How much better do those RTX wedges look with professional grinds done like that? Its my biggest complaint about Clevelands wedges but seeing these has really made me second guess them. Anyone know if custom orders can be made?

- Something that continues to go long off the tee in the fairway
- Something that is a fairway finder when needed and long
- Something that high, consistent and helps with par 5’s
-  Something to help with long par3’s and short par 4’s

-  Something metal, lots of them and go the gaps I need
- Something metal, 2x of them and helps me 120y and in
- Putters - limited rotation because I cannot afford misses

Golf is what you make of it.  Play grateful and accepting. We are all lucky to have it.

Rather than expecting lets all try and appreciate instead. 
Treat people the way you want to be treated

I don't think he has really been playing them that long. He always bagged Taylormade MC's when he first signed with Srixion. He always just had a ball and bag deal.

 

Yeah, I don’t recall him playing Srixon irons before. Interesting that he put a fresh set of 745s in over the current model. But if a trend, I’d say. I wonder why all the Srixon pros seem to be staying away from the 765s? Do they prefer the sharper/angular lines of the 45 series?

Most probably prefer the square toe in the 745s vs the 765s. If I remember correctly Srixon has been making 745s with the new updates grooves for tour guys. Also think some of them have differences in their v sole

JB going "old school" with the M1. Wonder if he will be switching over to one of the newer models anytime soon? Regardless, good to see him back in action and I hope he can turn it around in 2018 after a pretty lackluster 2017.

 

Also, agree with many above.... those Cleveland wedges look fantastic.

 

When I got fit for my M1, the rep said the 2016 M1 was extremely fade biased and the tour pros complained - why a lot of pros went with the M2 and why they put more carbon on the toe of the 2017 M1. Could be that anything newer would go left for him. Look at the weights in that thing with the fade/draw weight all the way fade. He does NOT want to go left at all.

Those aren't rtx 3's... Those are the rtx 4 proto that has rtx 3 on the back. Hope they keep the new ones close to these and offer that grind on the 1 dot version.

Oh absolutely. Those soles look 100x better than the previous model.

 

I had some RTX 3 and loved hitting full shots with them, they were seriously awesome, but they were unusable chipping off tight lies it seemed with the V on the bottom, like you couldn't do a slightly opened face shot around the greens at all as it just raised the leading edge up a ton on them. I have a decent shortgame but those things ruined my confidence around a green.

Unfortunately you can’t order them like that. Hoping Cleveland took notice that rtx3 was a step back, with nearly none of their tour pros playing anything close to a retail grind.

 

Hoping the Rtx4 are just the models we see in JBs bag. Those would do just fine
