Cleveland Launcher XL Halo Hybrid

Product Information

Action Mass CB:An 8g weight placed inside the end of the grip delivers better balance for more control without extra effort. From a performance standpoint, the Ezone Elite 4 hybrid held its own and felt soft yet powerful off the face, which is in part due to its In-Core groove technology. This technology is placed around the perimeter of the face to allow for greater flexibility and faster ball speeds. The pandemic has seen a major golf boom as people look to get outside and take part in a game that is both social and safe. For new players and existing casual golfers alike, the world of equipment can be daunting. The Cleveland Launcher XL Halo hybrid is part of a line of clubs that helps make it simpler and more fun. Looks Wilson have also added a lot of new technology to this hybrid, with a PKR2 face, that is designed through A.I., helping off-center hits fly consistently during testing and ensuring ball speeds remain normal when you don't catch the middle of the club quite right. We had no issues striking it out of the first cut, due to the high launch on this club, and even hit one out of a fairway bunker on a par 5, perhaps a shot we wouldn't have tried with our regular 4-iron.

Accuracy build is a featured, preconfigured custom option for players who seek maximum control. Head/shaft/grip are the same, but length is 0.5” shorter and 8g grip weight is excluded. In terms of visible tech, you can see two of the most impactful features in the two photos above. One is the Hibore Crown Step which helps lower the club’s center of gravity (CG) to help aid in higher launching shots. The other is the trio of rails on the sole, which help the club move straight through the turf and more easily through the rough. The Cleveland Launcher XL Hybrids also benefit from their Gliderail technology. Which can be found on the sole of the club. The Gliderails are twin rails that run along the sole of the club, and both improves turf interaction and stabilises the face through the hitting area. This technology is particularly impressive when hitting from less than perfect lies. And will allow the golfer to use a hybrid from a lie that would previously have required a mid-iron to escape from. It is also supplied with an lightweight shaft than in their standard hybrids. Giving it more of the distance potential of a fairway wood.

An 8g counter-balance weight helps to deliver better balance without additional effort, resulting in more control through your shots. The HiBore Crown Step reduces the height of the crown which in turn drops the centre of gravity delivering a higher launch.The Cleveland Launcher XL HALO irons are very large, hybrid-style iron. Massive forgiveness and plenty of distance. Ideal for the player looking to have more fun on the course. The internal weight has been paired with a hibore stepped crown which lowers the centre of gravity of the club to provide even higher launching shots.

This will divide opinion but, one thing that shouldn't be ignored is the neutral ball flight. The TSR2 has a lie angle that is half a degree flatter than standard and, in our testing, it certainly helped straighten up our shots. If anything, it has a slight fade bias to it - something that can be increased or reduced via the settings on the hosel. An 8g weight placed inside the end of the grip delivers better balance for more control without extra effort.

Most places still tape clubs up and let you conduct your own range test. It won't be as thorough as a custom fit but you can draw some conclusions.
