Cleveland Golf HiBORE XLS Driver user reviews
xls awesome club
2/16/2008
Handicap 10 - 15
I just switched to the bi-bore xls 9.5* from a Taylormade R7 10.5* and gained 20+ yards off the tee and in the center of the fairway. This club has a great feel and builds confidence, which is the most important element.
I highly reccommend you at least Demo it.

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
my avg swing speed is about 80 to 90 . what would be the best Shaft Flex for me

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,
Johnny

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+
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.

i have the graphalloy prolaunch 65 and it works great!is is very flexible.
What is the differnece between the CG Hi Bore XLS with the fit on red stiff shaft and the fit on Gold stiff shaft?
A
03/11/2009 1:55 PMGolfballs.com Employee: Andy
Thank you for your inquiry. The only difference between the two shafts is the weight which promotes different ball flights. The Fit On Gold is a 0 gram weight offering higher ball flight while the Fit On Red is a 65 gram shaft offering lower ball flights.
My avg club speed was measured to be 108 mph , should I be looking at a extra stiff shaft

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.
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.
