Last years cleveland hibore for 150

or the R5 Dual Driver 150(Neutral)

they r both on sale on many of the common sites i was wondering what was better

The R5 Duel is a real power bomber if you are able to kill the ball. Great driver that I'm deciding between that and the r7 460.

From what I hear the original HiBore is a chore to use and just not as good as the XL version.
In my Viper by Hippo Golf stand bag:
Driver: Cleveland HiBore 10.5° Fujikara reg. flex
Woods: 3- MacGregor NVG2 Fujikara reg. flex
Hybrids: 3 & 4-Taylor Made Rescue Mid

You could buy the HiBore XL I have on offer in my sig (currently) for $250 shipped.

Last year's HiBore was a bit of a dud. This year's is selling and performing really well.

I feel it's my duty in life to trash the r5. And that's saying a lot because I've loved every other TM product I've ever owned. Could've just been me, but I couldn't hit it well to save my life. I blame the TM MAS Shaft. Probably would've been nice reshafted with an Adila NV65.

I can´t say anything about the older version but I have to say that the Hibore XL is by far the best driver I have hit. My last driver was a Ping G5 and for ME the XL is longer and (more importantly) more forgiving. I´ve hit a lot of shots around the toe area of the clubface and the ball still goes straight. Highly recommended driver.

Driver: Smooth 9° E160 regular.
3 wood: Fast 10 15° Wasabi regular.
Hybrid: Fybrid 19.5° V2 regular.
Irons: Ci7 4-GW regular steel.
SW: CG10 56°.Putter: White Hot XG Marxman Mini 34".The rest of my set is still work in progress....

    • Terry - what a story…I’m about 12 yrs your junior but I do have friends in similar places of life. Like others have said - “go for it”.  The fact that you’re willing to challenge yourself in the midst of dealing with something like Parkinson’s is hero level stuff….looking forward to seeing how this great adventure plays out and make sure to get some of it on video as well.  Make them memories dude! 
    • Played nine today. Just went out trying to make a swing that had the feels of what I am working on. I would give it a C- at best. The best swing came on the 9th hole, 220 yard par 3, downwind. I finally made a swing where I felt the pause, and the arms down stuff like I practice. I hit the 4 iron about 215 yards, it rolled just off the back of the green about 20-Ft from the pin.  I might play 10 yards shorter on every iron shot, and make that pause swing, cause I can still hit it about 90-95% the distance.  Distance wedges or 3/4 wedges are going to different. Shanked two of them today trying the pause, arms down stuff. Might spend a bit of time looking at the video on those shots specifically.   
    • Day 350: good practice session today. Hit about 25 balls, working slowly on my priority piece. It looks decent in slow motion. Better at full speed but not quite there. Then putted for about an hour. Focused on putts inside 10’ but also did a stack putting session. 
    • Two of my golfing Buddie's are left handed. I will play a couple of rounds and use their clubs and see how I do.  Played last Thursday and had the worst game ever. (Playing in really strong winds. (SW @ 20 to 30 mph with > gusts.)  Will let everyone know when I get back out. May not play until Monday.   Thanks everyone, for your encouragement.    Terry
