The new Cleveland CG 14 Black Pearl wedges have a classic design with advanced manufacturing processes. GELBACK Technology – Gelback, Cleveland Golfs lightweight, visco-elastic, vibration-damping material, is placed directly behind the hitting area of the clubface in the back cavity. Gelback is vibration-tuned to remove unwanted vibrations in mis-hits while still allowing the player necesary feeback from the clubhead for a soft yet responsive feel. ZIP GROOVE Technology – On each CG14 wedge, the grooves are milled to maximum conforming dimensions using a proprietary CNC mill bit to create envelope-stretching geometry. To improve shot consistency, the new groove geometry was coupled with an innovative plating process – making ZIP Grooves Cleveland Golfs most consistent, precise, and visible wedge technology to date. TOUR SOLE GRIND – The wider sole design improves contact on full shots ad helps prevent digging on touch shots around the green. To improve versatitliy, each head features a tour specified sole grind that removes material from the heel and toe portion of the sole.

The Cleveland CG14 is a very sharp looking wedge. In the past, even recent past, I have felt the Cleveland wedges were a little too rounded for my tastes. I owned a CG11 gap wedge, loved the performance, but wasn’t overly thrilled with the look at address. The CG14 is a little less round in the overall shape, looking more like other ‘modern’ wedges.

The slight cavity back is concealed well, and the large face inspires a lot of confidence at address. The chrome finish on the model I tested could be used as a mirror. The grooves themselves are matte, so, reflections when addressing the ball at noontime aren’t too bad.

Considering I never take more than a half swing with a 60* wedge, I am not sure how often the Gelback technology would come into play. That being said, if I am messing around at the range, trying to shred balls, I can certainly miss the center of the clubface and end up with a painful strike with my current 60* wedge. I tried this a few times with the CG14, intentionally trying to hit the ball off the toe, and it certainly did not feel as harsh as a mis hit TM Rac 60* wedge. I could see this technology being more useful in say a 50* wedge, or your irons, but in this area…I don’t know. I would think you would want to know when you’ve missed the center of the clubface.

As I mentioned earlier, the size of the clubface really inspires some confidence. The sole of the club is also very smooth, and seems to slide over the turf or through the grass quite nicely. When I would lay this wedge down, I generally felt very comfortable playing just about any shot with it. The grind on the leading edge is quite smooth, and with the low bounce, you definitely feel as if it would be very easy to pull off lob shots with this club.

With my current bag setup (56* Eidolon, 60* TM Rac) I rarely hit the 60* off anything but very tight lies, I just don’t feel comfortable with it. I generally use the 56* for just about everything inside 50 yards. I played a lot of those shots with the 60* CG14, and was pleasantly surprised. The zip grooves provide a fair amount of bite, on par with my 6 month old Eidolon grooves. And with the 60* I am also able to land the ball a lot softer.

When choosing a wedge, I tried both the CG14 and the Vokey wedge. Both are great. However, when I really wanted to put spin on the ball, this wedge performs much better. Whether I’m hitting a pitch or a full swing, I can not only make it spin, but control how much. If you’re in the market for a new wedge, are looking for some good spin, a smooth leading edge, and some forgiveness in your wedge, be sure to add the CG14 to your list of wedges to demo.
