HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif. – Aug. 9, 2021 – Cleveland Golf is proud to announce three new Launcher XL Woods: Launcher XL HALO Fairway Woods, Launcher XL HALO Hybrid, and the Launcher XL HALO HyWood. These new additions to the Launcher XL family officially launch in North America on Aug. 20, 2021.
“The new Launcher XL HALO Fairway Woods are the most forgiving and confidence-inspiring fairway woods Cleveland Golf has ever made,” said Dustin Brekke, Director of Engineering at Cleveland Golf.
“With an extreme high MOI design, Gliderail technology and Rebound Frame, the Launcher XL Fairway Woods provide distance and consistency never before seen for game improvement players.” Similar to the Launcher XL Driver, the new Launcher XL HALO Fairway Woods are built with a larger overall framework with HALO perimeter weighting and increased MOI for added forgiveness on every swing.
This latest generation features Gliderail technology, which helps deliver a square face at impact for a pure strike. Also, these fairway woods feature a new Rebound Frame club structure that directs more energy into the golf ball at impact for more ball speed on every shot.
Key Innovations Inside the Launcher XL HALO Fairway Woods:
• XL Head Design: The Launcher XL HALO Fairway Woods feature a larger head with extreme perimeter weighting (MOI of 3,338 g-cm² in the 3-wood), the most ever in a Cleveland Golf fairway wood.
• Gliderail: Twin rails along the sole of the club help keep the face straight through impact for optimal ball striking off the tee or from the deck.
• Rebound Frame: A flex zone in the face and a second flex zone in the body of the club work in sequence to direct more impact energy into the golf ball, increasing ball speed and distance on every shot.
• Action Mass CB: An 8g weight placed inside the end of the grip delivers better balance for more control without added effort.
• HiBore Crown Step: The stepped crown shape brings the height of the crown down, dropping the center of gravity and raising the launch in the process.
With this latest release, Cleveland Golf is introducing the new Launcher XL HALO Hy-Wood: a club that sets up like a hybrid, but delivers fairway wood style speed and distance.
“Designed to set up like a hybrid for confidence inspiring precision but built closer to a fairway wood for better swing speed and distance, the Launcher XL HALO Hy-Wood is the perfect go to club for maximum second shot distance and control,” said Brekke.
Key Innovations Inside the Launcher XL Hybrids:
• XL Head Design: The Launcher XL Hybrids features an MOI of 2,961 g-cm² – the most ever in a Cleveland Golf hybrid.
• Gliderail: Three rails along the sole of the club help keep the face straight through impact for optimal ball striking regardless of the lie.
• Rebound Frame: A flex zone in the face and a second flex zone in the body of the club work in sequence to direct more impact energy into the golf ball, increasing ball speed and distance on every shot.
• Action Mass CB: An 8g weight placed inside the end of the grip delivers better balance for more control without added effort.
• HiBore Crown Step: The stepped crown shape brings the height of the crown down, dropping the center of gravity and raising the launch in the process.
The Launcher XL HALO Fairway Woods, Launcher XL HALO Hybrids, and Launcher XL HALO HyWood are available with an optional accuracy build for those that prefer accuracy above all else. This custom configuration is a half-inch short and does not feature counterbalancing for those players that demand precision and the freedom to shape their shots as they please.
