Laugh if you want, I play CMB irons but do ho stuff like buy Cleveland Altittude irons with S400 shafts. These are fantastic along with being extremely easy to hit. Every guy in my group was intrigued by them and commented on how easy they looked to hit. I have a 290 with a Bi Matrix and a Tour 310 with Miyazaki White 83x. These are just as good if not better then anything out there. Marketing, marketing marketing!!

I think their CG16 P Stamp and CG7 Tour Concept Irons are as good as or better than anything I've hit.   I don't understand why they don't make it to retail to compete with other OEMs similar offerings.  I use their Tour size 310 Classic and Launcher DST 430 drivers and love them. I also use their DST Launcher 3 wood and I'm picky with 3 woods.

They make great equipment but don't always offer it to the masses.

Their marketing and branding is their main issue, 100%. At least lately. Stick with something and build an identity.

You have Titleist with AP and the 900 drivers, Taylormade with the R line, Callaway with X, Ping with i and G, etc etc.......Cleveland had the CG irons and wedges which wasn't as strong as a name but at least something. Looks to be even more confusing moving forward.

Looks like they are going to base everything off of the 588 name,

Why isn't the hibore iron  line mentioned? Original, XLI, HB3 and now 588's Altitude. These are great clubs and HB3's the best of them are a great for this niche SGI market place. Is everything about blades on this forum?

G-Mac seems to be doing OK with Cleveland clubs.

New Classic woods, irons and (not seen in this clip) putters as well.



How good do those woods look !! The irons also looking good with a slight Srixon look about them.

I play a DST Driver and have recently brought a Mashie 3 Wood added to my CG Red irons.

They look good don't they? I am going to at least try them on release being a bit of a Cleveland fan, one of perhaps 3 OEMs I could bag top to toe. Good company for putting together a superb value, top quality set up in my opinion.

I play CG16 black pearl irons and love them.  Also, still game a Launcher 3w (2010 version) and Cleveland wedges CG12, 14s.  I can't get with the new drivers though.  Classic was okay but hit Rocketballz and G20 better.  They still make solid equipment.
