My instagram this morning is all Cobra lol.

I dont need a driver....I dont need a driver.....Only thing I would want is a matte top again. I really enjoyed the simple top.

I am not influenced by such gratuitous photos.  Honestly I am not.  These are pretty especially in front of the deep blue sky  The weights are intriguing that one say 3 and the other 12 on opposite legs of the chevrons  And I am not adverse at all should one of these mysteriously drop into my golf bag

Hmmmm

I’m not so sure where I stand on this one.  I’ll reserve final judgement until I get to see one in person but at first glance I much prefer LTD line over this. I think Cobra crushed the looks department last year and these look worse to me. 
 

I think it’s funny that of everything we’ve seen so far Titleist is king for me and they’re just sitting back with the classic black finish. 
 

maybe I’m just getting old?

I pretty much agree, I think they nailed the looks of the LTD driver. I think the AeroJet looks good on the address position, but the bottom of the club is just lacking something. I am looking forward to settling down tonight and watching some reviews on it, though.

Name? 
Handicap?

specs desired? 
 

but also… you didn’t quote the OP so you know what that means.

I hear that might be a giveaway for closest to the pin at the June outing… better make sure you get there!

This seems to look pretty good in the TXG videos, and they specifically bring up the lack of glare off the top and how nice it looks… so maybe photos don’t do it Justice?

I wonder how big of a difference the looks between indoor and outdoor are.

I'll try to take one outdoors tomorrow and see.   Indoors compared to a polished black top the gray carbon looks much better.    

I hit the regular Aerojet as part of my testing tonight and it is definitely a solid driver.   I have said before that I am not a huge Cobra fan but I think they have a solid driver here.   It isn't going to be a top speed type of club but I felt like swing was solid and the club was returning to a pretty square position at impact.    I think after most wanted testing is over I have a bunch of drivers that I need to hit again and this is one of them.

I agree. The speedzone and LTDx were much better looking. Not bad looking, just not the colour combo you have come to know Cobra for, even though they do release some sort of red, white, and blue version.

If favoring the looks of the Titleist driver means I’m getting old, sign me up for AARP. I love my TSi3 at address.

Late updating this thread with this video, but another one done by Phillip at MGS which is short sweet and to the point. 

Give it a look!

So I am in the market for a new driver and thought I wanted the new TSR, watched a video or three regarding the new Callaway Paradym driver and everyone is saying how good it is (more so than the usual Youtube guys hyping drivers).  I've not liked Callaway's lineup the past few years but am intrigued with this one.  THEN, I saw the Cobra and again, a lot of guys are saying how good it is.  Now who the hell knows, I love this time of year and hate it at the same time.  Love seeing all the new drivers/tech coming out but can't hit any until the spring.  UGH!!!!!

It truly is a dilemma. My driver to is the G400 max and I have been happy with it, but it is reaching the age where people say a new driver will be an improvement.

I have hit list every new driver as part of most wanted and I am nog seeing increased swing speed or ball speed so we could say that the drivers are no better than what I have. Could be true but I think that each driver has nuances that make it better than older or other brands like how it reacts to you miss.

Even after hitting most of the drivers I am still unsure which one might be best. Guess I have to hit them again.

I would say between LTDx and TSr2/3 depending on what you need. Both are proven and Cobra LTDx may just find itself on sale soon with the Aerojet out now.

And then again for good measure... and one last final time before the final final time and then maybe you'll have an answer

I'm in the same boat, I have the Epic Flash sub zero, but it's about 5 years old now and it has reached the age just like you said.  Ball speeds on center hits cannot increase, however, from what I understand, there is room to increase ball speed on off center strikes...not that any of us need that.

The only problem is that is only so much storage space at HQ so the drivers will be gone. I don’t think the big box stores will like me coming in and just hitting their clubs.

I guess my taste is changing or something. I love my cobra clubs, but this Aero Jet just seems to busy. The head feels cluttered with labels and the blatant carbon matrix on the top. I love the look of carbon, but like something a bit more demure. Simple and clean is always more attractive to me. I’m curious to hear long-term how they hit, but the look feels gimmicky to me. I love the look down to the top of my LTDx peacoat/red because it is so simple but attractive. Maybe it’ll grow on me, but initial impression isn’t that great.

I have a similar impression as you. Maybe when I see it in person? However year it just doesnt stand out to me like last years or others. Altho wasn't a big rad speed fan either.
