Probably bad news for me. FED EX shows it should deliver between 10:20 and 2:20 today. On the tracker it says in transit to Mt. Juliet TN. That's about 8 hours away from me. Probably sitting in a trailer waiting to be scanned. The excitement, the hope, and the reality of disappointment. 

Probably for the best I banged my left elbow, and it is the size of a golf ball. If the clubs were here, I would have snapped some opening photos and been off to the course aggravating it even more. The elbow should be better by tomorrow. Hopefully the clubs show up as well. 

Believe me if they were here you would know about it!  

Gah, I was feeling some major excitement for you for today, too! Mine is scheduled to be delivered tomorrow and is currently in Chicago, IL. So I should have it at the house by the time I drop my oldest off from school around 3:15pm. Might leave work early and not go back after dropping him off!

Sound like a perfect plan to me!

Same! Also saw Matt Blois posted on IG that the winner of the driver bracket was determined today, guessing video will be posted tomorrow but Aerojet LS was the ball speed winner at 182.9

Watching Matt swing is a thing of beauty!

I’ve said it on here before, and I’ll go ahead and be a broken record. I could watch him swing clubs and listen to Ian analyze shot data and turn it into ideal setups ALL. DANG. DAY.

Their dynamic is so good!

My early impressions from the fitting are good. I saw a fairly consistent ball flight from the Max, I was hitting a slight fade. I didn't get to hit the LS as the fitter wanted me in something that would reduce spin and maximize carry. I'm looking forward to getting it in and seeing how I get on with it on the course.

Will there be some unboxing? Little first impression secondhand excitement going around?

Update: Package location unknown. Never arrived at Mt. Juliet yet. Fed Ex doesn't know where it is or have an updated delivery date.  Their reply " As the package moves through our system you will be notified"

Gosh dang it, sorry, Tom! Hoping maybe someone just missed a scan and it'll be arriving soon!

[sirchunksalot]

Mine's still showing an arrival date of Thursday and I haven't seen a location update since it showed Carson, CA. Hopefully yours gets found, Tom.

Looks like you are having the same issue. Showing nothing since Carson, CA is just as disappointing.

For what it's worth, mine showed Carson, CA until yesterday when it arrived in Chicago. It got to Carson on 5/3 and then there were no updates until yesterday. Hopefully you guys will see updates soon.

WHERE WAS THIS WHEN I PLACED MY ORDER?!?!?!?  hahahaha damn that thing is sexy!

Edit: No AJ Max, so I need to wipe the tears off my face and get over it. lol but MAN alive does Cobra do a good job with their limited edition runs of drivers. My goodness!

Cobra absolutely knocks it out of the park on their limited editions. I have the PTC Radspeed and based on looks alone it'll never leave the bag, haha.

Package has arrived at its destination! Looks to me like a golf bag box, but I’ll find out later this afternoon. Is my work day over yet?

[Tom the Golf Nut]

And the winner with the first actual delivery is @Jnoble89 congratulations.  Looks like a bag box to me as well. But now at least you have something to put everything else in!

It's starting to get real now! Definitely looks like a bag, but knowing Cobra and their innovations, they've probably found a way to make a package lighter than it really is and that's the whole set! Haha, wishful thinking.

Package located. Now in Charlotte NC. Scheduled delivery tomorrow between 10:20 and 2:20 At least they are in the right state now. Makes me want to drive 2 hours and get it.

As per @GolfSpy BOS recommended, SPOILER ALERT BELOW VIDEO  
 

 

Matty lost two to penalty with the Aerojet LS and the TSR3 edged it by 3 average yards. BUT, on the last drive of the challenge with the AJ LS, he hit an absolute MASH JOB and went 345 yards with 183 mph ball speed. Safe to say that Cobra got it right this year, as they did last year with the LTDx, and they cannot be ignored when it comes to woods. Right there with and going past some of the major brands. Love to see it!
