Finished 5th out of 9 teams in the scramble this morning.  My three playing partners were all 65+ so it was pretty much up to me if we wanted a tee shot more than 200 yards.  Putting handicap was pretty good considering we had 4 tries at every putt.

When I was in the clubhouse enjoying an after round beverage my Ring doorbell gave me a notification of someone at my front door.

That's exciting! Nothing like getting boxes delivered, it's like Christmas in May.

Maybe Cobra can send you 14 wedges, looks like that would benefit you most.

That is the best line yet and he’s not even in the competition.

I went to the range today and the club pro was giving lessons to the guy next to me. He had the F9 one lengths and boy was he struggling with them. He moved to the driver and the pro had him wait until the fairway on the right cleared before he’d let him hit. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a slice like his.

I wanted to hit his clubs so bad but I left them alone.

Oooh, it's always exciting to get new sticks, one of the best feelings in golf!

 Y'all also might benefit from 56 wedges between y'all. 😉

So far, I'd agree you are a +4. Nunfa0 is great, I've given him plenty of crap in this thread already, and he hasn't strangled me (yet). 😜

Clearly, you've never seen me hit a slice. 

I would have loved for you to hit them too, someone tell @bardle to hurry up and get/hit his one lengths!

Just keep the comments and fun coming boys, I have broad shoulders and can take it 😁😎

On another note the matchplay team I have played for a few times this year won the competition today 😄😁. I didn't play but went along and caddied for my brother. He won his game after a back and forth fight.

They arrive on Tuesday! 

I probably won't hit them for a while though while I build my baseline. If they were conventional I might but I don't want to get used to the one lengths and negatively skew my baseline switching back to my old gamers. I don't want anyone to have an excuse when I win this thing. 

It's gonna take so much willpower to ignore the new shiny things and keep going with my current clubs. 😬

Took about 50 pictures of the new clubs this morning before I get them all dirty.  I still have one more baseline round to get in (hopefully later this week) before fully breaking these bad boys out.  It's going to be extremely difficult to have them sit in my house and not use them.

I'll post more pictures over the next few days along with my thoughts on how they compare to my current clubs.

Ladies and gentlemen, let me present a few pictures from the winning bag!

You are a stronger man than I! I'd have to at least sneak them out to the range once or twice.

For all involved in the Cobra challenge and really anyone else using arccos care to share your names so we can follow along via the arccos app? 

It's pretty cool cause you can follow rounds and stats for everyone. I have a few fellow spies that are already following.

102 today. I cannot wait for the one lengths. I am so friggin inconsistent with my irons. If I didn't hit any chunks or thins in a round I swear I'd shoot in the 80s no problem. Aghhhhh. Sidenote driver was bananas today. Some monster wind I was fighting but I had one I schlammered 297 according to arccos. Also 12/14 fairways. Boom!

It's why I'm super stoked to try the stroke lab putter to see if it can help improve some more.

Putting has always been the strongest part of my game and very much a savior. 

Side note I'm curious to what everyone's thoughts on the handicap that arccos gives. I love the breakdown, but the overall is way off for me. I'm just about staying in singles around 9, but arccos has me at a 1.4 which would be lovely if true however is not.

Arccos has mine at 28.8 overall and my true index is 12.3. Not sure what to think about that.

I've played a wide range from short par 3/4 courses to championship courses. Scores have ranged from 75-91 (excluding the par 3/4 course) with a lot of low 80s and high 70s in there.

Is the par that Arccos has for the par 3/4 course right? Also, how does Arccos calculate the handicap? Is it top 25% of rounds like the USGA, or do they use all of your rounds?

Yup it is. Plus you can exclude rounds from you stats if you like. 

Not exactly sure how it calculates handicap overall. I do know it puts a heavy enphasis on strokes gained.

6 rounds from 79-89 with an average of 84. My course is 6504 yards with a rating of 70.4 and slope of 124, according the the scorecard. Not sure what all that means, but hope that answers your question.

Managed to play another few holes after work tonight. Here is a solid par but the drive was huge for me 😁

The King F9 Speedback is a thing of beauty.  I ended up going with the white bottom as I preferred the gray/white head instead of the black and yellow.  I think everyone else went with Yellow so I'm the odd duck in this one.

 

I also chose the Satin Black/Avalanche over that black and yellow thing.

As a Cleveland Browns fan, there was no way I was going to let anything that resembles Shitsburgh Squeelers colors in my bag.

6 rounds from 79-89 with an average of 84. My course is 6504 yards with a rating of 70.4 and slope of 124, according the the scorecard. Not sure what all that means, but hope that answers your question.

It does indeed. It makes me think that there is something flawed in their algorithm as opposed to a few outlier rounds being played on a super easy course.

Time for some pictures!  I don't want to bombard everyone with a ton of pics right away so I'll post a few of them each week.  Up today: driver and 3 wood.

The King F9 Speedback is a thing of beauty.  I ended up going with the white bottom as I preferred the gray/white head instead of the black and yellow.  I think everyone else went with Yellow so I'm the odd duck in this one.

I love the look of this club.  As a comparison here's what the new Cobra F9 looks like compared to my Callaway GBB Epic (original not Flash).  Heads are very similar from the top view.  I love the matte grey area on the F9 as subtle alignment aid.

The 3 wood is very similar in looks to the driver so I won't post too many pictures of it.  Size of the head is in the same ballpark as my PXG 0341 3 wood.

Any the winning shaft going into both of these?  The Fujikura ATMOS Tour Spec Black 7 in X flex.

It's definitely love at first sight.  Now I just have to figure out how to hit these things.

I've always liked the yellow/black, but that White/black is pretty slick looking. It looks a LOT better in person, and better in pictures than it does on their website
