    How to identify fake clubs??

    Looking at ebay and see a lot of Cleveland CG10 and CG11 wedges for bidding.

    I have a CG10 56* and I'm looking at getting another CG10 but a 52*. I've looked around the web and happened to come across this.

    http://forum.toronto-golf.ca/showthr...ght=fake+clubs

    Which brings me here. So how does one determine a real Cleveland wedge and a fake one? My TM driver has a serial number engraved into the head, however the CG10 doesn't. Went to GT and look at other CG10's and I didn't find any serial numbers on the heads. So does anyone no whether or not Cleveland has any distinguishing marks of authenticity on there products??

    Some fakes can be recognized by the precision of the trademark. Cleveland machine engraves the markings while fakes are molded. The difference is that the edges of the markings in real Clevelands is very sharp.
    Clevelands are forged steel which is buffed. Some knock-offs are molded stainless and tend to be shyny.
