new RTX 6 ZipCore wedge

Cleveland Golf has today announced the release of the RTX 6 ZipCore Wedge, which will arrive at retail in North America on January 20th.

At the core of the new wedge is the technology HydraZip, which uses dynamic face blasts and laser lines to maximize friction in design for improved spin consistency in dry and wet conditions. Per Cleveland, R&D testing showed 43-percent more spin in wet conditions with the RTX 6 ZipCore than the previous generation.

“The RTX 6 ZipCore Wedge may have the classic look on the outside, but inside it’s packed with three technological breakthroughs that give the advantage to the golfer and not the conditions,” – Pat Ripp, Tour Engineering Manager of Research and Development.

ZipCore is a unique, low-density core that is designed to expand the sweet spot and upgrade MOI for ultimate forgiveness while pushing the Center of Gravity (CG) directly behind the impact zone, helping players find more consistent performance. Meanwhile, by adding high/low and heel/toe MOI into every loft in the line, golfers can benefit from increased spin, distance, and control with the new wedge.

The RTX 6 ZipCore features UltiZip technology, which is designed to cut through debris more consistently, with the grooves being sharper, deeper, and tightly spaced in a bid for enhanced spin, control, and consistency.

“All the work put into this wedge, we really focused on finding the perfect balance of versatility and consistency,” Ripp said.“UltiZip is a notable example. Without grooves you don’t have a wedge, so we equipped the RTX 6 ZipCore with our sharpest groove radii ever, imparting more spin and control, and now golfers won’t have to worry how their wedge is going to react in certain conditions, they’ll know.”

The RTX 6 ZipCore wedge has four different sole grinds with a variety of lofts that are developed for greenside creativity. LOW, MID, and FULL grind options are all available, but new for 2023 is the LOW+ grind featured on sand wedge lofts. This option offers two degrees more bounce in a C-Shaped sole, adding extra bounce in bunkers.

The wedge comes in Tour Satin (additional finishes coming later this year) and will be available from January 20 at a price of $169.99.

TaylorMade MySpider Tour and Tour X: More customizable build options now available

TaylorMade Golf’s MySpider program underwent a substantial overhaul over the last month. Firstly, the company launched the option to customize the Spider ZT model, and now the program has returned with the MySpider Tour and MySpider Tour X.

The revamped page now gives golfers complete control over every visual and functional detail of their putter on the popular Tour and Tour X head, with every cosmetic idea thought of. In MySpider Tour, golfers can choose from four head finishes, 16 paint fill colors, nine Surlyn face insert colors, three aluminum insert options, six sightline configurations, and four hosel options — L-neck, small slant, double bend, center shaft. Six sightline options are available in MySpider Tour, including the optically engineered True Path alignment system. MySpider Tour X gives builders the option of four head finishes, four hosel configurations, and five sightline options, also including True Path alignment.

One of the more interesting features of the new MySpider program is the availability of three distinct face insert options. Along with the usual Surlyn Pure Roll insert trusted by Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy, which can be customized from nine colors, golfers can now also select firmer options. Two are offered with the black aluminum Pure Roll insert, slightly firmer than the traditional insert, or for the firmest feel, golfers can choose from two colors of milled aluminum inserts.

Another fun addition to the MySpider Tour is the ability to use the “Tommy Sightline.” The custom alignment aid design, which was first drawn onto Tommy Fleetwood’s putter by PGA Tour Rep James Holley, is based on the milled sightline on his Spider ZT head. There are five shorter lines on the left and right of a longer central line serving as the traditional short line alignment aid.
