OFFICIAL MYGOLFSPY/COBRA CONNECT DRIVER CHALLENGE This is the official thread for our first ever MyGolfspy/Cobra Connect Driver Challenge! We have two teams who will spend the next month using their new Cobra F7 drivers equipped with Cobra Connect - an Arccos-driven driver shot tracking and stat-keeping sensor and app. ​The teams will be competing for individual weekly prizes as well as an overall Team prize. One contestant - the one who truly knocks it out of the park - will win a complete Cobra-PUMA makeover, including new clothes and shoes from PUMA as well as a full bag of custom-fit Cobra equipment. This should be fun! And so let's meet our two groups -- Team Rickie and Team Lexi! Team Rickie: Digiburdie BryanGolf TVgolfer TBT Team Lexi: J_Wurz EthanSterlingPrice BigtazzGolf strokerAce So here's how it's going to work - each week our contestants will post their stats from their Cobra Connect app. They'll be scored on the following categories from the app: 1. Driving handicap 2. Fairway accuracy 3. Smart Distance 4. Long drive 5. Overall number of drives detected In addition, our contestants will be active on Social Media and will be scored accordingly. They'll be using the hashtag #COBRACONNECTMGS The competition officially starts this Friday. Each Thursday the contestants will post their stats and we'll announce the weekly winner on Friday - the weekly winner will earn some slick PUMA apparel. Now here's where it gets interesting!!! Forum members who are not actually competing can win a weekly prize courtesy of Cobra-PUMA as well by participating in the thread - comment, trash talk, questions and general good humor will serve you well. Each contestant will kick off with a post letting you know a little about them, their game and what they're looking for from their new driver - sorta like the Miss America Pageant but with golfers. Let's get this party started!!!!

I finally had the chance to go to the range this weekend and put a little work in. After tinkering a little with my driver configuration this weekend, I started thinking of the poor state of custom fitting today. "Custom fitting" today means going in to the store and hitting a few shafts, picking a couple, tinkering with weights and positions and then finally coming up with a combo you like. The majority of the time is spent on arguable non-sense and the stuff that matters (the specs and info that isn't "pretty" in print ads) like: frequency matching the stiffness of the shaft, spine-ing, and flo-ing (flat-line oscillation) are largely ignored. Now let's put aside the debate over whether or not adjustability does anything. If you spine and flo your shafts (you should if you want consistency), you have to pull the shaft each time you want to change the settings. That real seems like the OEM's could care less if you take the time to make sure the shaft is correctly installed (they don't ). Going back to what started this train of thought... It's nice to see a company (Callaway Golf) actually pay attention and create an adjustability system that doesn't affect the shaft's alignment (also great for hand-stitched grips! Now when I tinker, I don't need a blow torch and epoxy on the range.

From today's InBox: Cobra is offering complimentary upgraded shafts (4 choices) on the Cobra FlyZ family of drivers and FW woods.... http://www.cobragolf.com/
