They for sure do not have the posh factor of say Titleist or PXG. Out west, I see a lot of Cobra so your regional assessment may be correct. ... I see a decent amount of Cobra clubs here in the Midwest, but not as much as I saw in Phoenix last winter. I have had more questions about my F9 woods than any other club I have had in my bag so I think the interest in Cobra is certainly growing. I am really looking forward to the new driver and if it is a combo of the F8 that was very accurate and the F9 that was longer and feels awesome but not as accurate, I will be very happy.

GolfSpy BOS Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 verryyy interested to see this driver. I held out from a driver purchase this year even though I really liked the F9 and M5 drivers. Hoping to save some coin and get one of those this winter, but the Speedzone will have to be checked out I think.

What part of the country are you in? At our course the only time we sell any Cobra is when they are out for a demo day. We will generally sell a few drivers then and maybe a set of irons. But for all the others, Taylormade, Titleist, PING and Callaway people will just order those based on trying our demo's or just from "knowing what they want" I am in NV. No not really effort to push one over the other. People just come in asking about it. Or, many times, I will say, "have you hit the F9?" They say "no" and then like. They also tend to like that it is about $100 less.

simpy16 Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 I did a quick Google search for Cobra Speedzone Driver and there is one image of the bottom of the driver. It is still in the plastic and the "SZ" logo looks almost identical to Tony's hat he had on in No Putts Given. I do not want to post the picture here in case it is against the rules but the bottom of the driver looks almost identical to the F9 in regards to shape, but with only 1 weight port instead of 2. Just hard to tell if this is the real deal or just weird knockoff already out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
