[ad_1] The Cleveland Launcher HB is that rare mainstream driver these days that doesn’t offer adjustability. From the company’s perspective, there’s a simple reason the Launcher doesn’t come with a wrench: It’s better for more golfers not to have a driver that doesn’t change. That’s right. Adjustability, Cleveland is saying with its new Launcher HB

[ad_1] The new Mizuno MP-18 might be seen as one new iron from one of the leading forged iron companies in the history of golf. Or it might be seen as three new irons, maybe even four. Or quite simply it could be seen as any number of new iron sets because the Mizuno MP-18

[ad_1] The new Cobra F-Max woods and irons seem built on the principle that making clubs larger and more forgiving isn’t enough to truly help those players who gravitate toward super game-improvement irons. This group, which includes moderate swing speed players, seniors and women, needs a different kind of forgiveness that starts by attacking their

[ad_1] The PXG 0311X is the latest offering from a company whose big-ticket irons and woods cater to one of golf’s most exclusive segments, but this new offering may cater to an even smaller subset of the golfing universe: Those who can hit 1-irons.

[ad_1] The latest Bob Vokey Signature wedge from the WedgeWorks program at Vokey.com is admittedly a historical throwback from the hall-of-fame designer whose wedge lines have become known for their vast array of options of lofts, heads, grinds and bounce angles.

[ad_1] To say that metalwoods have more room for improvement than any other club might seem confusing.
