This driver is big - like, really big - so it's easy to send drives right down the middle. With the most MOI ever in a Cleveland Golf driver, Launcher XL will have you thinking less about the club in your hands and more about carrying bunkers, clearing hazards, and finding the fairway.
It’s called the XL Driver for a reason. Mainly because it’s really big and so is the sweet spot. That makes it extremely forgiving. We packed the XL Driver with MOI for towering drives that fly straight.
This is huge: a bigger head means an MOI of 5,200 g-cm – our most ever in a Cleveland Golf driver. Add that forgiveness to a high launch from low-and-deep weighting, and you’ll enjoy maximum distance with maximum fun.
What’s better than one flex zone? Two (duh). Alternating zones of flexibility and rigidity direct more energy into the golf ball for increased ball speed and distance on every shot.
An 8g weight placed inside the end of the grip delivers better balance for more control without extra effort.
Adjust your loft from 9 to 12 degrees to optimize your launch angle, distance, and shot shape. Loft can be adjusted at 0.5 deg increments with 12 positions in all.
If precision is your top priority, this custom configuration is an inch shorter without counterbalancing for max control off the tee.

The Launcher XL Driver comes standard with an adjustable hosel sleeve that adjusts from 9.0° to 12.0° in 0.5° increments. In all, there’s 12 different positions which means you’re bound to find the perfect setup for your swing.
The 4 primary loft settings are marked on the sleeve at 9.0°, 10.5°, 12.0° and 10.5° Flat. The varying settings between each are visible on the pre-installed shaft tip.
Adjusting the driver’s loft also has a slight impact on your face and lie angles. The chart below will help you decide which configuration is right for your swing. Side note: it’s also a great conversation starter next time you’re trying to impress your father-in-law.

To ensure a safe and satisfying golfing experience, please be sure to follow these Important Precautions.
Be sure to read the Important Precautions carefully and exercise appropriate care. The manufacturer assumes no liability for injury or product damage due to failure to comply with the instructions herein.
It is against the rules to modify club performance during a round by changing the QTS sleeve position or exchanging weights to change the CG position, as this breaches the Rules of Golf regulation 4-2a, which states: "During a stipulated round, the playing characteristics of a club must not be purposely changed by adjustment or by any other means."
Check to see that the QTS sleeve is properly secured.
Tighten until you hear a 'click'. If you fail to properly secure the sleeve, there is a possibility that the head may come off mid swing, injuring either you or a bystander.
