Well I took 3 clubs today to work hoping j could sneak out and get a quick range session in. (Taking guesses on the clubs, 2 are giveaways)

It was not a great swinging day for me unfortunately but made some good contact which I uploaded here. Tempo felt off and I am sure it was me and nothing to do with the club.

The feel on we’ll struck shots is second to none, far better than my 790s. Ball flight was definitely a little higher. For swinging as poorly as I was I’m surprised I honestly had any decent strikes lol.

Mishits are definitely a little harsher, plenty of thin and hossel rockets.

Going to try a get another one in tomorrow after a good stretch tonight and In the morning.

Sound is crisp, little muffled on the indoor bay

I see what happened. I didn't realize there were multiple pages and I wasn't on the first page. I did see his replies on some of his specs. I didn't know if he was the winner or was somebody else who had ordered the same clubs. Thanks for your reply.

Hit the range again (grass this time)….was not much better. Really not sure what’s going on with me.

I decided to go into tomorrows round with a mixed bag using 5/6 8/9 with the cobras and 4/7/PW with the 790s. I just don’t want to waste a round mentally with a whole new set so felt like this was the best way. 

See what happens. Would upload my session today but it was a lot of swears and deep breaths…..

As I said in “how’d you play” thread wasn’t good.

Had a few shots with the cobras and right now I can’t form any opinions with how I’m swinging. It’s not the clubs whatsoever. Had 2 mediocre strikes and they were short and slightly thin which is everything right now. 

i can say they do feel much better (I am glad I brought a little of both sets with me) on Mishits than my 790s. Initially just swinging the cobras that was not my impression but having both it was clear.

The below 9 iron was by far my best swing with any iron yesterday, was still very short though (trying to swing really easy right now, wasn’t working lol) but it felt better than anything else. Left it about 14 yards short of a front pin and was able to chip in just off the green.

At this point in time I pretty much know the cobras will be just fine in the bag. I’m looking forward to getting some kinks worked out but I have had center perfect strikes it’s just not many. Those strikes are bounds better feel than the 790s.

I hate hearing about your recent struggles, Mark. I know there's a good swing inside you and I have confidence you'll find it. 

I know nothing will bring someone down in this game like having their swing go bad, but  I believe you'll find your good one soon.

Bummer, man … even if their profiles are slightly similar to that of previous clubs, new irons do take a bit of an adjustment to get used to.

Thanks man, I’m used to it this time of year, this time of year just doesn’t give me time to maintain my good habits o develop in the spring and summer. Life’s just busy from September-December. Lots of indoor work in my future.

Bummer, man … even if their profiles are slightly similar to that of previous clubs, new irons do take a bit of an adjustment to get used to. 

definitky not the irons. My wedges are great around the green and putting is good, everything else is way off. I’m swaying a lot and not rotating well. Will work through it but it’s not the irons. 
its odd it came and went on the front 9 and. I think I got so frustrated I fell apart on the back.

this was the only hole I put it together. Forced layup. The 4 iron was beautiful and put it right where I wanted. The irons feel fantastic and when I actually hit them a great piercing flight

Pot belly’s win.

I don’t  think I’ve ever looked forward to an off season but my swing is in schambles and I need some work

My swing is the best it's been in maybe 5-6 years after this season.  BUT... I think I developed some rotator cuff tendonitis in the right shoulder (I play righty). Went to do an off season workout and now my right shoulder is in major pain.  Not sure what to do about it but I tried ice tonight.  We'll see how it feels tomorrow - my regular left shoulder is still sore from the workout so I want at least that to go away. I just want this season to go on and on and on.

So the Forged TEC-X 7i arrived, and I got a chance to take it to the range and out for 9, altho only had one good chance during play to hit it (and I caught the ball solidly but slightly right of target sent it into a tree! 🤷‍♂️).

It's a demo for now; comparing it my 0211s and may schedule an iron fitting and also take it with me.

First range impressions vs the 0211...  a bit heftier and heavier feel in the head (both shafts approx 60ish grams); good strikes are rewarded with a noticeable pop off the face .. more so than the 0211; thin or toe hits still seemed to travel in generally the right direction; and no LM data just my observations but I _seem_ to be getting a few more yards distance plus a few yards better side to side dispersion.

More to follow....

Can’t wait to hear more!

so far they feel lighter to me and the few…..very few good shots I’ve had they feel a million times better than my 790s. It’s going to take some time, it has nothing absolutely nothing to do with the irons and is all me. I won’t have very good thoughts over the next few months. 
 

ill get some simulator time in but I don’t think I’ll be hitting the course again until next year to be honest. I’m going to do some serious pliometrics to listen and strengthen some issues I have going on and then get jnto planemate and speed training again.

Have felt like I have not done Cobra justice here. Tail end of the season and not playing much. Have not touched a club.

I am going to be hitting up the simulator soon so should have some good data not just my personal thoughts on course.

After a long hiatus of no clubs in hand, I hit up the sim today.

Irons were the absolute standout. I don’t think I had a bad strike on the front 9. 

couple highlights for me were from 168 on a par 3 (forget which hole) played an easy 7 iron. Absolutely smoked to the back of the green believe it was about 180. I know the owner of the place well and he asked what I hit, he said “soon as it came off I knew it was long, that was pure”. It damn sure felt like it too.

There are 3 par 5s on the front of this particular course. 2nd shots in was playing 4 irons, every single one was in the 220 realm. Very well struck 4 for me, there was no second guessing if they were. As soon as contact was made I could just feel the ball just jump off the face.

I am going to pay attention to some numbers more next go around. This simulator (will get the brand next time) is very good and gives a ton of information. The first 10 minutes on the range impact was square. I had some great groupings with PW/8/6 irons

Very pumped for another go in the next week or two
