Description HiBore technology has taken the golf industry by storm since it's original introduction two short years ago. The unique "scoop back" design moves weight lower and deeper in the head to optimize launch...
Summary: Bought this driver when i was looking to upgrade. Heard dome good reviews so bought it without trying one out. The sound, even when you hit it good has to be the worst part of this. It has a loud ping that sounds just like a metal baseball bat. The head is huge and almost to the point of distracting. I was also way more inconsistent with this driver than any other. Not a horrible driver, but try to sample one before you buy, make sure it is for you.

Summary: I have hit several drivers since I have been playing, but I like this one the most! This thing sounds wicked when you make solid contact with the ball. I've only been playing three years now, and I have hit a Ping G5 for a couple months, a Taylormade Burner Draw for a couple rounds and this one for the past month. I'm not one of those people that get new clubs because I think they will make me play better, I've just had bad luck with breaking shafts [I've played baseball my whole life, so I started out trying to kill the ball] I got rid of the Taylormade because I couldn't work the ball enough with it, (I couldn't fade it). With the Cleveland, I've been killing the ball, I can hit it straight, I can draw it, and I can fade it. the best part is I only paid $135 for it and that was brand new!! Honestly I'm a high handicapper, and I can't tell you that this driver will make you drive the ball a mile further, or fix your slice or your hook, but I can tell you it is a very nice club, especially if you can pick one up for around the price I did

Summary: I had the Cleveland HiBore XL in a 10.5* loft with the Fit On Red Stiff Shaft. This is a great club ! ! It is very forgiving and hits a mile ! The club does make a very loud CRACK when you hit it, but when you can hit the ball long with this you will want people to pay attention when you hit it !!
It has to be one of the best drivers I have hit ! !
Customer Service: Never used it at a Pro Shop, never had any issues with the quality.

Shoots in the 80s
Model Reviewed: Cleveland Hibore XL
Summary: The best driver i have ever hit. Tested anything and everything i could get my hands on and this by far the best . At least thirty yards farther than a Nike SQ2. Former driver was a taylormade r5 dual and this just blows it out of the water. Fujikura Red shaft produces amazing bal flight.

Summary: First driver I've ever owned in which I have more confidence off the tee than I do with a 3 wood! Plenty long, plenty straight, and plenty forgiving.
