Cleveland HiBore XL in my cart...

[PeterMan]

At tgw.com right now, price comes up as $134.89 once you add it to your cart, advertised price is $149.88... I have the Fit-on Gold shaft chosen, stiff and 10.5 degrees of loft...

I am currently playing an Adams Redline 9.5* with the Fujikura stock Stiff shaft...

I tend to hit a low trajectory on my good drives, control is an issue...

I am really tempted to hit the "buy" button, just wondering what some might think of the HiBore as specced here as an upgrade to what I am currently playing...

Thanks!

The XL is a wonderful head. The stock shafts are crap tho, IMO.

I've got a 9.5º HiBore XL with a UST Proforce V2 HL R-flex shaft I'll sell you for $120.00. Crystal clean. Not a mark on it. Includes headcover.

The only reason I'm selling it is that I bought an XL with 10.5º of loft, since I tend to flight the ball pretty low.

You can't go wrong with the XL. I've tried most every driver known to man kind and I keep coming back to the XL. I've yet to try the Tour version, but I will eventually.

Let me check with my son Eracer. He is looking for a new driver, he wants a 10.5º but I'll ask if he'd be interested.

Cool. PM me if there's any interest.

I bought a 8.5 XL Tour and I absolutely fell in love with it. It has a smaller head than the regular XL which was good for me since I cannot stand big driver heads. I also have a history of major slices but have recently been drawing the ball. The tour version is a 3* open face and I have yet to slice it. Very stout club and glad I bit on it when I did. Got mine for 130 shipped a month ago from a pro shop on ebay.

It is a great club, go for it.

As rock said, the stock shafts are terrible. So when you get that thing you are gonna want to reshaft it.

If you dont mind spending a bit extra $$ to reshaft it, then id say go ahead. What i might do is check on ebay for one with a upgraded shaft, and then make a new post here asking if those shafts specs would fit you.

[PeterMan]

Thanks for all the responses! I did not buy it but am still considering my options...

So I found an ebay store selling the HiBore for $109.99 with the Grafalloy Pro Launch Blue 65S shaft!

Just confirmed payment and I am now anxiously awaiting my new driver...

The ProLaunch Blue is pretty stout, but if you can bring the swingspeed it's a really good shaft. Should help your control problems, for sure.
