The Story in 60 Seconds

Golf gear writer Jake Morrow evaluates Cleveland's new RTZ 2 wedge lineup, highlighting the Adapt grind as his favorite option. Morrow explains that the Adapt grind closely resembles custom hand-built lob wedges due to its unique combination of heel relief and leading-edge bounce chamfer. The design allows golfers to open the clubface without exposing excess leading edge while performing like a higher-bounce option.

In addition to the Adapt grind, the review examines the RTZ 2 Mid and 588 grinds. Morrow describes the Mid grind as an ideal all-around choice for square-face shots and bunker play, featuring a V-sole design. The revived 588 grind, associated with Roger Cleveland's return, offers a tight leading edge and wider sole tailored for precise shotmakers.
