The Cleveland HB Soft 2 Black #15 OS RH 35 is one of the most forgiving putters in the entire HB Soft 2 lineup, built specifically for golfers wanting maximum stability, easier alignment, and more consistent putting performance.
The defining feature is the #15 full mallet head shape, which uses a larger angular design to push weight toward the perimeter and dramatically increase MOI (Moment of Inertia). In practical terms, this means:
- Less twisting on mishits
- Straighter putts
- More consistent distance control
Compared to compact mallets or blades, the #15 is designed to make putting easier and more stable for golfers who struggle with consistency.
The putter uses a single bend hosel, creating a face-balanced configuration. This setup is ideal for players with:
- Straight-back, straight-through strokes
- Minimal arc
- More mechanical putting motions
One of the biggest upgrades in the Black series is the premium component package. Unlike the standard chrome HB Soft 2 range, the Black models feature:
- A stealth-style Black Satin PVD finish
- A premium UST Mamiya ALL-IN shaft
- A more refined overall feel and balance
The ALL-IN shaft combines carbon fiber and steel construction to improve stability while maintaining feel during the stroke. This helps the putter feel smoother and more consistent through impact.
Cleveland's SOFT (Speed Optimized Face Technology) is another major advantage. Instead of using identical milling across the face, Cleveland varies the groove pattern from center to heel and toe. This helps normalize ball speed on off-centre strikes, improving:
- Distance consistency
- Roll predictability
- Forgiveness on mishits
The Oversized grip (OS) plays an important role as well. It helps reduce excessive wrist action and encourages a smoother, more stable putting stroke-particularly useful for golfers who get handsy under pressure.
At 35 inches, Cleveland also integrates counterbalancing into the design, helping maintain a consistent swing feel and tempo.
