Cobra F8 Camo

Recommended Posts

New Releases from Cobra: Blue Camo and Desert Sand in the F8 Driver. 

 

I am a big fan of the Desert Sand but not so much the Blue Camo, I think the Blue looks gimmicky.

 

A Portion of the proceeds are going to Folds of Honor Foundation:

 

"We chose this logo because it reflects our mission - to honor the sacrifice of America's heroes, while giving hope to the bearers of their legacy."

I'd rock either of those if they worked for me. The blue would look better if the front part was black instead of also being blue.

The sand color is frickin awesome. My opinion on the blue is out until I see an actual photo of what the head looks like, not just a rendering.

Ehhh, actually notably different to my eyes. The camo pattern and wings are much-less bold on the actual club which is what sort of looked tacky in the rendering. I don't think I'd buy it over their standard black one, but doesn't look hideous.

I have the F6+ driver in black with white alignment Cobra and the thin white outline around the back of the head and the orange slide adjustment. The 3-4 fairway in gray with all the same in lime green. Finally the 7-8 fairway in blue. All the colors are awesome, but one this really stands out on each club....cobra KING and the cobra alignment.

No matter how much I try, I just can't get into the blue camo. The desert sand is definitely playable though. Either way, the cause they're supporting is fantastic and well worthy of the support.

I think the Desert sand model is very appealing. I couldn't game the blue camo personally but it does look pretty cool.

I preferred the plain navy F8 that was in a previous post more than the camo.

They both look amazing but I like the detail in the blue one more. I have the F8+ 3/4 wood and wish this option was available for it when I purchased the wood.
