Cleveland Launcher Driver 9.5 Golf Drivers - Reviews

On 2004-11-04, Dave9621 rated this Cleveland Launcher Driver 9.5 a 5...(4749)



Purchase: A friend had a Launcher driver demo in his bag one day and we all took turns hitting it. After about 3 or 4 drives I was sold, I bought one a few days later. I'm hitting the ball 15 or 20 yards farther, and MUCH straighter. I'm about an 18 handicap and it's really improved my game off of the tee considerably. According to Cleveland's website, mishits only lose 6% of the distance, and I can back that up, misshits go almost as far as a perfect drive.
Pros: It's being marketed as "Easy to Hit". I couldn't agree more. I use to have a 3/4 swing so that I could keep the ball in the fairway...not anymore, I'm grippin' it and rippin' it these days. It's really fun to hit, the sweet spot seems to be HUGE, it's hard to miss it.
Cons: I might have choosen the wrong loft, I picked the 9.5 degree and the ball goes VERY high...I used to play a 10.5 Bazooka and that didn't go nearly as high. If I picked the 8.5 for the Launcher I think I might get another 10 yards...the ball just jumps off the club face.
Quality: The quality is excellent. I've played with it most of the summer and it's really holding up.

Review Summary: I could not be happier with my purchase. I bought it online for $270, which is asking alot out of a guy like me, but now I'm realy do replace my 3 and 5 woods with matching Launchers, that's how happy I am. This is my first Clevland club and I just might be a customer for life.
