Cleveland RTX 4 웨지

The RTX 4 comes in three grinds: Low, Mid, and Full. The Mid is the most versatile and works for most players and course conditions. Go Low if you play firm turf, sweep the ball, or like to open the face a lot around the greens. Choose Full for softer turf, steeper swings, and the lower-lofted wedges where you take a bigger divot.

Most players do well with four-degree gaps. A common setup runs a 50 or 52 as the gap wedge, a 56 as the sand wedge, and a 58 or 60 as the lob wedge, matched to the loft of your pitching wedge. The 46 and 48 lofts work if your set pitching wedge is stronger than 45 degrees and you need to fill that hole.

It is more of a shot-maker's wedge than a forgiveness-first design. The high spin and tighter grinds reward a clean strike, so if you catch wedges thin or fat often, you will feel those misses. Higher handicappers can still play it well, especially in the Mid grind, but a wider-soled cavity wedge will be more forgiving on chunked chips.

Match bounce to your turf and your angle of attack. If you play firm ground or take shallow divots, lower bounce in the Low grind sits better and lets you get the leading edge under the ball. If your turf is soft or you dig, higher bounce in the Full or Mid grind keeps the club from digging too deep. When in doubt, the Mid grind covers the widest range of conditions.

The RTX 4 uses Feel Balancing Technology to move the center of gravity, while the Zipcore wedge that replaced it swapped in a lightweight core through the middle of the head to push weight to the perimeter. Zipcore also added UltiZip grooves for a bit more spin. The RTX 4 still holds up well and often sells for less, so it is a solid value if you find the loft and grind you want.
