Cleveland's brilliant Launcher XL drivers

Some names can be spotted all over every single Tour: on golf balls rolling towards the hole, on putters held aloft in victory and on drivers striping balls down the fairways.

Cleveland are certainly renowned for their legendary wedges and aiding many a Pro shoot low scores around the green, but at the other end of the game they also make excellent drivers. Today we’ll take you through some of the best drivers to consider from Cleveland if you’re after a new club.
 

First impressions

When you first set eyes on a Cleveland Launcher XL driver, the symmetrical colour pattern seems to resemble the stripes of an exotic animal. The sole of the club is bookended by two piercing blue arches on the heel and toe that imitate a pair of snake fangs. The sleek silver ridges and smooth black finish assure you this driver packs plenty of bite.

But what tech is there under the hood to bring this animal to life?

Key tech under the hood

Cleveland wants you to have control over the driver and for it to feel as good as possible in your hands. There's an Action Mass counter-balancing 8g weight inside of the grip so that picking it up and swinging the club is as natural as possible.

The club head is designed for high MOI meaning you’ll get plenty of forgiveness behind each shot. The low and deep weighting in the club gives the head a more solid centre of gravity, resulting in more speed off the tee. Resulting in a higher ball launch, and ultimately further distance gained down the fairway.

With the counterweight technology in the shaft and the flexible Rebound Frame in the club head, the XL range will help you make consistently great drives.

Range architecture

Cleveland’s XL range of drivers includes three specific and unique clubs, each with their own unique characteristics and game-improving features.

The Launcher XL Lite driver will help you gain confidence off the tee and set you on the path to shooting better scores. Built for ensuring forgiveness on each strike, you’ll be making longer, straighter shots more regularly. If you don’t have a fast swing, this lightweight entry could be the choice for you.

If you tend to hit your drives to the right hand side, the XL Lite draw driver has a built-in draw bias that will help correct your shot shape to keep you playing straight. The club has a bonded 12g hosel to help you swing the club faster, after all, a faster swing means more energy at impact and further distance.

If you’re a confident player, you’ll be able to take advantage of the Launcher XL driver’s Rebound Frame to send the ball faster and further. The adjustable hosel has 12 individual positions to optimise how you want to shape your shot. If you’re a lower handicap player, this is the driver for you.
