RTX 6 ZipCore
9.1Outstanding
$139
The Cleveland RTX 6 ZipCore remains one of the best value-to-performance wedges on the market, featuring the proprietary HydraZip face technology with a dynamic blast and laser-milled line system that delivered 43% more wet-condition spin than RTX 5. The ZipCore low-density insert repositions mass for optimized CG, and UltiZip grooves provide maximum legal spin. Four grind options including the new Low+ make this an exceptional all-around wedge.
