I got the Cg4 irons last Dec '08. The clubheads of the CG-4 have progressive off-set which would be good news to high handicappers. I can comfortably hit the 3 iron. Feedback on poorly struck shots for the CG-4 seem to be dampened but good hits reward the player with that soft butter feel. PW is fun to hit around the green. I would recommend this set to mid to high-handicappers.
Designed for players of all abilities, and offering exceptional feel and performance, the Cleveland CG4 irons represent the biggest breakthrough in golf since stainless steel drivers were deemed obsolete by the use of light-weight titanium.
Cavity back design with a wider sole for a lower and deeper center of gravity and a higher moment of inertia to promote stability and forgiveness at impact. Features a mid-size blade with progressive offset profile throughout the set.
If you've come to the realization that you were possibly born feel-deficient, the CG4 irons from Cleveland Golf are here to save your game. Made from Cleveland Golf's own CMM?
CG4 irons have 17 times more carbon than traditional steel for greater vibration absorption and is also 10% less dense which allows for 25 grams of weight to be redistributed to areas of greater benefit. These two features work together to create a golf club that will give you a ball hitting experience you've simply got to feel to believe. The extraordinary benefits gained by using the CMM metal are compounded by the club's design. CG4 irons feature a cavity back, which gives them a larger sweet spot for added forgiveness on off-center hits. These irons also come standard with Cleveland Golf's patented V.A.S. technology to help further reduce unwanted feedback.
CG4 Pearl irons also feature a multi-layer, micro-coating that drastically reduces blinding glare while allowing the club to maintain its soft feel, bendability and resistance to rust.
The classic shape of the CG4 irons features a longer blade length, straighter topline and a more squared toe. With an optimized center of gravity, they also allow greater trajectory control for skilled players.
I think Cleveland will have a tough sell on their hands with the CG4. Although it feels great, the bulky size and large offset will turn-off the better player as will the Action Lite shafts. Upgraded shafts are available but for a price. The price tag on the Cleveland CG4 iron is way too high for the average player. These are a premium priced iron that lack a lot of the technology that competitors game improvement clubs have. They do have a great feel but in my experience this is low on the list of priorities for a lot of mid and high handicappers. The biggest challenge with the CG4 iron is trying to figure out just who it is designed for.
