Cleveland HB Soft 2 Black Putter
PREMIUM FINISH. PREMIUM SHAFT. PREMIUM BUILD.
All-new HB SOFT 2 Black Putters add a premium, black satin finish and premium, multi-material UST Mamiya ALL-IN shaft to our acclaimed HB SOFT 2 lineup. Combine that with Cleveland Golf’s milled Speed Optimized Face Technology, plus a precisely fit hosel style, toe hang, alignment line, and grip, and you get consistent distance performance in a finely tuned, near-custom Putter for a practical price.
Simply choose your stroke type and preferred head shape, and we'll hand build your HB SOFT 2 Black Putter to its perfectly balanced spec.

RETREVE
A completely new head shape configuration from Cleveland Golf, and our first-ever Putter with the ability to pick your ball out of the hole or easily off any other surface without having to bend down—giving your back, knees, and hips a break.
Make no mistake, though, this is not just some gimmick stick. RETREVE has been carefully designed to perform with all the accuracy, stroke specific designs, and consistent swing feel as every other HB SOFT 2 Black Putter.
TECHNOLOGY
SOFT: SPEED OPTIMIZED FACE TECHNOLOGY
With SOFT, densely grouped groove lines in the center of the face expand toward the heel and toe, balancing the energy transfer across the striking area to normalize ball speed. Translation? You get more predictable distances on every putt, even on miss-hits.
And it doesn't stop there. To keep distances consistent no matter which HB SOFT 2 Black head shape you choose, our engineers measured the CG and MOI properties of each model and adjusted its face milling pattern for optimal alignment. Try saying that five times fast.
STROKE SPECIFIC DESIGN
Whether you're into blades, mallets, or a hybrid of the two, HB SOFT 2 Black Putters feature nine designs carefully assembled for straight or slight arc stroke types. Once you select your stroke type and desired Putter head shape, we've got everything else matched to complement that—hosel style, toe hang, alignment system, and grip—so you can confidently stand over the ball knowing everything is completely in sync.
CONSISTENT SWING FEEL
Each HB SOFT 2 Black Putter has a consistent swing feel—model to model—no matter which shaft length you choose. Our R&D team carefully analyzed every HB SOFT 2 Black Putter shape at each shaft length available, then used a counterbalance weight to perfect both standard lengths. Plus, both stock grips are weighted equally, so swing feel and balance consistency don't change whether you're using the oversize or the pistol grip.
