Cleveland CG1 Black Pearl Irons

Advantages: great feel and control over well struck shots
Disadvantages: head size

...These clubs are stunning and suprisingly easy to use for blades. Their looks are second to none which always adds confidence when your standing over your ball! The best aspects of these clubs are the feel and feedback received. If the ball is struck from the centre of the club it flies arrow straight to the target on a slightly lower than normal trajectory. Off centre hits are felt making it easier to know where you are going wrong so that you can practice and become a better golfer. The one downfall of these irons for me is that the size of the clubhead is smaller than the average blade meaning that they are ideally suited to better golfers although I started playing with these when I had a handicap of 12 and found they were relatively forgiving but not as much as cavity back or forged irons. These irons are very much evenly matched... Read review

Advantages: easy to hit from any distance and looks stunning
Disadvantages: amount of bounce on some options makes the club less versataile

...This is a fantastic wedge, suitable for any skill level of player especially for the more inconsistent of us due to the positioning of the weight in the club head. This wedge is especially good in my eyes due to its anti glare 'black pearl' finish which looks great and doesn't rust. The design of the sole of the club makes it harder to hit 'fat' as the bounce stops the club from digging in and allows more better mishits that the average wedge. I also got great feel and a lot of spin with this wedge, especially from sand adn deep rough!!! The standard shaft and grip come with the quality you would expect from a Cleveland wedge and match the well designed clubhead that sits very well behind the ball. A problem i did have with my version of this wedge is that although a lot of bounce made it easier to get out of bunkers and long grass... Read review

Advantages: Supurb looks and great feel too. Fantastic prices available.
Disadvantages: Wear easily.

...I have had both the 56 degree (sand wedge) and 52 degree (gap wedge) in the Cleveland CG11 series (satin finish) for approximately 8 months now and have being impressed with the difference they have made to my short game, not just as good clubs but also in the sense of making me a more versatile player around the greens (i.e. giving me more options than just a SW and a PW). First and foremost has to be the stunning design and appearance of the clubs. They are beautiful to the point of making it difficult to allow yourself to hit that first ball! As well as being good asthetically they are also well designed with a cavity back and slightly wider sole to give maximum stability and forgivness. Second must be the components of the club and, as you would expect from a big name supplier such as Cleveland who, in particular are renowned... Read review
