Dustin,

That’s really close, both were fun to hit. Personally, I’d opt for the E725 because of the adjustable weighting.

Hi Matt,

In a battle of new release $400 forgiving drivers, what’s your opinion on the Cleveland HiBore XL vs the Tour Edge E725?
Thanks,
Dustin

Gary,

Thank you!
If you’re trying to get more distance, you need to get fitted. There’s no way for anyone on the internet to tell you what combination of head, specs, and shaft will get the most out of your swing.

Best,

Matt

I love your website. I am a former Chicagoan now living in Michigan, a young 72 with a 80 mph swing speed. Accuracy is one of my strong points but I would like to get more distance than my Cobra King F8 is getting me now. I like both the new Callaway HiBore and the Sub 70 859 and I read your fine reviews. Which club do you think I would like better or is there something else I should consider?
Thanks,
Gary

So at address I’m focused on the rear of the head not the face or the ball. Not having tried it, I’m wondering how this effects ball striking. I’m thinking this would help keep my head behind the ball at impact. What an interesting club and article, Matt Thank you.

Thanks, Chuck.
I don’t have head to head data, but my recollection is that the Paradym accomplishes a lot of the same things with a more conventional shape. I would guess the Paradym edges out the HiBore XL on ball speed by a small amount.

Best,

Matt

First of all, I love and value your reviews. You are truly exceptional at your craft. How does this driver compare to the Callaway Paradym?
