First of all, hello to all and my admiration to this forum! i am from Spain and there is nothing no way near as this forum in my language.

As the forum, it is also hard to find good set of clubs at good prices like in US, so im buying one abroad.

Im looking for a game improvement set, and after researching in this forum, i have a question:

I have found the Cobra S3 max irons set for around 270usd, and Tour Edge Bazooka HT max (3 and 4 hybrid, 5-PW iron) for 177usd.

Prices are with shipment included.

The question is, is there really a big difference as the price says? Theres not really a lot of info about the bazookas anywhere, and in this forum when someone asked, they reccomended others..

what is the better choice? thank you very much for your time

PD: sorry for my english

Cobra are a well known golf club manufacturer. Rickie Fowler, amongst others plays their clubs on the PGA Tour. Although I haven't ever seen the S3 Max irons so I can't offer you any information about them.

I've never heard of Tour Edge, so they're definitely not a brand of clubs on a level with Cobra and other known manufacturers. That doesn't necessarily mean the clubs aren't any good, but unless you had a good reason to believe they're going to work well for you (ie. you've already played them before) then I'd steer clear and pay the extra for a known brand.

Thank you for the reply. I hadn't heard aboutTour Edge either, but saw them on a Golf Digest magazine thread about game improvement sets, and looked them up online, saw they had a fairly "cheap" price and coming with two hybrids, kept them in mind.

It is impossible to find them here in any store to try them out, so its a bit of a gamble to get them, so i might as well just get the Cobra's.

Whoa now be careful when you say they are a "cheap" brand...Tour Edge is a more affordable version of Tour Edge Exotics and they are very much known and make very good clubs.  TEE are definately as widely available as other brands but they are still very good sticks.

In cheap between " " i was meaning affordable, yes :)

Also forgot to note in the prices i mentioned, that the Bazookas are a 8 stick set, and the Cobra's, 5 stick set

new addition to the list, Callaway Diablo Edge, set of 7 clubs, 4H and 5-PW, priced at 370usd shipped.

I've seen nothing but fantastic reviews for these, but are they worth the extra $$?

thank you! :)

    • I've played Bali Hai, Bear's Best and Painted Desert. I enjoyed Bali Hai the most--course was in great shape, friendly staff and got paired in a great group. Bear's Best greens were very fast, didn't hold the ball well (I normally have enough spin to stop the ball after 1-2 hops).  The sand was different on many holes. Some were even dark sand (recreation of holes from Hawaii). Unfortunately I was single and paired with a local "member" who only played the front 9.  We were stuck behind a slow 4-some who wouldn't let me through even when the local left. Painted Desert was decent, just a bit far from the Strip where we were staying.
    • Wordle 1,035 3/6 ⬜🟨🟨🟩⬜ 🟨🟨🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Just lipped out that Eagle putt, easy tab-in Birdie
    • Day 106 - Worked on chipping/pitching. Focus was feeling the club fall to the ground as my body rotated through. 
    • Honestly, unless there's something about that rough there that makes it abnormally penal or a lost ball likely, this might be the play. I don't know how the mystrategy cone works, but per LSW, you don't use every shot for your shot zones. In that scatter plot, you have no balls in the bunker, and 1 in the penalty area. The median outcome seems to be a 50 yard pitch. Even if you aren't great from 50 yards, you're better off there than in a fairway bunker or the penalty area on the right of the fairway. It could also be a strategy you keep in your back pocket if you need to make up ground. Maybe this is a higher average score with driver, but better chance at a birdie. Maybe you are hitting your driver well and feel comfortable with letting one rip.  I get not wanting to wait and not wanting to endanger people on the tee, but in a tournament, I think I value playing for score more than waiting. I don't value that over hurting people, but you can always yell fore 😆 Only thing I would say is I'm not sure whether that cone is the best representation of the strategy (see my comment above about LSW's shot zones). To me, it looks like a 4 iron where you're aiming closer to the bunker might be the play. You have a lot of shots out to the right and only a few to the left. Obviously, I don't know where you are aiming (and this is a limitation of MyStrategy), but it seems like most of your 4 iron shots are right. You have 2 in the bunker but aiming a bit closer to the bunker won't bring more of your shots into the bunker. It does bring a few away from the penalty area on the right.  This could also depend on how severe the penalties are for missing the green. Do you need to be closer to avoid issues around the green?  It's not a bad strategy to hit 6 iron off the tee, be in the fairway, and have 150ish in. I'm probably overthinking this.
    • Day 283: Putted on my mat for a while watching an NLU video. Worked on keeping my head still primarily, and then making sure my bead is okay.
