NEW COBRA DRIVERS?

[Jdavenp3]

Well, the matte carbon is the leader in the clubhouse in looks for my next purchase. That thing looks awesome. Face is really intriguing too.

[Z1ggy16]

Very interesting looks. I think that crown will actually help a lot with alignment because of the face kind of extending on to the crown area. I've heard some sound clips of this being hit on Tour and it sounds really nice. Loved the F9 as far as looks & sound/feel went, so I'm glad to see Cobra didn't alter that too much.

[osubuckeyes691]

So what’s the big advancement in tech with this driver? Just the wrap around milled face?

[averysdad]

Well ****....I was happy just having my

M6 in the bag.....now I’ll be forced to try this out.

[TheMoneyShot]

is The matte black the “tour” head?

I'm guessing that it might be a single piece milled, cup face. If yes, that could make the face more forgiving than the current design where the milled part is welded in place.

 

Again, this is pure speculation on my part.

I'll be seeing all the new models on Friday. Have already hit the T-Rail irons. Very effective for what they are designed to do.

[SubaruWRX]

NO MORE SKY MARKS!!!

[Puttersaurus Rex]

I hope Cobra keeps the pressure on the other manufacturers with lower pricing.

[StarFleetGolfer]

I think it looks great. The alignment aid is non issue.

[Les Strokes]

I like the alignment aid. I don't watch enough TV

There is no 'tour' head. There is the replacement for F9 (SZ) and the additional SZ Xtreme (high MOI) head. Both come in gloss crown with yellow details, or matte crown with white details.

Hahaha yes! 100% confidence letting 'that' friend have a hit with it.

[TheMoneyShot]

High gloss looks better to my eye.

[Stanks]

Looking super rad.

 

I’m hesitant to grab a set of forged tour one lengths when the new season is coming. I don’t thing they’d do a of forged tec and forged tour in the same year would they?

From what I've heard it stays the same next year

No cup face. The milling extends to around the edge to thin the corners and edges uniformly. The goal is to help keep ball speeds up across the face.

Hmm. Curious how that works then. From the picture it looks like it is continuously milled, i.e. I don't see any weld spots.

[mrmikeac]

Lol as irrelevant as this is by now, these are now on the conforming list

I am not clear on that either.

Perhaps there will some kind of explanation when they officially release it.

 

I wasn't planning up upgrading from my F9..................

[SwingBlues]

Whats the loft adjustability for these new Cobras?

[jvincent]

> @SwingBlues said:

Looks like the same as the F9. A 9* model and a 10.5* model. Each one can be adjusted up or down 1.5*.

[rsh0308]

As much as I like seeing these pics, hope the rep who let them get taken doesn’t get canned.

[ASN21]

Yep, that alignment aide is probably the worst I have ever seen.

[Z1ggy16]

Embargo ends tonight at mid night? I assume we'll see a flood of reviews from the typical guys hiting youtube tomorrow?

I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder (I think the entire package looks incredible), but I’m curious what’s so bad about it? I personally like it more than the old Cobra logo as an alignment mark.

I'm excited just because it's been a while since any new big sticks have come out. However, I'm not expecting much in terms of performance. I'm just hoping that the stock set up is a little more flat and a little bit lower spin. Not as flat and low spin as LTD but I struggled with spinning the F9 a little bit too much. Granted it was a fairway finding MACHINE when I hit it... I was giving up like 20 yards to Flash/M5 etc but I strongly preferred the looks and feel. Looking back on how I played this year I could have probably used the extra spin and stayed in the short stuff more.

Think Crossfield gets more than 262 out of any of these????
