2023 MGS Forum: Cobra 50th Anniversary Special!

[Tom the Golf Nut]

I have trained my dog to bark when he sees a UPS or FEX EX truck coming.  Trying to cover all the bases. I also picked up some new sneakers so I can run out to the truck faster! I wanted good support so as not to twist an ankle or something and delay testing and competition.

Yeah this almost had me convinced to ditch my Srixon irons for the Forged Tec, I have a feeling I won't be able to hold off long once this gets started. I keep going back to that 7 iron going 200 yards on the GC Quad vs my regular 190 with a 7 iron. That's insane!

Nothing in the system yet as far as the delivery goes, but I checked FedEx and saw this.

WHOA WHOA WHOA! How do I sign up for this?!?!?!?!

[GolfSpy_BOS]

I should prank you all and ship you something.  

Lord knows I have enough amazon boxes in the garage to make it happen!

Hahaha I was just about to post a speculation question as to what everyone thinks it’ll be! My guess is bag and/or putter as those were stock and not custom order!

[TSauer]

Should be able to click the details and get a weight, that should narrow it down some. I've played this game before

9 pounds! That’s a good sized package!

[GolfSpy_KFT]

The Maxfli Tours have reached their destination. Thanks, @sirchunksalot, for proving the needed peer pressure to order 4 doz.! @JerryB you know you want to….make it 6/6 for the challenge!

I've already said in my head..."Maybe they will get here early! No, you idiot, don't give yourself false hope! But....you never know!" 

The internal war of my mind rages on!

It's raining today.

Here's the thing that's getting in my head. Jason's package it's coming from CA and mine is coming from WA. 

It's probably different things, but the shipping info hasn't been entered on mine, so I can't check the weight.

I am pretty sure they have multiple warehouses. Because when I ordered my Grandsport Putter the ship from stated Carlsbad. CA however when FedEx Picked up the package suddenly the package made its way to Missouri.

This adds in a new variable entirely!!

Seems like this is a good sign for the testers - AeroJet on to the finals in the TXG bracket challenge:

I could watch Matty swing the club all dang day. So smooth and so much speed. The LS has been a monster in their testing, I'll be curious to see what I can do with the Max. I'm not a bomber with the driver by any means, but when I was hitting the standard Aerojet in my fitting, I hit some absolutely beautiful shots that came off the face really hot. Not my best swinging day with the big stick, but the ones I did hit well were just gone so fast off the face.

Remember I am very accurate off the tee. Don't be out in front of me at Pinehurst. Revenge is just a stroke away.

Tom, remember, the safest place to stand on the golf course is next to the flag

Well, if you are that accurate off the tee you wouldn't want your ball anywhere near mine on the course... no sense in punishing yourself with a deep rough left, or wide right into the woods lie if you can help it!

Plus... I'm more worried about @Yellow Ball coming screaming at me from 2 fairways over.  That guy never yells fore.  I think he enjoys the carnage.

I took a small clip from my fitting to let you all get an idea of how the Forged Tec X irons sound. I wanted to throw in a driver swing, but I had to send the video from my wife's phone to mine and the quality looks like an old tube TV with a bad antenna and when I put it into my video editor, sounded like Charlie Brown's teacher. 

Pay no attention to the bad looking swing.

 

 

That sound really nice.

Enough with all this package tracking stuff.  Have the teams been selected yet?  We the people want to be entertained.

[GolfSpy_KFT]

Maxflis are in! Decided to mark them with my wife and kids’ first name initials, “WMB”

May add some dots as well, but can’t find a different color marker at the moment!

Man...I really really want to but I've got six dozen Elixirs from OnCore's sale over the winter.  That's in addition to the five sleeves left over from the White Box testing and the couple other boxes from Christmas/birthday.  My wife's already mad I had to spend money on the fitting!  I'm on thin ice as it is when I told her I'm going to have to golf more often this summer!!

Best. Villain. Ever. 

Yes, I know. That’s a hot take.
