These are absolute fire! I like what they did with the subtle color changes to distinguish between the three models. Really interested to hear some more thoughts on them!

I just saw this on the bookface. I have an aerojet I sometimes use. I may demo one this year. I will do my research and see if its just another gimmick or if there is an added benefit to owning one.

I could play golf every day and learn something new each time.

  • GolfSpy_APH changed the title to New Release! COBRA DARKSPEED Drivers!

I agree, that on looks alone these are a must try. I like a deep face as apposed to the thinner but wider faces, so this might work for me.
Cobra always seems to be fast, how the forgiveness is will be the main issue for most. But I'm very interested!

They've done a really nice job making the colors distinctive without making them "in your face" like others are/have. Subtle is sexy.

Yeah, I am a huge fan of DARK COBRA! In my opinion, they not only won the best-looking driver this season, but the best-looking driver of all of their releases.

And I'll probably be saying this alot more as releases are exposed!!!

This is the best looking driver release of 2024 to this point (can't wait for Titleist later this year) and I don't think it's close. I really like the look of my Aerojet Max, but these are stunners. I am LOVING the fully murdered out head on the LS model and the satin/matte crown that fades into a carbon fiber weave look is identical to the King Tec hybrid which looks fantastic at address. Also think Cobra is doing a great job with their marketing campaign so far on IG. Would love to see them grab a big market share in the driver category this year! 

I will say, though, that I don't love the stock shaft options. You can still get the Kai'Li White as a no upcharge though which is good. I don't really the higher torque numbers on the LIN-Q shafts. But that is nitpicking lol.

I'm agreeing with y'all that this is the best looking driver of the year I've seen. I don't know if it can be beat and like @Jnoble89 said the crown looking like the King Tec hybrid is just stunning. Don't get me wrong, I love the look of my Aerojet but the murdered out look is just so good.

Cobra knocked this model out of the park on looks.  Matty was bombing it on his review

This is so slick I almost want to sell off my AJ. But it could really be that much better than the AJ models? This inquiring mind wants to know.

Words cannot describe how excited I am as a predominantly Cobra player. I play Cobra, I play graphite shafts, so naturally everyone thinks I’m 700 years old. If I’m going to play like an old man, at least I’ll look awesome doing so!

Absolutely elated - great job on the aesthetics Cobra!
