I realized I didn’t hit any full shots or long pitches, haha. I was all about greenside.
I’ll get to the range and see, but they both should be fine.

DonM So, holy grail?

Cleveland knows wedges. That is all. The CBX is the best sole design I've ever hit. How many clubs have I kept for years? 😉

I have and have played both. CBX wins by a mile on full shots (distance, forgiveness, and feel). Chipping and pitches they're relatively close, but CBX still wins.

OG CBX and the MDs are closer in a run off, but the new Zip Core CBX kicks the MDs ass big time in my book.

Just my two cents.

Not trying to throw you for a total loop but how about the Maltby Max milled? I would think that head would be like the CBX (sole wise) but no CB cavity.

One very big drawback with these max milled is the weight. Pretty heavy

    I haven't played the CBX wedges...I'm still playing the first generation Smart Sole Wedges from Cleveland and haven't found anything to get them out of the bag. Might have to give the CBX's a go based upon your stellar recommendation - you've had them in the bag for years!!!

      I love CBXs!! I have a 46, 50, 54, 58 and another 58* with a fatter sole. All 115 Dynamic Gold Steel.

      No, same answer as the Juggernaut.
      But, the GW is wider so it would be good in our sand. But probably not as good as the CBX on the dormant Bermuda here. I mean, it would be okay, but not holy grail.

      DonM The magic for me is the sole, not the cavity.

      Amen. Cavity backs add forgiveness on full swing shots. Wedges are for little shots. Most of us will find the center of the clubface on these shots. The sole is the critical element.
