What's in Your (Contest-Winning) Cobra Bag?


GolfSpy MPR

Recommended Posts

I expect that we're obviously all pretty excited about the Cobra contest announced today. I certainly didn't want to mess up the contest application thread, but I thought it would be fun to post what set of Cobra clubs we'd have our eyes on if chosen.

 

So I'll start:

 

F8 Driver, stiff, set at 10°, maybe a half-inch short

F8 3-4 Fairway, set at 15.5°

F8 One Length 3 and 4 hybrids

F8 One Length 5-GW

King PŪR 54° and 58° wedges

 

I've really been wanting to give single-length irons a try. I tend to be overly-analytic about golf, likely to my own detriment, but the single-length idea absolutely intrigues me.

 

What would be in your Cobra bag?

:titleist-small: TS3 9.5°, Tensei Blue

You've pretty much already named my bag that I purchased a month ago. Good luck to you and I'm happy to see you'd go the one length route.

Driver and 3w F8+

3 and 4 hybrids

F8 5-9 w/ 7i length shafts

Pur 50, 56, 60 w/ PW length shafts

 

Personally not a fan of how short the lob wedges can be sometimes and I know quite a few pros have all their wedges the same length

Unless I misread, I believe that it is only for clubs the F8 range and only King wedges. So I don't think the PUR is eligible. But I could be very wrong!!

M...great idea for a thread IMO   Just one clarification, and not to rain on your idea but just want everyone to be aware it's not a contest per se, it's a Testing Application Thread.   There is a big commitment that comes with being selected for this test, both in putting the clubs in play all season and being active on Social Media with your results.  So while we encourage everyone to apply if they can meet the commitment, we want them tor realize it's not just a "contest" for a set of clubs.

 

All that said...Let's see what everyone would choose to game for the season..also another disclaimer answering in this thread will not influence the selection either way!!

I will not be entering the contest. But it sure looks interesting and fun. Best of luck to those chosen.

 

I posted in the contest page.... but now that's up to 36  or more pages I probably won't get a reply to my question. That being...

 

How are the clubs going to be fit to you? Are contestants to just tell MGS or Cobra what specs they "think" they need? Or will Cobra do a fitting? Will it be an online fitting? (which I disagree with anywhere)

 

Seems to me; and as all of us constantly harp about how important a proper fitting is; shouldn't these clubs should be fit to each player? I think basically they will all be OTR so to speak. What am I missing? Are Cobra clubs so good that a proper fitting isn't necessary?

I would imagine that you would go to your local club fitter and then provide the specs from that fitting to MGS

My guess/hope Plaid would be if you were selected to test that you be be committed to spending a little bit of money (maybe the money for new clubs that wouldn't be necessary if chosen) to go through a fit, because the importance of it is paramount to a fair and substantial test. I know that would be my decision to go through if selected for sure.

 

EDIT:

 

My pre-fit bag would probably look a little something like this.

Definitely an important clarification. While all who applied undoubtedly hope to be chosen, the regulars on the site know that choosing those who will follow through on the commitment to testing and reviewing ends up being a win for all of us.

I'm probably sure when these "big" contests" or reviews are put forth I always say the same things. And speaking from experience (only once) if you don't think or feel you can perform a really ....I mean really good job both in time, writing, photos and perhaps spending a little money if needed. Don't apply!!!

 

As for my previous post regarding fitting these clubs.... I'm not sure how that's going to work. Maybe one of our MGS guys can set us straight.

 

For my one and only review for the SLDR in 2014 I only had a shaft option to choose from. And it worked out believe it or not. One out of a 100 I'd bet.

Also if you are choosing to not apply there is no need to tell us you are choosing to not apply...especially twice in 2 different threads. Believe it or not we are smart enough to figure out if your name isn't on the list we won't pick you.

Chill out Meyer. I didn't say or suggest you or anyone working for or volunteering for MGS isn't smart.

If I did please quote it for us.

Unavailable to me unfortunately, but looking forward to seeing a range of gear being tested out by the chosen ones.  One length up against variable would be interesting to see for guys off a similar handicap. 

 

Hopefully this years selections are all active and ongoing forum members, not guys after some free gear for a few posts.

I've never had a proper fitting, so I'd be very interested to see what clubs I should actually be gaming. That said, based on wants, my bag would go something like this.

 

F8 tour length 9.5*

F8+ 4-5 fairway 17.5*

F8 4 hybrid

F8 5-LW

Vokey SM6  52* and 58*

Hybrid - Cobra F8 3 Hybrid with Aldila ATX Tour Green 

Irons - Cobra F8 4 - PW with Project X LZ 6.0

Wedges - King PUR - 50*, 56* (bent to 54*) and 60* with PX LZ 6.0

 

 

:taylormade-small:  M3 460 9.5* - ACCRA TZ6 M5

:callaway-small:  X2 Hot Pro - 15* Aldila Tour Green X

TaylorMade Jetspeed 19* w Matrix HM9

Hmm...  I think I would go with the one length F8 irons.  My interest with those irons is just because it eliminates one of the variables in equipment for me...  I'd have to work with a fitter to see what makeup the set would comprise of to ensure that the gapping is even.  My current set is a 3-PW set but I'm wondering if I wouldn't benefit from a 5-GW setup with more hybrids on the bottom end.  I think I would go with the King Black one length wedges, so I can test the durability of the black finish through the season and continue with the one length theory.  As for the driver, again I don't think I'd choose until I get with a fitter and see which F8 series head works best for me.  After all, the ultimate goal for this testing opp is to see how much you could improve with a completely fitted set with the arccos system.

Great thread. If nine of the local guys could do a decent fitting I'd probably drive 2 hours to the nearest Club Champion in Chicago for the full bag experience. Wouldn't want to assume that just because my current setup works that new clubs with the same specs would also fit.

I expect that we're obviously all pretty excited about the Cobra contest announced today. I certainly didn't want to mess up the contest application thread, but I thought it would be fun to post what set of Cobra clubs we'd have our eyes on if chosen.

 

So I'll start:

 

F8 Driver, stiff, set at 10°, maybe a half-inch short

F8 3-4 Fairway, set at 15.5°

F8 One Length 3 and 4 hybrids

F8 One Length 5-GW

King PŪR 54° and 58° wedges

 

I've really been wanting to give single-length irons a try. I tend to be overly-analytic about golf, likely to my own detriment, but the single-length idea absolutely intrigues me.

 

What would be in your Cobra bag?

Based on the original Cobra test thread it looks like a full bag of F8 product. I'm curious if Tour length driver is available in the F8+. If not I think I would be:

Driver- F8+ Nardo Grey Hzrdous Yellow X Stiff

Fairway- F8+ 3-4 X Stiff

Hybrid- Don't see X Flex availability in Hybrid or Utility so if true I would add the 4-5 Fairway in X. If X available in F8 hybrid I'm picking 3H or in Utility Black I'm going 2-3

Irons- A lot of possibilities here so sort of depends on if it's F8 only or you can do a Forged Tech Combo. If it's stock F8 I'm going F8 4-GW in Nippon Modus 3 120 X or KBS $ Taper Chrome Black X. If it's a combo then I'm doing the Forged Tech black in the 4&5 irons

Wedges- the King Black is pretty sexy. I'm thinking 56 in Classic grind and 60 in Versatile grind. I'm a slider not a digger so the low bounce 60 for me.

Side note- I spent a lot of time on Cobra's website looking at the options and saw something that has me smh. In the wedge section where they describe the wedge approach angle the word Neutral is misspelled in big bold letters at each grind. "Nuetral" in 3 different places. That's a little thing but someone other than the consumer should be catching that.

:callaway-small: Rogue 15 degree Evnflow Blue 6.5

Back in the Bag :srixon-small: Z765 4-G Nippon Modus 120 Stiff

:vokey-small: 54 and 60

I'm curious as to whether winners will get a choice of one length vs. graduated length irons. I'd try anything.

 

I do feel like one length irons are a great idea for beginning golfers. Eliminating a variable can only help someone just starting out.

 

And maybe someone who's been playing for 38 years as well.
