Cleveland CG4 Iron set Golf Club

Great club for the mid-handicap player (I'm a 12). The low center of gravity combined with the Action Lite shaft makes it soooo easy to get the ball airborne and land it soft. The sole is not nearly as wide as other game improvement irons which is nice when your tee shot strays into the rough. It's also easy to open or shut the face a bit for cuts and draws. Mind you, these are not players clubs. Us weekend warriors don't have repeatable enough swings to use players clubs anyway. We'd all be happy with balls that find the green even with less than great contact. That's what these irons deliver. Hit 'em towards the toe and you're on the right side of the green. Hit 'em on the heel and you're on the left side of the green. Hit 'em a little thin and you're on the back of the green. Hit 'em a little fat and you're on the front of the green. Get the picture? You're on the green! Now go 2-putt and take your par!

Buy the 4-D set. The gap wegde is labeled "D" - don't know why. It's a 50* gap wedge. (Who wants a 3 iron anyway? Aren't we all playing hybrids now?) Match up 54* and 58* CG11 wedges and you've got a great set of sticks!

The only negative thing I can say about these irons is that the scoring irons do have a tendency to balloon a bit, especially in strong wind. I've found that moving the ball about an inch back in my stance for 8-PW really helps when the wind is ripping.

I got fit for my set. Turns out I'm 2* flat and 1/2" short with an undersize grip. No problem - I ordered my set made that way at no extra charge. That certainly is better than buying "off the rack" and then spending another $100-$150 to have lie and length adjusted. Take this into account when thinking you've found a deal on ANY off-the-rack club.

I strongly urge all readers to get their clubs fitted properly. Even high handicap and new golfers will benefit. So many swing flaws come from adjusting your swing to compensate for ill fitting irons. Get fit and you'll get faster results from your lessons and range time. It dropped my handicap by 8 strokes in just one season.
