Description Cleveland Launcher Steel Fairway Woods Graphite Shafts. The maraging steel faces of the Cleveland Launcher Fairway Woods have a higher strength-to-weight ratio than clubs that feature standard 17-4 st...
Summary: I picked up both the 15* and 19* with Pro Launch shafts for only $85 a piece at a local golf shop. Great feel with distance about 5-10 yards shorter than my Sonartec SS-2.5, but with a higher trajectory, a softer landing and nearly impossible to slice. I think the height and landing are due to the shaft, but I cannot confirm this as I haven't tried the Launcher in any other shaft. I feel more confident hitting the Launchers than my Sonartec, so I've kept them in the bag. Great for players looking for a small, simple shaped clubhead with a shallow face.

Summary: I've been looking for a long time for fairway woods that I could play well, and suited my eye, and this is by far the club that can handle it for me. The smallish club head, low profile, and crack at impact make this a club I truly enjoy playing.
It's killer long off the tee and fairway, and I've hit this thing on the screws and pushed it past 250. A great club no matter hwo you look at it.
Customer Service: Got it for 100 bucks.. WHOO!!!

Summary: I cracked the hosel on my 10 year old Orlimar 13 deg., #3 wood. After shopping around and trying several others, I settled on the launcher steel. Being similar to the old Orlimar(shallow face, small head.), I it to be a comfortable fit. The face is very hot allowing for great distance of the tee, while the shallow face makes getting the ball airborne from the fairway a snap.
It's an excellent replacement for my old club and a great bargin right now as they have been discontinued. Not a gimmicky club, just a good solid stick.

At $99, the Cleveland Launcher Steel (2006) is a STEAL. This is THE BEST overall fairway wood I've ever owned/tried, (and I've tried a ton of them). I own the 19, 22, and 25 degree versions with the ProLaunch Blue shaft (stiff, 65 grams).
They are supremely easy to get up in the air, very long, and very forgiving. The stock shaft is good, but go with the ProLaunch if it is available.
