Hi-bore 3 wood with V2

Any thoughts / experiences about this:

eBay: NEW CLEVELAND HIBORE 3 WOOD, 15 DEG, PROFORCE V2 STIFF (item 220097247060 end time Apr-02-07 13:24:02 PDT)

I am loving this driver. 22 fairways from 28 in last two rounds all decent hits. Easy to hit, straight (maybe not the longest driver I have ever hit) but I'm not compalining. If I could get this in a 3 wood, move over Mr. Sonartec!

The HB fairways are just like the driver - dead simple to hit straight, but not as long. But, if you're willing (and it sounds like you are) to sacrifice distance for accuracy, grab it.

OK, so I'm coming to US next week. Feel a need to buy a new 3 wood. I currently have the SS2.5 with OEM Fuji Tour Platform 26.3 S. Here's what I'm thinking...

Options:

Keep it and throw in a Graman UL540 S (courtesy of SSSmokin')

BRIDGESTONE J33 3 WOOD ALDILA VS PROTO REGULAR - anyone have any idea how the regular plays relative to a stiff?

TEE 3 WOOD 15 DEGREE - not sure what with, open to suggestions

HIBORE 3 WOOD 15 DEGREE WITH V2

I am also think a Nickent Hybrid 3DX - DC 20 DEGREE WITH UST 85G again open to suggestions on this thing.

Hey, week after (Sat 14), if there was a way to fit it in I would. I finish work on Friday 13th and will be in Raleigh, Durham. I fly outa Newark on Saturday evening at 8.30pm. I gotta figure a way to get a RedEye from NC to ??? to play golf, then make it to NY by 6pm. Any ideas? Sling, Ez?

You want to trade your J33 for my Sonartec SS 2.5 Fuji TP 26.3 14 degree? Keep talking...

What time do you finish on Friday? If you could get to Hartford or something I could pick you up Friday night on my way down. We play on Saturday AM at Sling's club and then it's 2.5 hours from there to Newark.

It's a stretch, but doable.

I'll get back to you. Might be too much of a stretch even for me!!
Might pop over to Chatanooga for a game with my mate BDCrowe!
