Cleveland XLS Golf Drivers - Reviews

On 2008-07-16, Gary. Thailand. rated this Cleveland XLS a 5...(8133)

Details: HiBore XLS. 10.5, Standard shaft, Stiff flex.

Purchase: Contacted Thailand Cleveland rep via Internet. Was put in touch with local rep. I initially made contact to buy a gap wedge, but decided to buy driver also hoping that it would add a few yards off the tee. Service has been good from Cleveland reps. Cost 13,500Baht.
Pros: The club looks and feels right at address giving confidence. The club looks and feels shorter than my previous driver, but in fact is same length. When hit correctly nice ball flight and straight. Easy to use off the fairway.
Cons: Being left handed I have the usual problem of buying before trying. So any new club is a bit hit and miss. My old driver was a Ping G2 with a stiff Tour AD YS-5 shaft. The Cleveland shaft is much more whippy and in hind site I might have been better off buying a red shaft.
Quality: Construction excellent. One of my regular caddies described it as 'beautiful'

Review Summary: I really like this club, but admit to being a little dissapointed that I'm not getting an extra 20 yards with it. I put that down to me, not the club. I hit it about 220-240 with backspin on the fairway. No roll on wet fairways.
