Description The new Cleveland HiBore irons. 3-PW set with a large club face, and an even larger back. The clubs look a bit unusual at address, but really hit the ball well. They have a nice soft pop on contact an...
Summary: WOW! I have played all the clubs in my 20 years but these clubs are...well, WOW! First and 2nd time out didn't think I made a wise purchase but then after reading reviews here...I realized I had to slow down and what a difference that made. I have never been able to hit a 3 iron but am 180 yrds with this one. I ordered the SW and now the 1i. All hit straight and I had 2up with my pings. These are flat and a nice tempo swing "gets 'er done"!

Summary: Im 12 and these clubs helped boost my confidence. I was playing Ping G5 with graphite shafts and they were too whippy and I couldn't hit the 4,5 iron. These clubs are easy to hit and i've gone down 1 or 2 clubs. I can hit the 8 iron 150+ yds where i could barely hit my old 7 iron that far. Also, the long hybrids are easy to hit. I can hit the 3 hybrid 220+ yards easy.

Summary: I recently bought a set of the BiBore irons. 3 thru PW. I went for the regular graphite shafts as I could no longer play the tour blades with stiff shafts due to shoulder surgery. The HiBore clubs have given me new life. They hit hard with little effort and are extremely accurate. They have given me back my game. I just wish they offered a SW to complete the set. Also would like a 2 and maybe even a 1 hybrid so I can can the fairway woods.

Summary: I am an AVID golf club tinkerer, always trying to find a better club/shaft/ball combination. I bought these irons last season, and immediately liked them, and they complimented my style of play. Well, this season, I dusted off some Callaway Big Berthas, and some Cleveland TA-6's, played a couple of rounds with each set, and guess what....the Hi Bores are back in the bag. My handicap started at 6.4 with the Hi Bores, but went up to 7.7 with the other clubs, so I'm back to these...with one change. I put them on a set of Rifle Flighted shafts, and to me, they are even more stable now. I found the original Cleveland shaft to be a little too "wippy", resulting in either a push fade if the shaft didn't square up, or a nasty pull if it came through the hitting area too fast. I couldn't control the flex of the origianl shaft. The Rifles take all that out of my mind. Step up to the ball, aim the club, pull the trigger, and it goes where I want. A great club. And definitely one club stronger than normal. In fact, I'm thinking about taking the 5 wood out of my bag since I can hit the 3 and 4 irons 220 and 205. The wedge I cannot vouch for since I play the Cleveland series of wedges, I don't use the one in the set.
Customer Service: Bought the clubs at Golf Galaxy, installed the Rifle Shafts myself.
