The Cleveland HB SOFT 2 – Model 11 CB combines the proven winged mallet head shape of the iconic Model 11 with Cleveland's acclaimed Speed Optimized Face Technology and a purpose-built counter-balanced design engineered for maximum stability and stroke consistency. By pairing a longer 38" shaft and a custom CB grip with a slightly heavier head, this putter concentrates weight above the hands to quiet the wrists, engage the larger muscle groups, and promote a naturally deliberate, pendulum-like putting motion. It is the ideal choice for golfers who struggle with wrist rotation, inconsistent tempo, or who simply want a face-balanced mallet that delivers repeatable, confidence-inspiring results on every green. The putter ships complete with a matching headcover.
The HB SOFT 2 CB Model 11 is specifically engineered to reduce unwanted wrist movement and quiet the hands during the putting stroke. By pairing a longer 38" shaft and a custom counter-balance grip with a slightly heavier 380g head, this design concentrates the club's weight above the player's hands. That shift in mass engages the larger shoulder and arm muscles rather than the smaller, more erratic wrist muscles, promoting a slower and far more consistent pendulum motion. Golfers who battle tempo issues, wobbly strokes, or excessive wrist rotation will find the CB configuration a transformative improvement to their game on the greens.
Cleveland's Speed Optimized Face Technology uses a dynamic, variable-depth groove milling pattern that is densely packed in the center of the face and expands outward toward the heel and toe. This unique pattern balances energy transfer across the entire striking area, normalizing ball speed whether the putt is struck on the sweet spot or slightly off-center. The result is more predictable distance control on every putt — a critical factor in eliminating three-putts and building confidence on longer approach putts. Crucially, Cleveland engineers measured the specific CG and MOI of each HB SOFT 2 head shape and individually calibrated the milling pattern for optimal performance, meaning the Model 11 CB's face is tuned precisely for its own unique geometry.
The Model 11 head features Cleveland's distinctive fang-toothed, winged mallet silhouette — one of the most popular and recognizable head shapes in the game. The wings extend mass away from the center, dramatically increasing the Moment of Inertia (MOI) and making the putter exceptionally forgiving on off-center hits. Despite its high-MOI engineering, the Model 11 retains a reasonably compact appearance at address that suits a wide range of golfers, from those who prefer a traditional blade look to those who want the stability advantages of a full mallet. The winged back also works in synergy with the counter-balance weighting to create a smooth, stable stroke feel.
The Model 11 CB is built specifically for golfers who use a straight-back, straight-through putting stroke. The face-balanced, single-bend hosel ensures the face returns squarely to the ball at impact without any unwanted rotation. Complementing the hosel geometry is a max-contrast, black-bordered three-line alignment system that frames the ball visually and helps the golfer track the putter face back and through along a consistent path. Together, these elements create a holistic straight-stroke system where every component — head shape, hosel, face balance, and alignment — reinforces the same putting motion for supreme consistency and accuracy.
Cleveland's engineering team invested significant effort to ensure that every HB SOFT 2 putter — across all head shapes and shaft lengths — delivers a consistent, repeatable swing feel. For the CB models, the R&D team carefully analyzed each head shape and used counterbalance weighting to fine-tune the balance point at every available shaft length. Both stock grips are equally weighted so that swing feel and balance remain constant regardless of which grip option is fitted. This attention to detail means that golfers can trust their practice stroke translate directly to the course, building reliable muscle memory and a more repeatable putting routine.
