Cleveland Launcher XL Halo 5-wood
Full reviewThe short answer
Buy the Stealth 2 5-wood if you strike it consistently and want more control, you want the newer design (2023), you already hit it high and want a flatter flight.
Buy the Launcher XL Halo 5-wood if you want the more forgiving club, you want to spend less (older models sell for much less used), you need help getting the ball in the air, you fight a slice.
Both sell used for well under their launch prices ($350 and $250). Live used prices are coming soon; until then, use the shop links to see what each costs today.
