After considerable success with a new HiBore driver, I'm now looking at the fairway woods. Has anyone had any experience with them and what can I expect i.e. comparing them with The 904F?

Thanks in advance for any thoughts.

Well, you'd likely want to compare them to the 906F. As soon as I can finish some other projects, too, I have a HiBore (and a 906F) fairway wood review to write.

I like the HiBore, but it doesn't feel quite as workable as the Titleist. A bit more stable (forgiving), a tad higher launch.

I have the 15* with the V2 75 stiff

So far Im loving it. I was really pleased with the hiBore 19* Hybrid that came out recently (i didnt try the halo) so started looking into other HiBore Clubs and recently bought this.

From what Ive read, the hiBore driver really needs to be fitted properly to get full benefit, but the fairway seemed to be fine ( I just bought knowing I liked the V2).

As its fall up here in the Northeast, I dont know what my distances are (gain/same/lost) but so far the club feels great. Agreed, high launch, but ive always played Cleveland fairway woods so cant compare to the Titleists (have a 905s in the bag tho).

Im now going to get a 13* (i can use it on my course more effectively) but will keep the 15* for different courses, bag set ups.

In closing: Im very happy with both HiBore clubs Ive bought so far.

Hope this helps!

F-n Awesome!!!! I Had a Callaway X and the HiBore is not any longer - but WAAAAAAAAY straighter and easier to get airborne. I've tried them all. I like this club better than the HiBore rescue or driver! and I have both! I went with a 5 wood in the hi-bore instead of a 3 wood this time. It paid off.

    • Day 106: did a stack session. 
    • Day 292 - Filmed some swings focusing on the same thing (setup, grip, wrist at the top).
    • Day 182 (31 Oct 24) - Shorter session today.  Worked with the 5i - setup, alignment and overall tempo - hitting into the net.  
    • Thanks! It actually briefly dropped to 5.8 at some point in July, but it felt like it was too rich for my blood every moment of the whole two weeks I held the 'level' for me to sustain it. The term 'impostor syndrome' comes to mind.. :-)) I have certainly done better than I have in the previous years to stay the course in how and what I have practiced but yes, it's a high probability that I'm leaving a lot on the table.    
    • Dang... in the realm of things that probably don't matter all that much, golf slumps are the worst. Yes definitely consult a pro ASAP. Get back to hitting it solid again. Hitting the sweet spot solves a lot of problems. For me it's always the latter. My confidence grows as I hit more and more solid shots, which are the result of continuing to improve my swing thru better concepts, better practice, etc.  Yea, this for sure. And also, without a professional there to let you know you "did it better this time" it can be unnecessarily frustrating and confounding working alone. It's not that you can't work alone; clearly, you can. But during rough patches, it's always smart to consult professionals. Lessons are an amazing place to take new concepts and turn them into feels that you are confident will work. It's still really cool you consider this your best ever season. Congrats on hitting 7.8 this year!
