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

I am already prematurely jealous of anyone who gets these if there's another Cobra challenge/testing opportunity in 2024. Those are some seriously great looking GI irons, which isn't a Cobra trait IMHO. Their players irons always look great, and the GI/SGI ones not so much to my eye. These very much change that perception for me.

They remind me a lot of the Cobra F8 irons

I would strongly agree. Not my style of iron but they look sharp.

I like them. The sharp lines look really good. I still haven't done any research to understand the benefits of one length, but there must be some for Cobra to feature them in a few of the GI irons I have seen offered.

Cobras products have been calling to me for some reason.   These look alot like another companies Farfiveness irons for some reason

WITB-Foremost 551's - 3w, 5w, 5-SW (circa 1998), Top Flite 460cc Driver, Adam's 7w, Warrior GW and 60⁰, Odyssey AI-One DB putter.

Just an old newbie golfer, trying to learn and improve 1 club at a time.

I’ll sa6 it against Cobra is underrated. Been playing the LTDx Irons and they are fantastic. I think they get overlooked a lot but Cobra players seem to be some of the most loyal to the brand I’ve ever met.

im very curious how these stack up against the irons I’m playing.

Edited by PrismFlopper

Been playing for about 2 years in total. Winter breaks and a 6month period when I got sick. Starting to feel like myself again and recently played a “okay” round. 
I currently have custom fit Cobra LTDx irons/wedges, a Vokey 60(cause my short game has been the best part of my game, and a Maverick 9 deg. Driver. Driving is the worst part of my game so My 4 iron usually takes alot of the long game abuse.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.  When I started playing in the early '90s, most quality irons had pretty plain looking backs.  The irons sold as part of package sets at KMart and Walmart had backs that looked like many current irons, including this new offering from Cobra.  I'm sure they perform well but I can't help thinking they look cheap.   Not that that has stopped me from owning some of the irons with the KMart backs.

14 of the following:

Ping G430 Max 10.5 degree

Callaway 2023 Big Bertha 3 wood set to 17 degrees

Cobra F9 Speedback 7/8 wood set at 23.5 degrees

Callaway Epic Max 11 wood

Ping Eye 2 BeCu 2-SW

Mizuno 923 JPX HM HL 6-GW

Hogan sand wedge 56 degree bent to 53

Maltby M Series+ 54 degree

Ping Glide 3.0 Eye2 58 degree

Ping Glide 3.0 60 degree

Evnroll ER2

Ping Sigma 2 Anser

Cheap Top Flite mallet putter from Dick's, currently holding down first place in the bag

TaylorMade Mini Spider

Bridgestone XS
