$170
The Cleveland CBX4 ZipCore bridges the gap between your cavity-back irons and your scoring wedges with premium spin technologies in a forgiving package. HydraZip face technology enhances surface friction in wet and dry conditions, ZipCore reduces vibrations while boosting MOI, and UltiZip grooves deliver sharper, deeper, tighter grooves for maximum spin. Progressive sole shapes (V, S, C) by loft range ensure optimal turf interaction for each shot type.
