I was so close to buying the i20, but for 50 bucks more i get adjustability, so yea i couldn't. If there driver had the some loft adjustments or was cheaper i was all over the i20..

I got the Cobra AMP driver + irons, and I can say that I hit the ball straighter + farther. I wouldn't knock them until you hit them. I gained almost 50 years changing my driver.

I have the irons. Again, it happened after I went into the golf store for another brand (Mixzuno JPX). These felt and looked much better at setup. People have to get past the orange.

Irons: Cobra AMP 4-GW

Been playing a Cleveland HiBore XL for years and found it time to move on. Went to the store with my club and got handed the Razr Fit first. Liked it better than the HiBore and then they put the R11s in my hands. Head to head to head for a couple hours and I walked away with another 20 yards on my drive, ability to hit it dead straight or a slight fade without effort and just something that felt great to hit...the R11s won out in the end.

Good choice on the G20. The I20 is my current frontrunner of drivers I've hit this year. Forgiving for my swing, and feels uber soft yet solid on the face. Also very pleasant to look at from address.

    • Day 299: played 18. Hit the ball well, but did not score well. I think I ended up +10, with half of that coming on 2 holes. 
    • Day 549, May 4, 2024 After lessons and working with Natalie, hit some balls for awhile. Just backswing stuff. Forgot about the slightly shorter stuff, though I'm sure it was as they were only about 75% speed with brief pauses.

    • Best drive I've ever hit: I will not be answering any questions about the rest of the hole. Or the round, for that matter.
    • I tried hybrids way back when TaylorMade introduced the copper orange Firesole Rescue, the clubhead having been made of titanium which was still relatively new even in drivers back then. I couldn't hit it well at all, and while the success of hybrids suggests that the modern ones must be quite good,  I'm perfectly happy with the 5, 7, and 9-woods.  Early ones of mine were Top Flite Intimidator 400s made by Spalding... and also made of titanium, now that I think of it.  I still have them in my basement. I do bag a driving iron, but it's a one-trick-pony that never sees fairway use.
