Cleveland Launcher 15* Stiff Golf Fairway Woods - Reviews

On 2003-11-15, stewpit rated this Cleveland Launcher 15* Stiff a 5...(2550)



Purchase: $200 from Windermere Golf Center (local facility)
Pros: Nice looking smallish head. It's rather light, but is very fast through the hitting area. The steel face feels very solid, and produces a little 'tink' sound at impact, but there's definitely some rebound technology in the head, and shots are long and penetrating. A swing speed of about 103mph usually gets me about 250 yards off of the tee with very little roll. It's easy to hit well from the fairway, but I don't have enough confidence to hit at greens yet. The club is forgiving in that minor mishits fly well, but it lives up the label of being a 'player's club' in that slice and hook swings produce corresponding shot patterns. While I have hit some pretty fancy mistakes, I have also hit nice gentle fades, as well as predictable draws. I have good swing speed and late unloading, and the stock stiff graphite shaft seems ideal. A friend has one with light weight steel, and the little bit of extra weight is very nice, so try them both when the Cleveland van comes around.
Cons: The head cover doesn't protect the shaft. I thought the grip was undersized, and got it replaced.
Quality: Excellent quality, top to bottom. I even thought the grip was good, just too small.

Review Summary: This is an outstanding club that responds brilliantly to a smooth stroke, as well as monsterous power. It's fun to swing and produces long and beautiful flight patterns.
