Originally founded in 1979 by namesake Roger
Cleveland, Cleveland Golf started off as a company known for producing exquisite
replicas of classic golf clubs from the 1940's and 1950's. Today, the company is
regarded as one of the forerunners in product innovation and is home to the #1
Wedge in Golf.
Cleveland Golf has experienced extraordinary growth since the appointment of
Greg Hopkins as president in 1997. Hopkins' goal was to move towards a product
line that would make high performance equipment available to golfers at every
level and increase visibility in the marketplace. He has thus far succeeded on
both counts with products that feature such cutting edge technology as CMM
metal, golf's first light density metal.
Vijay Singh has been a long recognised golfer in the PGA Tours and has been a
using Cleveland clubs for over a decade. Vijay has the following clubs in his
bag:
Cleveland Hibore Golf Driver,
Cleveland XLS Fairway Woods,
Cleveland Golf Irons,
Cleveland Wedges - Black Pearl and the
Never Compromise Putters GM2 FM putter.
For the 2009 season Cleveland have brought back and updated the Launcher range of woods. With the classic teardrop head
shape found in the new Cleveland
Launcher 460cc Driver
, and replicated in the Launcher fairway woods and Launcher hybrids, this range will appeal to the more traditional golfer looking for
distance and forgiveness.
For those looking for even more distance and forgiveness, look no further than the Cleveland
HiBore XLS Monster Driver! Building on the success of last years HiBore XLS Driver range (which continues this year), the Monster is the biggest
driver Cleveland have ever made. With
the massive size, the designers at Cleveland have managed to distribute even
more weight to the back of the club for a truly monstrous moment of inertia (MOI). It is available in the standard head design,
the HiBore
XLS Monster Draw head and the HiBore
XLS Monster Tour head.
Central
to the Cleveland range of woods if the vast array of shaft options to suit
every golfer. With the top-notch Fujikura Shafts you can have woods to fit your
swing rather than the other way round. With the normal flex options from Senior
through to Extra stiff combined with the Red (Low Trajectory) and Gold (High
Trajectory) Fujikura Shafts, there are literally dozens of options to go for.
Known
primarily for the quality of their wedges, Cleveland does not disappoint this
year and continue with the popular Cleveland
CG12 Chrome, CG12
Black Pearl and CG12
DSG RTG and the Cleveland
CG14 Black Pearl and CG14
Chrome wedges. With lofts ranging
from 46 to 64 degrees and low, mid and high bounce options; there are wedges
here for every situation you can imagine.
It
is not often that true innovation occurs in the golf market, however Cleveland
have done it this year with the ground breaking Cleveland
Niblick Wedge. They have created an updated version of an ancient golf club
with some great features used in their CG12 and CG14 wedges. With Zip grooves
giving intense spin; Gelback technology for enhanced feel; the Niblick
is a great approach club, chipper, pitching club and rescue club all in one.
