Cleveland Launcher XL Halo

We tested: 15°, 18°, 21°

Our take: The Launcher XL Halo woods are made to launch the ball with ease, helping golfers get the ball airborne just as easily from the fairway as it is off the tee. Which speaking of these woods are the next best thing to using a Cleveland driver—so much that we were amazed at how far the ball flew, almost catching up to how far we hit the Launcher XL driver. They’re both very easy to hit and exceptionally forgiving as well. Our misses were dare we say, still really good.
