Cleveland CG1 Irons
Head Design CG1 irons take traditional blades to a new level of feel and performance. Made from CMM metal, they offer players a softer and more responsive feel than blades made from traditional steels. Designed with the better player in mind, CG1 irons have a slightly larger muscle in order to move the center of gravity back in the clubhead to promote a more penetrating and controllable ball flight.
The Metal Cleveland's goal was to find or create a material that would damp vibration in an unprecedented fashion and could be readily manipulated and engineered for performance. In fall of 2003 they created the first wedges made from light density steel. Since then they have added Black Pearl™ wedges as well as the CG1's, CG2's and the new CG4's to Cleveland Golf’s line of CMM brand clubs.
This new metal, while not a composite, is infused with 17 times more carbon than traditional 8620 and 1020 steels. Using a process unique to the CMM material, microscopic carbon spheres are infused within the molecular structure of the metal. This creates a matrix that is 10% less dense than ordinary steel yet it maintains the hardness and manipulation properties of cast or forged carbon steel. These density relieving spheres within the CMM metal also dramatically damp vibration offering a pure, soft feel never before achieved in any golf club. Needless to say, Cleveland Golf has a patent pending for golf clubs made of this breakthrough material.
