#CobraCONNECT Challenge 3

[robertson153 2,415]

Trying to get my rounds in this week has been terrible. It has rained every day. I did play yesterday but it was very wet. It’s currently raining but hopefully it will move out soon so maybe I can get one more round in late this afternoon or tomorrow. Rain rain go away!!

Ok boys.

Package waiting for me on the porch in the dark.  Feel like a kid at Christmas. 

Big thank you to Cobra/Puma for the opportunity to try out these shoes.

As a podiatrist I make shoe recommendations every day so I will give you my professional assessment....and tomorrow I will give you my on course assessment.

First, the shoes do run a little on the large size so make sure you try them out first as they are a little big, but I just put a pair of my bigger orthotics in the shoes, and they fit fine now.

Second, the shoes do have torsional stability when you try to twist them side to side.  

Third, the forefoot only breaks....or bends at the appropriate spot where your foot would bend.  Some shoes will bend at the midfoot level which is not going to be a comfortable shoe.

Fourth, there is a rigid heel counter although it is a little on the small side so stability will be compromised a little bit.

The fit is like a sock....and surprisingly....there is plenty of room in the forefoot area to accommodate my tailors bunions.  Shoe seems to be very well cushioned.

This shoe probably won’t work well for people with really flat feet....or who need a lot of stability in a shoe....if you are one of these people.....you know it!

The insole is removable....really cheap shoes have the insole glued into place.  The only exception to this rule is a well made dress shoe.  The lasting appears as though it is quality.

This is a good looking shoe.

 

Wow, that's one of the best shoe write-ups I've ever seen. Usually it's just some version of "they're comfy and look cool." If anyone's qualified for this matter, it's a podiatrist . Great fortune for you AND US on the wheel spin. Looking forward to your on-course thoughts. 

 

 

 

Edit: Don't forget to keep your eyes on this thread today. The trivia question will go live this afternoon and the first correct answer wins the prize.

I pulled an all nighter studying CCC3 intros.

Edit: you guys probably thought I was joking about the study session

A little light stalking never hurt anyone I guess...

Here we go everyone.  You've all waited patiently for a chance to win a great prize.  The Cobra Connect challenge question is......

 

 

Sorry, couldn't resist.  

Played my 3rd round in the last 3 days this morning.  Shot 78 Thursday (and a 40 on the extra 9), 76 Friday, and another 78 today.  For some reason the driver did not want to cooperate with my swing today and I hit two balls in the hazard.  After the positive review I posted I think the F9 purposely brought me down a notch so my head didn't get too big.  Thanks Cobra, you knew just what I needed!
