The middle model in Cleveland's new Launcher Ultralite Series, the company says the Cleveland Launcher SL290 weighs 25g less than the average driver at 290g, to encourage a faster swing speed, and therefore greater shot distance. Impressive distance but easier to control than the XL270. Another great looking head.

Players looking to work the ball both ways on a consistent basis should try the TL310.
