Cleveland Golf is well-known for their quality irons. Is the new CG4 line of irons the right product to take strokes off your game? This will help you decide. The Cleveland CG4 irons combine the benefits of CG2 and CG4 irons to create one of the most versatile sets in golf. These clubs have a shorter blade length than the original CG4 irons, resulting in a compact head for increased workability. Progressive offset throughout the set promotes east-to-hit long irons with more workability and trajectory control in the short irons. With a thin topline, the Cleveland CG4 irons appeal to the better player's eye.
There are only a few irons that can compete with the TA6 for the dollar value including Cobra who has made that market their niche. The TA7 sold well because it was a fairly forgiving iron but still had a classic look with clean lines. The CG4 Iron is a bit of a combination of both of these. It is a larger club head with a fairly wide sole and thick top line, ala the TA6. The head shape and offset are more similar to the TA7 iron. The big change with the CG4 iron is the CMM metal that the clubheads are made from. Like the other irons and wedges in the CG family the CG4 is extremely soft. The CMM metal has a much higher concentration of carbon giving it the feel of a forged club. With the CG4 they have made a club for the higher handicap player that feels great. The Action Lite steel and graphite shafts are decent but should be upgraded for players with a higher club head speed.
While these clubs are appreciated by many players, negative comments can also be found. Higher-level players will not be as impressed with them as lower-level players, while another user has suggested that they are appropriate for a player with a handicap of around fifteen. The price of the Cleveland CG4 irons has been criticized as too high. Some have claimed that the clubs are not all that forgiving, despite the technology behind the clubs, but admits that when they do strike the ball properly the results are excellent. The size of certain of these irons has also come in for criticism; they are said to be on the large side for the average player. These complaints are in the minority, though, and the Cleveland CG4 irons are, overall, popular and well-liked by many golfers.
