Can anyone tell me if the Cobra S3 Max Irons might hit like the Cobra UFI Irons?

I posted yesterday about maybe updating my clubs from my old King Cobra Oversize set I bought many years ago to something newer.

My old Cobra's are steel shaft w/ Stiff or Firm flex which I think has been hindering me a bit since I started playing again.

I was able to hit demo a few different clubs today.  They were a few "older" model clubs, but I hit some Taylor Made, Adams and Cobra.

Nothing felt good until I hit the Cobra UFI.  It was graphite YS-55+ shaft regular flex and they felt absolutely wonderful.  I hit them easily 20-40 yards further than my old Cobras and 9 out of 10 shots were straight down the middle.  Nice high shots with no sting in my hands.  I really, really dug them.

So came home and did a little research and I see the Cobra UFI's are an older set from like 2007 and thus harder to find in a nice new set.  I have been looking at the Cobra S3 Max set with Regular Graphite shafts and I'm curious if anyone could tell me if they might hit similar?

I don't know much about shafts so I'm not sure how the YS-55+ might compare to the UST-IHS that the S3 Max's have.

I'd like to assume the technology has gotten better and that the S3 Max's would hit as good but I don't have a way to find out without ordering a set.

Maybe someone here has hit both?

Thanks for any help.

    • I would recommend spending some time at the range and film your swing. You can post it in the Member Swings thread. At the range, you can figure out how to control the driver a bit more. We can offer some pointers once you post in the Member Swings section.
    • With the H4 or the watch, you tag the club before hitting by putting the tag next to the device. The tag is on the club butt end. After a round, you don’t really think about it too much. You just do it. I don’t know how far you are from @phillyk, but he may know an instructor in your area.
    • So the biggest issue right now is marrying the hands down with an athletic turn. I can get stuck not turning. Things get interesting from there.

    • Hi everybody!  I am new to the golf game. I have taken some lessons and got fitted for clubs a couple of months ago. I usually score between 110-120 for 18 holes.  I bought a Stealth driver last year and have been hitting consistently with it 210-230 yds on the simulator. But when I take it out on the course, every drive is a severe slice!  I played 18 holes yesterday at the club where I belong. I removed the driver from my bag and used the 5 iron to drive with. I hit straight 16 out of 18 drives, 180 - 200 yds. I used the 5i - putter for the rest of my game.  I ended the day with a 92. Question: Does it make sense for me to continue playing with irons only until I get further along in my game before I reintroduce the Driver and woods again? Or should I continue to struggle with the Driver and woods and shoot in the 100’s again? To me it’s a no brainer, but for those more advanced I am interested to get feedback.
