As a golf club salesman I would recommend the HiBore...the weight is put in the back of the club, creating a higher MOI(Moment of Inertia)...this MOI is usually higher than the Burners...the Burner is a great club though....go to your local shop and test one out...

I have a Burner a hit it well,but don't get much distance for some reason. During a fitting session the other day the club pro suggested that I try the Cobra M Speed he said they have the hottest head out and should add some distance. He didn't have the correct specs for me to try correctly. I was thinking that the HiBore and Cobra were fairly similar in looks, and I to try to hit the HiBore at some point.

I switched to the Hi Bore XL this year from a Taylormade driver and havent looked back since. I hit the Hi Bore longer, with a much better ball flight.

I went with 9.5 with the red shaft. At the fitting I was told to go with red 9.5 or gold 8.5. I liked the feel of the red better.

Psst, it's not the club.
There are plenty of guys out there with boring clubs like the R5 that are absolutely crushing the ball. Looking for that elusive magical club that will tack 25-50 yds on to your distance is futile.

I switched from the R5. I know the shaft had a lot to do with it but the face on the Hi Bore is definitely hotter

tried the 9,5 with the red shaft, was a hooking machine. I truly believe that it was this club, since I had one with a gold shaft and the face was not nearly as shut. What do you expect its made in china LOL prolly at the same factory as the dog food. Anyway I'm still looking. Going to toss up a post on the nike square, RD has a sale on them for 299. seems to work for KJ lol i'll report back

      Eh. He broke ONE of Tiger's records. Youngest to be ranked #1 in AJGA. It didn't help that Tiger's birthday is in late December, or that Tiger didn't play many AJGA events before he was 15. Did he do any of these things? TIGER WOODS' AMATEUR VICTORIES YEAR WIN(S) 1984 10-and- under Junior World Golf Championships Boys    1985 10-and- under Junior World Golf Championships Boys    1988 Boy's 11-12 Junior World Golf Championships   1989 Boy's 13-14 Junior World Golf Championships   1990 Boy's 13-14 Junior World Golf Championships, Insurance Youth Golf Classic   1991 U.S. Junior Amateur, Boys 15–17 Junior World Golf Championships, Orange Bowl International Junior Look at some other AJGA Players of the Year. How many of these names do you recognize? A few, for sure. I assure y'all, I'm not trying to pee in your Cheerios. I just don't get what the point is. Okay. I get that, then. Thanks.

      Day 56: 4/19/2024 Okay, even though I'll be teeing it up in a tournament in less than a week. I couldn't find time to get to the range today.  I spent time on the indoor putting mat.  And I spent time in front of the mirror with my 7 iron. Then again later with the driver.  I also thoroughly cleaned all my clubs.

      Just stumbled onto the article.  Totally random and thought it might be interested to hear other thoughts. maybe I am tired of all the LIV crap and  this just caught my attention.
