Identifying the right model
- A long, wide blade with HB SOFT 2 lettered on the sole and 8 at the heel end below the Cleveland roundel, MODEL 8 OPTIMIZED MILLING along the face edge and a centre-shafted hosel entering behind the face.
What to check before using the reference
- 8C is the centre-shafted, face-balanced version of the Model 8 with a 3-line alignment and oversize grip; the 8S (slant neck) has its own record.
- Cleveland’s footnote says no loft or lie adjustments are offered for the 8C and 11C, and that putter shafts 35 in and over include a 20 g counterbalance weight.
- Cleveland also sells an HB SOFT 2 Black Model 8C (black finish) on its own page without a specification table.
