Cleveland 588 Custom Driver, Fairway Woods and Hybrids
Cleveland Golf’s new 588 Custom driver <<< See Full Review Here >>> is more adjustable than the company’s recently released 588 Altitude driver, and has more weight positioned lower in the head to raise launch angle and lower spin.
The 588 Custom is an all-titanium 460-cubic-centimeter design with an adjustable weight in the rear of the sole that allows golfers to fine tune swing weight. The driver’s adjustable hosel has 12 different settings, with a 3-degree range of loft and lie adjustability and a 4.5-degree range of face angle adjustability.
It is available in lofts of 9 and 10.5 degrees, and comes stock with a 45.5-inch Matrix 6Q3 shaft (R, A, S and X flexes, D5 swing weight).
Cleveland 588 Fairway Wood
Cleveland 588 Hybrid
Cleveland is also releasing 588 fairway woods and hybrids that like the 588 Custom driver have enhanced variable face thicknesses to maximize distance on center strikes and offer more forgiveness on mishits, as well as rear sole plugs and advanced wall constructions that push the clubs’ center of gravity lower in the club heads.
The fairway woods are available in lofts of 14, 15.5, 18 and 20.5 degrees with a Matrix 6Q3 shaft (R, A, S and X flexes, D5 swing weight). The hybrids, which incorporate Cleveland’s Gliderail sole (two rails with subtle center keel on the sole to decrease turf drag), are offered in lofts of 18 (H2), 20.5 (H3), 23 (H4) and 26 (H5) degrees with Matrix’s Ozik Altus shaft (R, A, S and X flexes, D4 swing weight).
All three clubs will be available at retail on Feb. 7. The driver will sell for $349.99, the fairway woods will sell for $199.99 and the hybrids will sell for $169.99.

Spotted: Nate Lashley’s Ping PLD “Wolverine” putter
Ping PLD putters have been a very common site on profesional tours. Pros seem to gravitate toward the PLD line’s custom options and precision milling. We have seen the PLD line expanded over the years, but we haven’t seen too many, if any, large mallets.
This week we spotted a PLD putter in Nate Lashley’s bag that has a similar look to the old Ping Wolverine head shape. This putter is a large mallet with the famous “claws” on the outside and oval center that housed the alignment aid.
Nick’s putter has the PLD logo on the back but also looks like it might have an insert installed on the face. It is hard to tell but at the address picture, it looks like the face is a lighter material than the rest of the putters. The putter is center-shafted and should be face-balanced with a high MOI for stability and forgiveness on mishits. The sole is completely milled and has no markings of name or technologies that might be present in the head. A single white site line is on the top of the putter for alignment.
Nick’s putter is finished off with a chrome steel shaft and a Super Stroke Zenergy Flatso 2.0 grip in black and white.

Guys read the specs on these clubs. Literally exactly the same as the custom xl just a face lift.

Good looking club. If it performs, I’ll take a look. Also like the new Wilson driver…both appear to be good value quality clubs.
Looking forward to hitting them both

I think Clevelands are maybe the most under rated clubs. I think their quality is high and price is decent. Don’t see why more people don’t hit them.

They are very good value clubs. Mid and up caps won’t go wrong here.

In my opinion, Cleveland is underrated in the woods department. The Launcher 270UL/290SL/310TL/and fairway woods were great clubs as was the Classic line of woods.

I have to agree… I’ve tried to kick my TL310 out of my bag and still can’t beat it after 3 years of trying every other driver on the planet. I have not tried the 588 as I want to stay with a sub-460cc driver..
NOPE

These wont sell like the rest of their woods. Their wedges remain solid but their woods and irons really don’t sell that well.
