GolfSpy_APH Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 https://mygolfspy.com/cobra-rad-speed-drivers-just-in-time-for-the-masters/ This was just posted on MGS site. Have seen other leaks and such, but nice to see some official photos up. Personally it looks busy on the bottom which is very Cobra, but I am sure if the past drivers have anything to say it will be a very competitive driver the rest of new comers to the market. What is everyone else thinking? Will this make the must test list for them? I would certainly be hard pressed to not try this one out, even if I didn't get along amazingly well with last years.

jddaigneault Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 I think it looks great! I’m interested to get to learn more about the technology they’ve added that will make this a better performer than Speedzone. It seems infinity face is here to stay. Cobra drivers always seem to be amongst the most forgiving too, so I’m excited to give this one a shot when it finally comes out. Which is...when?
