Cleveland Golf HiBore XL Driver
This item is out of stock
Manufacturer Description
The Cleveland HiBore XL Driver has taken Distance Driven Geometry to a whole new level with a driver that is straighter and longer than the original Cleveland HiBore driver. Distance Driven Geometry moves weight lower and deeper in the clubhead resulting in a center of gravity (CG) that is fully aligned with the hot spot in the center of the club face. This Full Face Performance combined with a high Moment of Inertia (MOI) offers optimal launch conditions over a larger area of the face for stability on off-center hits, greater distance and maximum ball speed.
- Cleveland Hibore XL Distance Driven Geometry
- Face-centered sweet spot for superior distance and stability on off-center hits
- Sleek black pearl finish
- Fujikura graphite shaft designed with a low kickpoint and active tip section

I've been fortunate enough to have tried many drivers over the last few years and I believe that the Hibore XL ranks right up there with the best. The lower center of gravity gives me the optimal launch angle that I'm looking for. The ball simply jumps off the clubface. This driver will remain with me for a while.

My drives off the tee have been to say, all over the place! When I had the experience to try the HiBore XL for the first time, I found myself hitting the ball off the tee straighter. The kickpoint, low center of gravity, had me hitting with greater accuracy without sacrificing distance.

With my occasional play, I need a very forgiving driver and this is it. It made my play much more enjoyable. The sweet spot is almost as big as the face it seems.

This has to be the best driver I've ever tried in my life. It has a massive sweetspot that any body can hit. I love the Scoop-back design and the awesome grip. I would recommend this club to any body.

I play in the mid eighties on average length courses, and have a normal drive with a draw. My misses are pull hooks. The Cleveland HiBore XL grabbed my attention first because I wanted a 460cc driver without a closed face. Having test driven a few of the 460 big brands, it came down to the Burner 460 and the HiBore XL. The HiBore is the one we chose over the closed face Burner. The launch angle of 10.5 deg head and R Flex shaft was perfect for my 90 to 95 mph swing. I like the 46" shaft over the stand

Frequently asked questions about
Hello,
I understand most drivers come in a 10.5 and 9.5 degree loft. I use a 10.5. When teeing off, my ball usually has a lot of loft and goes really high in the air, should I switch to a 9.5 degree

Thank you for your question.
Is it worth testing out? Absolutely. Will the 9.5 give you a more penetrating ball flight is the question. Most golfers would kill to have more hang time but I know how you feel. I was in the same boat at one time and tested different lofts much like you. I ended up staying with the higher loft though. I would test it prior to officially making a move.
Play Well,
Johnny

The higher loft will also be more controllable of the tee..

If you are not a low handicap golfer, where you play can make a lot of difference in driver loft choices. In the northern US. especially on the plains, wind can be a huge factor in driver loft effect. We have 160 yd par 3's where 10/12 handicap golfers are using drivers straight into a 35 mph wind. I use a 9.5 TM Burner draw. But I have a Titlist 10.5 I take to Phoenix (low or no wind) and FL (tree lined courses). High trajectory on windy links courses can really beat you up with a high loft. //

In general, the 9.5 degree will tend to give a lower ball flight. However, the shaft also contributes to launch angle. Find a Golf shop that has a simulator that can measure your swing path, launch angle, club-head speed, ball speed, spin and distance. With this information, your Pro can tell you if you need a different club, or just a new shaft.

Thank you for your question.
You would fall in the 'Regular' flex category based upon your swing speed.
Please let me know if you have any other questions.
Thank you,

You're definitely a regular flex
Senior flex starts from 70-80
Regular is from 80 to about 100
Stiff 100 to 115ish
X-stiff 115+

My driver swing speed is 90mph, straight ball flight, and using the Burner driver, I need a stiff shaft. With the regular I do not have the same control as with the stiff shaft and distance is almost identical. Try one out on a range or on a monitor. Swing speeds do not always reflect the correct shaft for your swing. It's only a generic number but is a good starting point.

I have used the YS-6 shaft in the 905T and the FT-i with pretty good success. Can you name me a couple other shafts that you think would give me the same "feel" and control? Thanks.

Thank you for your inquiry. There are a few other brands that have similar weight and launch profiles of the Graphite Design YS series. You should notice that the Aldila NVS 65, the Graphalloy ProLaunch 65, the UST V2 67, and the Fujikura E360 are all very comparable.

My avg club speed was measured to be 108 mph , should I be looking at a extra stiff shaft
Anonymous

That clubhead speed is considered to be high enough for an extra stiff. Typically speaking, anyone who can swing their driver 105+ should be in extra stiff.

which shaft is better between regular and stiff
Anonymous

Great Question. Everything is subjective to your swing though. Do you tend to swing slower or more quickly? The rule of thumb is that if your swing speed is slower than 95mph then you should probably get a regular flex driver and if your swing is over 100mph then you should probably get a stiff flex driver. That leaves a little grey area that you from 95 to 100 where you can use either flex.
I hope this helps.
