KEY TECHNOLOGIES: Cleveland’s largest, deepest face ever is engineered to produce a penetrating ball flight. It has the same construction as Launcher Ultralite XL270 (Ti 6-4 face and Ti 3-1-1-1 body), but the Classic’s center of gravity is higher and closer to the face.

OUR TESTERS SAY: Retro, persimmon-like appearance generates a lot of chatter and goodwill. Adequate overall performance.
