New Cleveland HiBore XLS

Has anybody heard of these new Hibores? They look pretty cool, I sure would like to see one in person.

Definitely attractive. I've never been disappointed with a Cleveland product.

My first set of clubs were Clevelands and Ive always been tempted to pick up a Hibore XL since they are so cheap now.

Ok, that's just wrong. I haven't had my XL that long and now this. But that draw version does look tempting. But I feel dirty, like I'm cheating on my XL every time I look at the XLS.

Missed that on my first fly by - thanks.

Me likee. I would definitely bag that thing, assuming it feels like the Hibore XL Tour did.

I'll hit one. If the XL had given me the dispersion of the original with more distance I was all ready to bag one last year.

I tried a 10.5 XL Tour this year out on the course smoking balls into a ravine while waiting on the 14th tee. I was killing that thing. I had to make an exaggerated swing because of the shaft, but I could just bomb it. I wanted to see if I could find an 8.5* Tour and put a decent shaft into it and see what it would do, but I was hitting my FT-3 so well, it made no sense.

Yeah, it figures; I finally decide that I am happy with the driver that I own and Cleveland shows me something that I can't resist.
