Anyone else seen these things? They won't come out for quite a while I imagine but they match the new Cobra amp wood line. First week that Rickie has had them in the bag. They look alot like Titleist 712's without the logos if you ask me though... hmm

What I play-

 

Driver: Titleist 910 D3 8.5 degrees, aldila rip 70 X

3 wood: Titleist 910 F 13.5 degrees, aldila rip 70 X

2 iron: Mizuno mp fli-high 18 degrees, DG x100 shaft

4-PW: Titleist 712 mb

52: 2010 vokey 8 bounce

56: Taylormade rac smoke 12 bounce

60: Taylormade rac smoke 7 bounce

putter: scotty cameron newport 2

Yeah, there's already a thread about them, including that observation. Golfwrx is also all over them and a lot of people visit more than one golf forum. Then there's the twitter which I've only heard of at this point.

Mizuno MP600 driver, Cleveland '09 Launcher 3-wood, Callaway FTiz 18 degree hybrid, Cleveland TA1 3-9, Scratch SS8620 47, 53, 58, Cleveland Classic 2 mid-mallet, Bridgestone B330S, Sun Mountain four5.

Gotta love the "Ricky" orange!

With that said, the club-head finish looks terrible. Looks cheap that way........they need to polish it and give it a nice finish.

My 2 cents...

What's in Paul's Bag:
- Callaway Big Bertha Alpha Driver
- Big Bertha Alpha 815 3-wood
- Callaway Razr Fit 5-wood
- Callaway Big Bertha 4-5 Rescue Clubs
-- Mizuno Mx-25 six iron-gap wedge
- Mizuno Mp-T4 56degree SW
- Mizuno Mp-T11 60degree SW
- Putter- Ping Cadence Ketsch

The satin finish is pretty popular right now.

Golf.com has a short interview with Rickie where he discussed the new Cobras.  He said the irons were actually modeled after his old Titleists, so it is no surprise they look similar.  These were specially designed for him based on the specs of the Titleists he played.

Always changing:

 

Driver: Cobra S2/Nike VR Pro 10.5º

Irons: Callaway X-20 Tour 4-9i

Hybrid: Titleist 910H 19º & 21º

Wood: TaylorMade R11 3w

Putter: Odyssey White Hot

Wedges: Titleist Vokeys - 48º, 54º, 62º

 

First round: February 2011

For us older guys check out a photo of Mizuno MP-9's and compare it to these. The profile is almost identical. I'd say Mr. Fowler has very good taste indeed! If Cobra delivers clubs like this then switching brands was a good decision in many ways. Go Rickie!

I'm not 100% sure but it looks like a raw finish that hasn't had time to rust so we're probably looking at uncoated carbon steel instead of satin chrome. I also believe nearly everything is hand stamped which would explain the rough look. Cobra has beautiful satin chrome on their current blades and I suspect if these ever make it to production they will be much more "dressed up".

Agreed, not crazy about the finish either.Either a cheap looking satin, or a raw finish that simply hasn't rusted...I can't exactly tell. Although, the shape looks good.

      Playing With Irons

      By iacas ·

      Playing irons only may lead to some short-term gains, but you'll want to at least practice with the driver if you ultimately have some decently good goals.

      This Guy Is Blatantly Sandbagging!

      By imsys0042 ·

      He plays from 68.3 / 124.  A combo tee setup of normal mens and seniors.   I play from 69.7/127.   He left after taking a triple on 14 and then leaving.  Which plays to what I think his plan is,   He doesn’t stroke on 14 but would have to take bogey for non completed holes on the way in.   Maybe that’s giving him too much credit, but he found a way to add 4 shots to his score over three holes so….     I looked up his last 20 rounds in GHIN and he has a lot of rounds at easier courses (rating and slope) that are higher than his normal rounds at home.   Since I mostly have his front nine score during the match (36) to go on, he has three nine hole scores at our course posted that are 41-43. I wrote the whole thing up to the head of our golf association who runs all the tournaments.  Our pro is not involved officially in the tournaments because the golf associations are separate from the club.   He’s pretty well known for this, however I was pretty shocked at how well he played carrying a 15.   I think eventually they will do something, a lot of people have complained.  The golf association threw someone out a couple of years ago and it was a three month situation where the guy retaliated.  They probably are hesitant to go thru anything like that again.  That is a rather crazy story I might post about later.
