I can you edited… but I can also still see you were first to answer correctly with the Ultramid Driver!

So it was the NOS? Man, thought I was right on that one haha. I guess it's Simi to now where they can make it without the graphics for the pros. 

Nicely done, @Bucky CC!

[TSauer]

Man, everyone is missing out on these trivia questions! Cobra swag is some of the best! 
 

The first question there were some rapid fire answers. Did everyone fall asleep or what?

Turns out the red stripes were a sticker... Haha, I saw one on eBay a few weeks ago and had no idea.

I was just looking for “Ultramid” if there was a specific version that’s beyond me. Lol

 

for what it’s worth… when I see NOS listed on older items it usually stands for “New Old Stock” meaning it’s never been sold or used before. It’s common in the vintage watch world, but I could see someone listing vintage golf equipment as such too.

Yeah, I originally just had the picture of the driver head and hit post, but edited it a minute later with the actual club model.  Guess I was a little too concerned about being the first to reply!

That's probably what it was because it was new. Good to know!

Yes, and the actress is paid quite well to put up with him!

Also... just a note... I made up all those hashtags on the spot outside of #teamchunks which has been floating around already...

 

If @chisag, @CFreddie, @Jnoble89, @Tom the Golf Nut, @JerryB, or @sirchunksalot has a more preferred option please feel free to share! 

 

 

I have to admit...#CFreddiesNightmareonElmSt is pretty dang good!  I think that will stick!

Sorry Team Showtime = Team 1: chisag, CFreddie, and Jnoble89 but I had to go with my Redneck Brothers who I will fondly christen as Team Rowdy Roosters!

Ditto to what Ben said, thanks Sirchunks!
 

I will say, aside from #LeftyGang (because I’m  a bit biased) #TeamChunks has the best ring to it. 

I appreciate you, @TSauer!!! #LeftyGang up!

[GolfSpy_KFT]

Well, 28 individuals have picked the incorrect side to this point. Congrats to the 22 that enjoy the taste of victory. @chisag, @CFreddie and I are ready to rock.

[Peaksy68]

I voted team 1. @chisag will score ridiculously well with monotonous regularity, which will just get them over the line. He’ll also go within 6 inches of a hole in one 3 times during the challenge, while at least two other’s manage a hole in one. Therefore the victory will be somewhat bittersweet 

[TSauer]

I agree with @Jnoble89 on y'all choosing the wrong side. I mean, this is what the matchup looks like:

As much as I'd like to see #teamchunks win, I have a feeling @chisag is going to give some Knute Rockne-esque motivational speeches and rally the team, even with @CFreddie in the mix.

 

... Thanks my man but we will have to carry CFredo to the finish line. Chunks, Tom and JerryB immediately voted for their own team. As did JNoble and I. Guess who didn't vote for his own team?

Congratulations testers!

Trivia time!!!

 

In 1995 this player used Cobra clubs in an emotional victory at Augusta National.  At the time, he was the second oldest person to win the Masters.  Who is this player?

[aguybadatgolf]

Ben Crenshaw 

[Fongle]

He was still using the Walter Hagen irons for that I think, and had just changed to the Cobra metal woods.

Correct!

[GolfSpy BOS]

Next Round! Trivia Time!

 

In 1997 this player used the King Cobra Deep Face driver to dominate at Augusta National becoming the youngest ever winner of the Masters.  This players impact on the game and prowess off the tee would eventually lead to Augusta adding over 500 yards of additional length to the historic venue.

 

[Preeway]

Tiger woods

[Bunker Snot]

Tiger for sure... and that thing might be smaller than a 5 wood in today's game

 

 

[Josh Ross]

Had some rough storms come through and knock out power and internet, missed the earlier trivia. Any other questions coming @GolfSpy BOS?
