Good driver
By John from Athens, GA on February 25, 2013

7 hdcp. I have the DST Launcher 10.5 degree with the Diamana shaft. I like Cleveland drivers and have been back and forth between TM and Cleveland for the past decade. Decided to try the lighter club with a 12 degree loft. Not getting any younger and the price was a big factor in the decision. I struggled slightly with it a first, and missed the more solid feel of the DST with the 10.5 loft. My 50 years of golf experience told me to stop bunting my normal 210 yard drives and take a rip at it. It was a good decision. With a little more effort at swing speed that Miyazaki shaft did it's job as did the thin spring board club face. If one doesn't compress the face and utilize that technology it's all for naught. I was getting 15 to 20 yards more with this club with the more aggressive swing but was still able to control it.
Pros:
Good aesthetics, and shaft.Cons:
Would like a little better solid hit feedback. Hoping to get it with more use.I would recommend this item to a friend.
CLEVELAND LAUNCHER 270
By JIM from NW ILLINOIS on February 10, 2013

ITEM RECEIVED QUICKLY AND EXACTLY AS DESCRIBED. SERVICE AND SHIPPING WAS EXCELLENT.
Pros:
LIGHTWEIGHT, SENIOR SHAFT, AND DESIRED LOFT.Cons:
WOULD HAVE PREFERRED LAMKIN CROSSLINE GRIP INSTEAD OF WINN GRIP. ALSO WISH THAT ROCK BOTTOM GOLF OFFERED EXCHANGES. SHORTLY AFTER I RECEIVED THIS ITEM, ROCK BOTTOM GOLF OFFERED A DIFFERENT DRIVER THAT I WOULD HAVE PREFERRED TO HAVE AND WOULD LIKED TO HAVE EXCHANGED MY NEW, UNUSED DRIVER FOR THE NEWER ONE THAT HAD JUST LISTED. UNFORTUNATELY, ROCK BOTTOM GOLF DOES NOT PROCESS RETURNS.I would recommend this item to a friend.

By steve from Au on November 4, 2012

great driver but a bit light if you have a faster swing try the 290
I would recommend this item to a friend.
Nice driver
By Matt from Muskogee, OK on July 16, 2012

Very light, I love the shaft. Have been making solid contact with ball and noticed longer ball flight. Can be slightly difficult to control initially due to it's light weight
I would recommend this item to a friend.

It's Lite and Long
By George Williams from United States on June 18, 2012

Pros:
Nice price and great feel.Cons:
That I did not get it sooner.I would recommend this item to a friend.
fast and long
By Eddie from ATL on June 16, 2012

I love the weight of this club and it is still a balanced. I pick up 7MPH club speed. I changed from the DTS Cleveland driver. This club is just more of a good thing that the DTS was.
Pros:
Look, feel, weightI would recommend this item to a friend.
I COULD BE OVER SWINGING?
By RON from W.v. on May 10, 2012

THE CLUB FEELS GOOD,IT LOOKS GOOD AND IT HAS A NICE SOUND.Cons:
I CAN NOT ANSWER THAT QUESTION,ITS NOT THAT I DISLIKE THE CLUB, I'M JUST NOT KEEPING THE BALL IN THE FAIRWAY.Cleveland Launcher Driver

Replaced a Razr Hawk
By Daniel from Rochester, MN on April 24, 2012

For the price this driver is fantastic. I had a friend snap my razr hawk and with the money he gave me which was about 200 bucks i needed to replace my driver. I hit the new cobra amp, RocketBallZ, and a razr hawk on the simulator and the launcher was my furthest distance club with the amp a close 2nd but a bit more inconsistent. Overall its a nice driver that benefits from a smooth swing. I am not as in love with the loft i get on this compared to my razr hawk though. It hits much higher and makes it a bit more inconsistent with the winds around here even if i am gaining a few yards. Also, the head cover is absolutely hideous but thats easily replaceable.
I would recommend this item to a friend.
Glad I took the plunge
By Dave from Lewisville, NC on March 7, 2012

You should know I'm in my 60's and (truthful) average drive was around 180 yd. Was sick of always hitting long irons on second shot or not reaching par 5's in regulation. Swing speed is 80 mph on a good day so went with this driver because of extra length and lightest shaft/grip out there. Took some getting use to as would be expected. Started out slicing, which I never did before. Found I had to tee it up higher and play more forward in my stance than my old Ping G5. Am hitting them straight once again and almost 20 yards longer so for me it worked out great.
Pros:
Lightnest.
Accuracy.
CostCons:
Headcover is tight for these arthritic hands.I would recommend this item to a friend.
MAJOR DISTANCE
