On 2005-02-03, golfista57 rated this Cleveland Launcher 460 Driver a 5...(4996)



Purchase: I bought a used 460 Launcher after using my 400 for two years.I paid $145.
Pros: I went from 10.5 to 8.5 with the 460 while maintaining a Stiff Cleveland shaft.My swing is pretty fast, so i wanted to try the lower loft.I tried the 460 for the first time yesterday,wow!. My first drive was 285 down the middle!( I averaged about 250-260 with the 400).I drove it 300 yards in three other holes.The club feels great and I am somehow drawing the ball!(That's a first for me).I love this driver.
Cons: Maybe they should add an aligment guide.
Quality: Well constructed.Feels solid. Kind of ugly color like with the 400.

Review Summary: Great club fot the price. You don't need to spend $500 for a great driver.

Purchase: I bought the club at a discount golf shop used for $200.00. I bought the club after reading glowing reviews of it and also due to the fact that it was rated No. 1 at Golf Test USA.
Pros: The club is very forgiving. You can hit it all over the face and not lose distance. I thought I would have a problem with the large head, however, it is easy to adjust to. I know the club is long - but I believe I have the wrong shaft.
Cons: I have not gotten the distance that others have described. I have hit some nice long drives, however, not on a consistent basis. I have hit my TM 360 driver longer. I thought I was getting weaker, but I have convinced that I have too stiff of a shaft. Unfortunately, I did not look at the Cleveland website - they provide a chart - which states that for my swingspeed I should be using the regular flex shaft.
Quality: Cleveland makes classic looking and quality golf clubs - this club is not different. Even though the head is huge - it just looks like a big Titleist.

Review Summary: Once I change the shaft, I hope I will see the distance benefits. I would advise anyone to at least have there swingspeed checked with a machine. Do not listen to the salespeople who ask you what you hit from 150 yards. I hit an 8-Iron from 150 which puts me in the stiff range, but I don't have the swingspeed for that type of shaft.
